Elder Scrolls Online Summerset

Set 1000 years prior to Skyrim, the MMORPG ‘The Elder Scrolls Online’ has been building a sweeping and expansive world for players to explore. With the Morrowind expansion having released last year, it seems that Bethesda feels it’s time to open the borders for yet another piece of Tamriel. Elder Scrolls Online Summerset has been announced with loads of new features and a new epic tale to explore. Check out the re

Elder Scrolls Online Summerset will offer players new features, monsters, and a chance to join the mysterious Psijic Order. New dangers await adventurers as a story unfolds that could destroy all of Tamriel. Here is what the official announcement had to say:

For the first time in history, the long-closed borders of Summerset are open to foreigners by decree of Queen Ayrenn. But darkness looms over the ancestral home of the High Elves, and whispers stir of Daedric followers organizing in the shadows. Rally your allies, brave champions. Summerset awaits.

Explore an all-new zone packed with adventure. Join the mysterious Psijic Order and gain powerful new abilities. Reunite with old friends, forge new alliances, and work together to unravel a conspiracy that threatens Tamriel’s very existence.

EXPLORE SUMMERSET

  • Alinor
    • Summerset’s Capital and seat of power for Proxy Queen Alwinarwe. Visitors and locals alike will be mesmerized by Alinor’s shining towers as they tour the city’s many landmarks, including the Golden Gryphon Inn, the Oleanderr Coast Winery, and the bustling Riverside Market.
  • Cloudrest
    • Boldly built atop the peak of Eton Nir, Cloudrest is the home of the Welkynar Gryphon Knights and their Aerie. But be warned: due to an unforeseen catastrophe, the Divine Prosecution has been forced to evacuate the city and barricade the main gate. If you wish to enter you may need to find an alternative path.
  • Shimmerene
    • When you arrive in Summerset, you’ll find yourself in the city of Shimmerene, also known as the City of Lights. But the town is in turmoil, and before you begin your adventures or make yourself at home, it would be wise to familiarize yourself with the Queen’s decree regarding visitors.
  • Crystal Tower
    • Also known to the High Elves as Crystal-Like-Law, this sacred monument opens only to the Sapiarchs’ tower sentinels and is both a place of research and a mausoleum for the honored dead. At its apex, it holds a powerful crystal called Transparent Law, though its purpose is a mystery to all but the highest-ranking Sapiarchs.
  • Lillandril
    • Found on the northwestern coast of Summerset, the city of Lillandril houses both the College of Sapiarchs and the local chapter of the Mages Guild, two groups known for their growing rivalry. Razum-dar recommends you steer clear of them and instead put your feet up at the local watering-hole, the Shrewd Brew Tavern.
  • Rellenthil
    • If you’re looking for entertainment and excitement, the township of Rellenthil can be found in the heart of Summerset. There, you can enjoy artistic performances by the renowned House of Reveries or relax at the local Bathhouse.

SAY HELLO TO OLD FRIENDS

Reunite with old allies as you enter the tumultuous world of High Elf culture and politics. By decree of Queen Ayrenn, Summerset is now open to outsiders, but that does not mean that all are welcome, and you’ll encounter many different influential organizations and individuals during your adventures.

  • Queen Ayrenn
  • Razum-Dar
  • Proxy Queen Alwinarwe
  • Valsirenn of the Psijic Order
  • Alchemy of the House of Reveries
