Elder Scrolls Online Gold

2025 is definitely a memorable year for all Elder Scrolls Online players. As the game enters its eleventh year, a lot of new changes have also come along, indicating that ESO will become better and more up-to-date.

Not long ago, the game launched Update 45, new DLC, and many optimizations, but the new season mode that was previously announced to be brought this year has not yet appeared - the good news is that it will meet you in June with Update 46 together!

ESO’s first season is called Seasons of the Worm Cult, which will run throughout the rest of 2025 (or even longer) and will bring more experience content with Update 46. Next, we will bring you relevant introductions.

Seasons Of The Worm Cult Part 1

It is expected that the season will be launched as a large whole in two parts, and the first part will be launched in June with Update 46, which will be launched on PC/Mac, Xbox & PlayStation series on June 2 and June 18, respectively. And this part of the new season requires you to have a content pass to experience it.

The content of this part mainly takes place in Solstice and its capital city Sunport, which is ruled by High Elf and Argonian. This city is located at the southernmost tip of Tamriel. On the surface, it is full of the romantic style of tropical islands, but under all this, there is a terrible conspiracy.

New Plot

Although it is a new season content, this part of the plot is actually a sequel to the original plot. The conspiracy of Worm Cult and Daedric Prince Molag Bal, which you destroyed in the original game, is about to make a comeback. This abominable sect, led by the new leader Wormblood, is doing evil in Solstice, and you need to repel them again.

In addition to the return of the villains, you will also have the opportunity to meet old friends in the new season’s story, such as Razum-dar, Skordo, Vanus Galerion, Gabrielle, and Prince Azah. At the same time, Seasons of the Worm Cult also bring new enemies, Argonian Behemoth, Stone Argonians, and a Daedra.

New Playable Content

In addition to new quests based on the new story, this season also provides you with other playable content, such as you can go to the west of Solstice to explore Daedric ruins, Nordic architecture in the north, and a mysterious magical carnival.

It is expected that you will encounter new bosses and dungeons during the exploration process. By completing these challenges, you can get Elder Scrolls Online Gold, 16 new Antiquities, and an additional 10% XP increase in Solstice expeditions within a year.

Interestingly, this season update has also developed a new feature, that is, at the key moments of certain tasks, you can make your character respond to NPCs in different ways, so that NPCs react differently to bring more task endings.

Update 46

Although the launch date is the same, this update is free to experience like all previous updates. The new content worth noting mainly includes subclasses, 12-person trial, a new Welcome Back feature, and more.

What Are Subclasses?

This mechanism allows you to merge the skill lines of other classes with the skill lines of the class you are currently experiencing, so that you can not only get a more diverse class experience without changing classes, but also become stronger to cope with advanced battles.

In fact, this mechanism also reflects one of the main characteristics of ESO, that is, the extremely high degree of freedom, which helps you to build your character the way you like.

As long as your character reaches level 50 after the release of Update 46, you can unlock this feature and eventually get more than 3,000 skill combinations, but unlocking other class skills and upgrading them requires double skill points.

New Trial Ossein Cage

There is a treasure house in Coldharbour, where a powerful Daedric relic named Dolorous Cista is hidden. The evil Molag Bal is trying to get it, and you need to work with your teammates to destroy the relic by completing the trial to prevent it from being taken away by the villain.

Welcome Back Feature

This feature is mainly set up for returning players. It allows you to skip those simple but tedious adventures and start experiencing new content directly, while providing good login rewards to make up for the game resources you lost during the period of not logging in.

When Can You Experience Seasons Of The Worm Cult Part 2?

Although the first part has not yet been launched, in order to satisfy your curiosity, we will bring you an introduction to the second part of the new season in advance.

The second half of the season is expected to be launched at some point in the fourth quarter of this year, requiring you to travel to the east side of Solstice after completing the tasks of the first part, and embark on an in-depth adventure while experiencing different styles, and cooperate with ancient peoples to deal with the decisive battle, to completely end the conspiracy of Worm Cult.

In addition, you will have the opportunity to challenge new world bosses, caves, a public dungeon to conquer, and get more new rewards by completing these contents, including three new mythic items.

