The Elder Scrolls Online: Summerset is coming to PC/Mac on May 21. Here's everything you need to know about each of the different Chapter editions and the bonus rewards you'll get for pre-purchasing.
Pre-Purchase Rewards
You can pre-purchase The Elder Scrolls Online: Summerset via The Elder Scrolls Online official site. When pre-purchasing the new Summerset Chapter, there's a host of unique in-game rewards you can receive.
Queen's Bounty Pack
All pre-purchases (physical or digital) will receive the Queen's Bounty Pack. This pack contains the following items:
Court of Bedlam Costume: An exclusive costume with a sinister style, available to all classes.
Pocket Salamander Pet: Express your inner newt with this non-combat in-game pet.
Treasure Maps: These three ancient maps lead to caches of loot: gear, gold, and other forgotten riches.
Psijic Vault Crown Crate: Open for a chance at Psijic-themed mounts, pets, costumes, and more.
Experience Scrolls: Receive a 50% experience boost for two hours with these two Experience Scrolls.
You will receive the Queen's Bounty Pack when ESO: Summerset launches on May 21 for PC/Mac.
Immediate Access to the ESO base game
If you are a new player who has pre-purchased ESO: Summerset digitally, you will receive immediate access to the ESO base game and can start playing right away. Access to the Summerset Chapter will be available on launch day.

A unique story, where you must help the demi-god Vivec restore his lost power

Ancient monsters rise to plague Tamriel anew in Dragon Bones, The Elder Scrolls Online's newest DLC game pack. Check out everything you need to know about this new adventure and Update 17 in our launch article!
We are thrilled to announce that the Dragon Bones DLC game pack and Update 17 are both live on PC/Mac. This new adventure and base-game update includes:
Two new dungeons: Scalecaller Peak and Fang Lair
The Outfit System
Home Storage
A new Level-Up Experience
Combat improvements
Two new Battlegrounds: Deeping Drome and Mor Khazgur
This new DLC is available free-of-charge for all ESO Plus™ members or for purchase with crowns from the in-game Crown Store. The Update 17 base-game patch arrives free for all ESO players. Want to celebrate the release of Dragon Bones with us? Download the official wallpaper.
Dragon Bones DLC Game Pack
With the Dragon Bones DLC game pack, you will be able to explore two all-new four-player dungeons.
Scalecaller Peak
Zaan the Scalecaller has returned with a new patron, the Daedric Prince of Pestilence, Peryite. With her new master's help, she threatens to unleash a deadly new plague upon all of Tamriel. You must enter the long-abandoned temple of Scalecaller, battle your way through plague-twisted monsters and cultists, face the resurrected Dragon Priest, and put a stop to her vile plans.
Fang Lair
The lost Dwarven ruins of Fang Lair were once the final resting place of the mighty dragon Thurvokun. Now, it is inhabited by a dangerous Necromancer cult and their monstrous creations. However, the Blackmarrow Cult wants more than lost treasure: they aim to reanimate the bones of the long-dead Dragon himself! Make your way through the lost site and stop the powerful Necromancer Orryn the Black before he can bring his terrible new weapon to bear on the people of Tamriel.
Both of these new dungeons can be completed in normal or veteran difficulties and contain a veteran hard mode option for those groups who truly want to be challenged. Each dungeon has its own unique rewards, too, including new gear sets, monster sets, achievements, costumes and skins, and, of course, trophies.
Purchase Details
The Dragon Bones DLC game pack is completely free to ESO Plus members or available for purchase for 1500 crowns from the in-game Crown Store. To buy the pack, navigate to the in-game Crown Store and find it in the DLC section.
Note that if your ESO Plus membership lapses, you will lose access to the DLC game pack until it is renewed or purchased with crowns. You will not lose any items or rewards you earned while you had access. ESO: Morrowind is not required in order to purchase and enjoy the Dragon Bones DLC game pack.
Dragon Bones Collector's Bundle
In addition to the DLC game pack, the Dragon Bones Collector's Bundle is available for 4000 crowns from the in-game Crown Store.
