Experience the cataclysmic conclusion to the Gates of Oblivion adventure in The Elder Scrolls Online: Deadlands.

The Elder Scrolls Online: Deadlands

Mehrunes Dagon’s plans for Nirn in the Blackwood Chapter were not thwarted, only delayed, and now Tamriel’s heroes must face the Daedric Prince of Destruction in his own realm. The final part of the year-long Gates of Oblivion adventure, Deadlands concludes the exciting saga of ambition and destruction that began with the Flames of Ambition DLC in February.

A Gates of Oblivion Story

In this story DLC, you can explore Dagon’s plane of Oblivion and the mysterious city of Fargrave while unraveling the Daedric Prince’s ultimate plans for Nirn and the people of Tamriel. In your adventures, you’ll experience tales and locations that showcase the life and society of those who call Oblivion home and be challenged by all-new encounters and threats.

While featuring a unique, standalone storyline, Deadlands also contains three bonus quests that are only unlocked if you complete the Blackwood and Deadlands main questlines first. During these exclusive quests, you’ll finally have your opportunity to confront Mehrunes Dagon himself and put a stop to his plans… for now.

Deadlands Zone & Fargrave

Chaotic, perilous and unrelenting, Dagon’s realm of Oblivion is a dangerous world where only the strong survive. In this new zone, you can venture into the regions known as the Burn and Sever, two equally volatile aspects of the Daedric Prince made manifest.

When exploring the Deadlands, you’ll encounter the vicious followers of Dagon and those few who’ve eked out an existence in this hellscape. With new delves to investigate, world bosses to vanquish, and a host of stories to experience, the Deadlands is a world unlike any other in The Elder Scrolls Online. Luckily for you, you can find refuge beyond Dagon’s reach.

A player hub and “safe haven” in a realm between realms, the mysterious city of Fargrave is home to both mortal and Daedric residents alike, living and working in relative harmony. This bizarre city serves as the base of your operations as you explore and continue your adventures.

New Challenges and Rewards

As you quest and explore in both the Deadlands zone and Fargrave, you’ll find no shortage of new challenges to overcome, including the patrolling Havocrel Executioners, hulking giants who walk Dagon’s realm in search of outsiders and require large groups to vanquish.

This zone also includes a host of stand-alone quests to complete, memorable characters to encounter, and a series of unique rewards that include item sets (three crafted and three zone), Oblivion-touched collectibles, and Achievements—a bounty of loot and glory for those willing to set foot in Dagon’s realm.

How Do I Get to the Deadlands?

The Deadlands DLC is free for al ESO Plus members and available for purchase for 2,000 crowns from the in-game Crown Store (listed under DLC). Note that if your ESO Plus membership lapses, you will lose access to the DLC until you renew or purchase the DLC with crowns, but you won’t lose any items or progress you earned while you had access.

Releasing in tandem with the base DLC, the Deadlands Collector’s Bundle is also available in the in-game Crown Store for 4,000 crowns and includes the Nightmare Bear mount, the Deadlands Bantam Guar pet, and Crown Experience Scrolls. You can find the Deadlands Collector’s Bundle in the Featured section of the Crown Store.

Getting Started in the Deadlands

When you have access to the Deadlands DLC, you can begin your exploration of this volatile part of Oblivion by the following methods:

• By teleporting directly to the Fargrave Outskirts wayshrine from your map
• By using the DLC tab of your Collections UI and accepting the “The Celestial Palanquin” quest from the Zone DLC section

Once you set foot in Dagon’s realm, you can explore the new zone (including Fargrave), begin the DLC’s storyline, or simply explore—it’s up to you! The first time you enter the zone, you’ll receive the Oblivion Explorer’s Headwrap collectible completely free as a bonus reward.

Update 32 Base-Game Patch

Also releasing alongside the DLC is the Update 32 base-game patch. This free update for all existing ESO players includes a host of new features, bug fixes, and improvements.

Armory System

Designed to help you effortlessly switch builds, the new Armory System allows you to quickly swap a character’s attributes, abilities, items, Champion Points, and more. With the Armory Station (free from the in-game Crown Store) you can set, equip, and organize your character’s builds from the comfort of your home.

Curated Item Set Drops

Part of an ongoing effort to reduce the amount of grind required to collect ESO’s many powerful sets, Update 32 also introduces a curation system that changes the way items drop. Now, when you defeat a monster, the system attempts to drop set items that you don’t already have in your collection.

Bring Destruction to the Deadlands

The Gates of Oblivion year-long saga ends in fire with The Elder Scrolls Online: Deadlands, and it’s time to take the fight to Mehrunes Dagon himself and explore one of the most inhospitable and dangerous realms of Oblivion.
