The Elder Scrolls Online Season Zero: Dawn and Dusk is Live Now!

Today, a new age begins for The Elder Scrolls Online with the launch of Season Zero: Dawn and Dusk on PC, Xbox and PlayStation consoles.

ESO Seasons will average 90-days in length, each with its own distinct theme and deliver a wide variety of content and rewards for players. Seasons gameplay content is free for everyone who owns ESO.

Check out the Welcome to Seasons trailer here

Season Zero: Dawn and Dusk
Season Zero introduces a limited-time Event Zone experience with The Night Market launching on April 30, available for a seven-week period through to June 18. Players will discover a new area in the Oblivion realm of Fargrave and can choose one of three unique factions, pledging their service in a gauntlet of challenging PvE encounters and earning a free player home, Night’s Den, in the process.

Available now is the first class-refresh for the Dragonknight, as well as over 20 Player Experience Improvements, designed to reduce grind and friction such as faster mount training, UI-based skill respecs and bag upgrades, and increased furnishing limits. Additional class refreshes and Player Experience Improvements will launch through 2026 and beyond.

Coming later in Season Zero is the long-awaited Challenge Difficulty, an optional overland difficulty system. Players looking for an additional challenge will have four difficulty tiers to choose from, each with increased rewards, when it launches on June 9. Significant updates to PvP and combat also arrive during Season Zero, such as the new Veterancy PvP progression system and a continuation of the Vengeance Cyrodiil test campaign.

New Tamriel Tome
Tamriel Tomes is a new progressive rewards system coming to ESO with Season Zero that allows players to unlock in-game currencies, consumables and collectibles as they play. Collecting and consolidating the Endeavors and Daily Logins systems, Tamriel Tomes grants all ESO players more variety and choice when it comes to earning in-game rewards. Each Tome arrives with and is available throughout its Season, and it includes free, premium (paid), and premium bonus (paid) options. Find out more on Tamriel Tomes here.

PlayStation Plus members can acquire the Gold Road Collection right now for free as part of the PlayStation Plus Monthly Games for March. The Gold Road Collection features the ESO base game, 2024’s Gold Road Chapter, and all previous Chapters, including access to the Warden, Necromancer, and Arcanist classes.
