The Elder Scrolls: Castles October Update
The Elder Scrolls: Castles
The Elder Scrolls: Castles is getting an exciting update today just in time for Halloween.
With this update, we’re adding some highly requested features into the game as well as a series of Halloween-themed events and some very spooky décor to help you get in the mood for the festivities!
Happy Halloween
The Witch Festival is upon us!
The Elder Scrolls: Castles is celebrating Halloween with the Witch Festival, in full force from October 21 to November 4.
In this six-part, spooky-themed event, the mysterious Morga the Witch joins your Castle as a new subject. With these new story lines and quests, expect intrigue, magic and plot twists!
Along with some haunting music, we’re adding some cool new witchy décor for your Castle, including the Witch’s Brew, Creepy Curiosities, Gargoyle Statue, Hallowjack Lanterns and Bone Throne.
Game Updates
Along with spookily decorating your castle for the Witch Festival, this update includes a handful of highly requested quality of life updates to the game. Here are some highlights of what’s in October Update.
Friends and Leaderboards
Now you can compare progress with your friends on a given platform, and other Castles players all over the world! As of today, we have implemented a leaderboard system that tracks player scores based on a new algorithm (your “Castle Score”). This new system also tracks progress in Sheogorath's Gauntlet (based on highest wave reached).
Please note that, with the launch of the leaderboards, we are resetting all high scores.
Updates to Sheogorath's Gauntlet
We have also made updates to the Gauntlet. Now, you can select between favors every three waves to help your subjects fight on in the Gauntlet. In addition, wave bosses will appear every ten waves.
You have the opportunity to receive Sheogorath's Loot packs, a unique drop in this mode, guaranteed to include a rare, epic or legendary piece of gear to further your ventures beyond the Castle walls.
Extra Dynasty Levels
With this update, we’ve included more dynasty levels because you are all just too good at playing Castles . Now Dynasty levels go up to 300, so get out there and keep building your dynasty!
Bring Subjects Back from the Dead
We also know that losing a special subject can be hard, so now we have given you the necromantic power to resurrect any subjects you want to bring back.
You can resurrect subjects with Soul Gems, which you can get from Legendary Loot Boxes and Heirlooms. The Gems will also be available for purchase in the Castles store at a later date.
The resurrection applies to situations where your favorite subject has died of old age or while you were attending to real-world duties, and of course, when they’re assassinated. They can now live again!

You can now link your accounts on Castles. To play the same Castles account on a different device, you can follow the instructions below:
