07/20/2023

ESO is now available on the Epic Games Store AND it is free for a limited time—don’t miss out!

Starting today, we are happy to announce that The Elder Scrolls Online is now available on the Epic Games Store. Even better, for a limited time, you can acquire ESO from the Epic Games Store for free!

From now until Thursday, July 27 at 11AM EDT, you can pick up ESO from the Epic Games Store. To get started, visit the Epic Games Store, log in to or create your Epic Games account, navigate to the Free Games section on the storefront, find the listing for The Elder Scrolls Online, select “Free Now” and then finally hit the blue “Get” button to add the game to your library (where you can download and play).

This version of ESO includes five of the game’s classes (Warden, Sorcerer, Nightblade, Templar, and Dragonknight), 24 unique zones to explore, and access to PvP game modes such as the Battlegrounds and the Alliance War. Even better, pick up The Elder Scrolls Online free from the EGS, and you’ll receive the Sigil of the Alliance War Back Bling in-game Fortnite item as a bonus reward*.

On the Epic Games Store, you can also find and purchase any of ESO’s current editions, including all four versions of the latest Chapter, The Elder Scrolls Online: Necrom, including the Collection, Deluxe Collection, Upgrade, and Deluxe Upgrade.

Necrom allows you to explore the Telvanni Peninsula and Apocrypha and master an all-new class: the Arcanist. Note that if you reach level 10 with your Arcanist character by July 28, 2023, you can claim a free in-game Crown Store bundle as part of the Ascent of the Arcanist promotion. Finally, buy the Necrom Chapter from the EGS and you’ll also get access to both the Ebonheart Battleaxe Pickaxe and Ebonheart Battleaxe Back Bling in-game Fortnite items as bonus rewards*.
