You can explore Tamriel for free during the QuakeCon 2021 Free Play Event!
The Elder Scrolls Online QuakeCon 2021 Free Play Event is now live and runs until Monday, August 30 at 10AM EDT. During the free-play period, anybody on PC/Mac, Xbox consoles (Xbox Live Gold required), PlayStation consoles, and Stadia (Stadia Pro required) can download and play The Elder Scrolls Online for free!
To join over 18 million players and discover this award-winning RPG for yourself, simply visit our Free Play page and select your platform. This event gives you access to Morrowind's zone (Vvardenfell) and ESO base game, which includes four of the game’s original classes, 23 unique zones, and countless hours of adventure.

If you’d like to continue your story beyond the Free Play Event, pick up The Elder Scrolls Online Collection: Blackwood from our Buy Now page to get immediate access to the game and previous Chapters.
If you’ve already played ESO during a previous event, you can continue your adventures as normal. Even better, all new ESO accounts created also receive 500 crowns to spend in the in-game Crown Store!