This bundle includes the DLC game pack, the Fang Lair Courser mount, the Small Bone Dragon Construct pet, and five Crown Experience Scrolls. You can find and purchase the Dragon Bones Collector's Bundle in the Featured section of the Crown Store.
Explore New Dungeons & Earn a Free Hat
Once you have access to the Dragon Bones DLC game pack, you can delve into Fang Lair or Scalecaller Peak by the following methods:
By teleporting directly to the two new dungeons from your map
By using the Dungeon Finder tool
By walking up to the dungeons and clicking on the entrance in Bangkorai (Fang Lair) and in Stormhaven (Scalecaller Peak)
Are you inspired by the venerable Dragon Priests of legend? You can dress like the ancient stewards of the dragons with the Renegade Dragon Priest Mask. This new hat will be automatically added to your Collections the first time you set foot in either one of the two new dungeons, completely free!
Update 17 For All
The Update 17 base-game patch will also arrive alongside the Dragon Bones DLC game pack as a free update for all ESO players. This update contains a host of amazing new features and improvements to The Elder Scrolls Online that everybody can enjoy.
Outfit System
Be who you want to be with the new Outfit System! Now, you can completely customize almost every aspect of your appearance with unique Outfits, regardless of the gear you are wearing. You will have one free Outfit that you can customize at a cost of gold, but should you wish, you can purchase additional Outfits and Outfit Change Tokens (allowing you to save gold) from the in-game Crown Store. To begin customizing your Outfit, locate a new Outfit Station (previously known as Dye Stations).
With Update 17, we are also introducing a new home furnishings type: storage containers. With storage containers, you can finally store bankable items in your own homes, freeing up space from your bank, inventory, or craft bag. You can earn the first of these by leveling a character to level 18 and receiving it as a level-up reward, but there are seven additional containers you can acquire from in-game vendors and the Crown Store.
You can learn more about Home Storage in this feature article.
New Level-Up Experience
In order to help players better understand the game and how to develop their characters, we've introduced a new level-up experience. Now, when you level up in The Elder Scrolls Online, you'll receive unique rewards and helpful gameplay tips to help you on your adventures. In addition to this, we've created a new Skills Advisor tool that you can use to help pick your character's skills and abilities based on a desired archetype.
You can find out more about this new system in our feature article.
Combat Improvements
In addition to the new features above, we've made some dramatic changes to ESO's combat system. These changes include improvements to Synergies, the removal of area-of-effect caps, changes to block costs, changes to cast-time abilities and interrupts, and changes to how Heavy Attacks and the Off Balance mechanic work.
These changes are designed to make combat in ESO even more responsive, tactical, and skillful, and you can learn more about them in our feature article.
New PvP Battlegrounds For You To Conquer
Update 17 will also arrive with two brand-new PvP Battlegrounds. These new arenas will test you and your PvP team in new and different ways.
Mor Khazgur
This Orc stronghold has seen more than its fair share of conflict over the ages, but thanks to its precarious ledges and limited visibility, it is now the perfect arena for 4v4v4 battles.
Deeping Drome
Set deep beneath Tamriel, this cavernous arena is illuminated by the glow of the surrounding mushrooms, lighting your way through its tight corners and winding pathways.
You and your allies can access both Battlegrounds via the regular Grab Bag Battlegrounds queue in your Group & Activity Finder. Note that you must have ESO: Morrowind installed in order to participate in Battlegrounds matches.
Ancient Threats Rise Again
The dead don't always stay dead. In Dragon Bones, long-forgotten powers have returned to once again plague Tamriel. Will you answer the call of the Undaunted and venture into Scalecaller Peak and Fang Lair? Let us know on Twitter @TESOnline and Facebook!

Zaan the Scalecaller has returned with a new patron, the Daedric Prince of Pestilence, Peryite. With her new master's help, she threatens to unleash a deadly new plague upon all of Tamriel. You must enter the long-abandoned temple of Scalecaller, battle your way through plague-twisted monsters and cultists, face the resurrected Dragon Priest, and put a stop to her vile plans.
Fang Lair
The lost Dwarven ruins of Fang Lair were once the final resting place of the mighty dragon Thurvokun. Now, it is inhabited by a dangerous Necromancer cult and their monstrous creations. However, the Blackmarrow Cult wants more than lost treasure: they aim to reanimate the bones of the long-dead Dragon himself! Make your way through the lost site and stop the powerful Necromancer Orryn the Black before he can bring his terrible new weapon to bear on the people of Tamriel.
