Bethesda has announced The Elder Scrolls Online Gold Edition will be available from September 9. This version of the game will give players "an opportunity to gain immediate access to the entire story, all four major DLC game packs, and updates" for the multiplayer online RPG.

TESO Gold Edition will feature the core game content, along with the Imperial City, Orsinium, Thieves Guild, and Dark Brotherhood DLC expansions. These introduce new quests, abilities, and locations. Additionally, it will contain a Palomino horse mount.

Gold Edition will be available for PC and consoles.

The next major content update for The Elder Scrolls Online is called called Shadows of the Hist, and features two new Argonian-themed dungeons, a style parlor, and costume dyeing, among other things.

The new new four-player dungeons are called Ruins of Mazzatun and Cradle of Shadows. These will be free for players with an active ESO Plus membership, or can be purchased through the DLC Dungeon Pack, which will go for 1,500 crowns.

The style parlous, meanwhile, adds a new microtransaction that lets players change their appearance or race. Players will be able to "completely redefine" their character's appearance, including their hair style and color, as well as face, body markings, eye color, age, and voice. Pricing was not announced for these items.

This update launches on August 1 for PC and Mac, and comes to PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on August 16. Its release will coincide with a base-game patch for all players that includes all of the changes listed here.