If the information we provided is enough to arouse your interest and curiosity about the new season and updates of ESO, you might as well prepare to welcome them! Because there is not much time left to wait!

Since the end of 2024, Elder Scrolls Online has been announcing various new initiatives to show the game’s determination to become better as it enters its eleventh year. Now that 2025 has come to the fourth month, judging from the current performance, ESO has indeed fulfilled some of its promises.

First of all, Fallen Banners dungeon DLC and update 45, which have been launched, are the first major new content launched by the game in 2025. They have good overall performance and player reviews. At the 2025 Direct held on April 10, ESO announced some new news through the April roadmap. Next, we will introduce you to three of the main contents.

New Season - Seasons Of The Worm Cult

In the past few years, the way Elder Scrolls Online has updated the game content on a large scale has been to release a larger expansion or other content every year, but starting in 2025, the game decided to follow the example of some MMORPGs and switch to a seasonal content model. This will shorten the time between new content releases, and the development team will be able to flexibly adjust the next work plan based on player feedback more quickly.

Seasons Of The Worm Cult is undoubtedly the product of this change. It has landed on the PTS and is expected to be officially launched in June. From a plot perspective, it introduces a new area, the isle of Solstice, to bring a sequel to Molag Bal storyline in the original game, which takes place ten years later. What you have to do is to investigate the revival of Bal’s Worm Cult in the new area.

The isle of Solstice is located near the southern coast of Tamriel and is home to the exiled elves and Argonians. The area has Caribbean-style beaches and tropical forests. While you need to advance the main storyline, the season is expected to bring a series of new events and quests that can provide ESO Gold as rewards to ensure that you have a stable source of gold.

The season is expected to last for several months after the launch, which means that you may not see more new Elder Scrolls Online seasons this year, but this is the first season after the mode change, and it is common to need to run-in. In the coming years, seasons may be shorter, and new seasons may be launched in the form of remakes of old content, such as Dark Brotherhood.

New Subclasses Mode

In June, in addition to the new seasons, you are expected to experience the new subclass feature. It means that no matter which of the seven classes you initially choose in the game, you can also choose skills from up to two other classes’ skill lines to try. Considering the total number of classes and class skills, it is expected to bring more than 3,000 combinations.

The addition of this feature was announced at the 2025 Direct not long ago. Although the development team did not reveal more details at the time, it is certain that first of all, this feature will be unlocked when your character level reaches 50, and you also need to keep at least one skill line from the main class.

In other words, although a character can theoretically learn all non-main class skill lines, it can only actively use skills from two other class skill lines at a time. In addition, the unlocked subclass skill lines will apply to all characters in your account, and the unlocking of some class skill lines requires double skill points, but as long as you play the game frequently, this point is not difficult to obtain.

New Experimental Content

Although a lot of new content has been announced, the development team seems not satisfied with this and is still trying more possibilities. For example, they want to launch a new full-server event around this summer, based on the isle of Solstice, and set up a magic barrier called Writhing Wall here to divide Solstice into two. You and other players need to defend the island from the invasion of Worm Cult by collecting resources and finally break through the wall to unlock the second half of Solstice.

Another test content worth noting is Cyrodiil Champions, which ended on March 31. This is a test content launched by ESO for the overload problem that has existed in Cyrodiil’s PVP mode for many years. As one of the features of the game, this mode is completely necessary to be optimized.

In the test conducted from March 24 to 31, Cyrodiil Champions initially solved the original problem by significantly improving performance and greatly simplifying the skills and attributes of all players in Cyrodiil PVP mode. This not only means the success of the test, but also represents a milestone in the development process of the entire ESO. Even Cyrodiil Champions itself is expected to become a more mature in-game feature.

In addition, in order to fully ensure the gaming experience of different player groups, the game’s tutorials and novice areas are also being updated, and Welcome Back system will be launched this summer. ESO development team said that this will be a task-based and reward-oriented system.

In short, Elder Scrolls Online has proved to you with practical actions that they are indeed committed to developing the game better, and all you have to do is believe them and enjoy the game!
