Not many games last a decade, but Zenimax Online Studios is nowhere near done yet — here's what the company is promising for Elder Scrolls Online next, and when you can play itTech20:30, 10 Apr 2025ESO is still growing, even after a decade(Image: Bethesda Softworks/ZeniMax Media )The start of the PS4 and Xbox One generation saw a gold rush of games-as-a-service and console MMOs, but few stand as tall a decade later as The Elder Scrolls Online.The game has seen dozens of huge updates, adding whole landmasses, locations from other Elder Scrolls titles, and more loot than you can shake a Daedric Prince at.‌Article continues belowWe've hunted vampires, slain dragons, battled through dungeons and much, much more, and Zenimax Online Studios isn't done yet. Today, the studio revealed the latest updates coming to Elder Scrolls Online and no, there's no Oblivion remaster in sight.Solstice is the new location this year(Image: Bethesda Softworks/ZeniMax Media )Throughout much of ESO's lifespan, the team at Zenimax Online Studios has introduced regular expansions, but the team is shifting things a little.‌2025 will kick off the Seasons of the Worm Cult, which takes place on new location the island of Solstice. Rather than offering a sort of fresh start, however, it's a direct sequel to the base game's story from all those years ago.Solstice is divided by the mysterious Writhing Wall, which will lend itself to the game's first-ever server-wide event later this year as players work to unlock the second half of the Seasons of the Worm Cult story by breaking through to the other side.More dungeons are coming(Image: Bethesda Softworks/ZeniMax Media )‌It's an ambitious plan, but the studio is quick to confirm you don't have to complete the base game's story to jump in with this one. Both parts of the Seasons of the Worm Cult storyline are included in the 2025 content pass, with the first half available in June.The 2025 Content Pass and 2025 Premium Edition also includes a pair of Dungeon Packs. Fallen Banners is available now, while Feast of Shadows is slated for Fall of this year. Both include two PvE four-player dungeons.Expect big bosses to tackle(Image: Bethesda Softworks/ZeniMax Media )‌If you're a lapsed player, there's plenty arriving for free to tease you back into Elder Scrolls Online.Alongside the new paid content in June, Update 46 will introduce major changes for all players for free. Hero's Return is a new system that's aiming to make the process of getting back into ESO more streamlined, easing players back into systems they haven't touched in a while, or tutorialising new ones that have been added since.The devs have teased returning characters(Image: Bethesda Softworks/ZeniMax Media )‌It's the kind of thing we wish more long-running games would do, in truth, but that's not all.A new Subclassing system will let players replace up to two of their character's Skill Lines with options from other classes, letting them create a hybrid class that's all their own. These skills will cost more than those native to a character to help balance things out, but it could blow buildcrafting wide open once the community gets their hands on it.With something new for old and fresh players alike, Elder Scrolls Online is showing no signs of slowing down in its 'old' age — and long may it continue.Article continues belowFor the latest breaking news and stories from across the globe from the Daily Star, sign up for our newsletters.‌‌‌