Both of these new dungeons can be completed in normal or veteran difficulties and contain a veteran hard mode option for those groups who truly want to be challenged. Each dungeon has its own unique rewards, too, including new gear sets, monster sets, achievements, costumes and skins, and, of course, trophies.
Purchase Details
The Dragon Bones DLC game pack is completely free to ESO Plus members or available for purchase for 1500 crowns from the in-game Crown Store. To buy the pack, navigate to the in-game Crown Store and find it in the DLC section.

Explore New Dungeons & Earn a Free Hat
Once you have access to the Dragon Bones DLC game pack, you can delve into Fang Lair or Scalecaller Peak by the following methods:
By teleporting directly to the two new dungeons from your map
By using the Dungeon Finder tool
By walking up to the dungeons and clicking on the entrance in Bangkorai (Fang Lair) and in Stormhaven (Scalecaller Peak)
Are you inspired by the venerable Dragon Priests of legend? You can dress like the ancient stewards of the dragons with the Renegade Dragon Priest Mask. This new hat will be automatically added to your Collections the first time you set foot in either one of the two new dungeons, completely free!
Update 17 For All
The Update 17 base-game patch will also arrive alongside the Dragon Bones DLC game pack as a free update for all ESO players. This update contains a host of amazing new features and improvements to The Elder Scrolls Online that everybody can enjoy.
Outfit System
Be who you want to be with the new Outfit System! Now, you can completely customize almost every aspect of your appearance with unique Outfits, regardless of the gear you are wearing. You will have one free Outfit that you can customize at a cost of gold, but should you wish, you can purchase additional Outfits and Outfit Change Tokens (allowing you to save gold) from the in-game Crown Store. To begin customizing your Outfit, locate a new Outfit Station (previously known as Dye Stations).
With Update 17, we are also introducing a new home furnishings type: storage containers. With storage containers, you can finally store bankable items in your own homes, freeing up space from your bank, inventory, or craft bag. You can earn the first of these by leveling a character to level 18 and receiving it as a level-up reward, but there are seven additional containers you can acquire from in-game vendors and the Crown Store.
You can learn more about Home Storage in this feature article.
New Level-Up Experience
In order to help players better understand the game and how to develop their characters, we've introduced a new level-up experience. Now, when you level up in The Elder Scrolls Online, you'll receive unique rewards and helpful gameplay tips to help you on your adventures. In addition to this, we've created a new Skills Advisor tool that you can use to help pick your character's skills and abilities based on a desired archetype.
You can find out more about this new system in our feature article.
Combat Improvements
In addition to the new features above, we've made some dramatic changes to ESO's combat system. These changes include improvements to Synergies, the removal of area-of-effect caps, changes to block costs, changes to cast-time abilities and interrupts, and changes to how Heavy Attacks and the Off Balance mechanic work.
These changes are designed to make combat in ESO even more responsive, tactical, and skillful, and you can learn more about them in our feature article.
New PvP Battlegrounds For You To Conquer
Update 17 will also arrive with two brand-new PvP Battlegrounds. These new arenas will test you and your PvP team in new and different ways.
Mor Khazgur
This Orc stronghold has seen more than its fair share of conflict over the ages, but thanks to its precarious ledges and limited visibility, it is now the perfect arena for 4v4v4 battles.
Deeping Drome
Set deep beneath Tamriel, this cavernous arena is illuminated by the glow of the surrounding mushrooms, lighting your way through its tight corners and winding pathways.
You and your allies can access both Battlegrounds via the regular Grab Bag Battlegrounds queue in your Group & Activity Finder. Note that you must have ESO: Morrowind installed in order to participate in Battlegrounds matches.
Ancient Threats Rise Again
The dead don't always stay dead. In Dragon Bones, long-forgotten powers have returned to once again plague Tamriel. Will you answer the call of the Undaunted and venture into Scalecaller Peak and Fang Lair? Let us know on Twitter @TESOnline and Facebook!
