We're off to meet the High Elves!

A few days ago, the latest expansion for The Elder Scrolls Online launched on PC. Today, the content is available on Xbox One. Summerset is the next chapter for the game and takes players to the incredible Isle of Summerset to explore the home of the High Elves for the first time since 1994's The Elder Scrolls: Arena. The expansion includes a massive new zone, main story, skill line based on the mysterious Psijic Order mages, and the introduction of jewelry crafting.

The game features Xbox One X and PlayStation 4 Pro support as well. It pushes both consoles to native 4K resolution with added visual effects on Microsoft's latest console.

The Elder Scrolls Online takes place in one connected world where you can stay up to date with everything your friends are doing. Whether you play alone or with companions, the game's combat system allows you to focus on action and tactics. You can use any weapon at any time, no matter what class, and customize your abilities to play the way you want. There are hundreds of quests and other activities to engage in. The goal is to uncover the mysteries of Tamriel and seek heroic quests on your own schedule. You can explore the far reaches of Skyrim, the mysterious lands of Morrowind, or the sprawling metropolis of Daggerfall. Despite its missteps at launch, The Elder Scrolls Online is now an expansive experience all gamers can enjoy.

Gamers can purchase Summerset for $39.99 at various retailers.

  • On the plus side, it adds a load of content, looks beautiful and the accompanying patch adds a lot to the game that even people who didn't buy it can get something out of. On the downside, it bent the performance over a barrel, pulled down its pants and shouted 'Call me daddy'!!! Serious memory management issues mean that after an hour or so of play it begins fitting and starting (even on a One X) and so much so, I nearly called an ambulance because I thought I was having a seizure. Hopefully it'll get fixed in the next patch because that first hour was awesome (even if I found the Augur of the Obscure to be as annoying and 'funny' as Korg from 'Thor: Ragnarok')...
