Elder Scrolls Online's First Expansion Out Now on PC, Hitting Consoles Soon

The world of The Elder Scrolls Online is growing.

Bethesda this week released the MMO's first major expansion, Imperial City, for PC and Mac. It's coming to Xbox One on September 15 and PlayStation 4 a day later on September 16. That's just a couple weeks away.

Imperial City introduces "hours" of new gameplay to the fantasy MMO, spanning new areas, quests, enemies, and items. In terms of story, the Imperial City has been overrun by Daedric Prince Molag Bal, and players must fight the new Daedric forces and also each other.

The expansion is included with an ESO Plus Membership or can be purchased separately for $20.

"The Imperial City is special," creative director Rich Lambert said. "Not only because it's our first DLC, but because it's a huge milestone for us as a studio. We are now able to shift our focus from business model changes and console launch to creating new, meaningful content. It's the first of many new quarterly DLC game packs, and we couldn't be more thrilled."
