The Elder Scrolls Online is an upcoming massively multiplayer online role-playing game, and the sixth major installment of the Elder Scrolls series. Taking place 1,000 years before the events of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, the game revolves around three major factions fighting to prevent the Daedric Prince Molag Bal from dragging Tamriel into his demonic realm of Coldharbour.
Gameplay
Edit
The game is an MMORPG. Players can choose between three factions: the Aldmeri Dominion of the Altmer (High Elves), Bosmer (Wood Elves), and Khajiit, the Daggerfall Covenant of the Bretons, Redgaurds, and Orismer (Orcs), and the Ebonheart Pact of the Nords, Argonians, and Dunmer (Dark Elves). Most of Tamriel will be available for exploration, although portions of it are locked for later DLCs. The gameplay will be similar to previous Elder Scrolls games.
