Edit: Full story below:
[spoiler][quote]Bethesda Softworks, a ZeniMax Media company, today announced that its long awaited, award-winning multiplayer roleplaying game, The Elder Scrolls Online: Tamriel Unlimited, will release worldwide on June 9, 2015 for the PlayStation 4 system and Xbox One, the all-in-one games and entertainment system from Microsoft. For the first time in history, players will explore the legendary world of Tamriel with their friends on console. In the latest and biggest Elder Scrolls game ever made, players will be able to adventure alone, quest with friends, or join an army of hundreds in epic player vs. player battles as they explore and discover the secrets of a persistent Tamriel.
We are also pleased to announce that The Elder Scrolls Online: Tamriel Unlimited players will no longer be required to pay a monthly game subscription for extended play. Players will make a one-time purchase of the game and can then enjoy hundreds of hours of content without the requirement of a monthly game subscription fee when The Elder Scrolls Online: Tamriel Unlimited becomes available on console in June and beginning March 17 for PC/Mac players.
The Elder Scrolls Online: Tamriel Unlimited includes all the great gameplay from the original PC/Mac game, plus all the updates and content additions, including the exciting new Justice and Champion systems. All existing PC/Mac game accounts, open or closed, will be updated to the Tamriel Unlimited edition in March and former players will be invited back to the game at that time to experience all that is new in the world. New players will make a one-time purchase of the game and play, without restrictions, for as long as they like – without game subscription fees. Tamriel Unlimited will be supported with special, optional downloadable content available for purchase and an in-game Crown Store for convenience and customization items. Regular updates and new gameplay will be offered to all players to enjoy free of additional charges.
In addition, Bethesda will offer ESO Plus™ to players who wish to pay a single monthly charge for a premium membership service, providing exclusive in-game bonuses, a monthly allotment of crowns to use in the store and access to all DLC game packs while a member. PC/Mac players with active subscriptions on March 17 will be automatically enrolled into ESO Plus and begin enjoying its membership privileges.
“Our fans are our biggest inspiration, and we’ve listened to their feedback on the entertainment experience they want,” said Matt Firor, Game Director of The Elder Scrolls Online. “We know that Elder Scrolls fans want choice when it comes to how they play and how they pay, and that is what they will get. We have made numerous changes to the game over the past year, and are confident this is a game that Elder Scrolls fans will love to play. Players can explore Tamriel with friends, battle creatures, craft, fish, steal, or siege. The choice is theirs. The game offers hundreds of hours of gameplay with unlimited adventures with one single game purchase. We can’t wait for everyone, whether they’ve played before or will be experiencing it for the first time, to begin adventuring in The Elder Scrolls Online: Tamriel Unlimited.”[/quote][/spoiler]

Edited by Hurty: 2/25/2015 1:16:32 AMThis only got played because how overhyped it got with have the elder scrolls stamped on it
-
This is when you know your game has failed.
-
Write this down...dropping the sub will ruin the game. I can't believe they caved to all the little tight-ass whiners. If you can't afford to game, don't ruin it for the rest off us. Hello, spammers, ESO is wide open, come on in.
-
I may try it. I'll check it out on stream
-
Have gunning killing 50,000 ads and bosses just to get the worst horse in the game, unless you she'll out the real moolah.
-
This might be good news if it wasn't a steaming pile of shit.
-
Can't WAIT! Me and my friends are so hyped it's insane! I was a bit unsure back in the day when it would come with double sub, but now that there is none I'm gonna get it.

*Opens spoiler expecting a lil paragraph* HOLLY FVCK!!!
-
YES definite buy for me now
-
moving from angry joes first most disappointing game to 2nd disappointing , makes sense :D
-
Game was awful went back to Skyrim after maybe 24 hours of game play.

Edited by OminousGryphen: 1/21/2015 7:47:21 PMThe game sucks on pc I'll be surprised if it stays alive only thing I can think of is making free but even that can't help this walking simulation and if you don't know what I mean by that you haven't played it
-
Edited by Pfhortnite: 1/22/2015 1:06:10 PMToo bad it sucks.
-
ESO is a terrible game. There is a reason it went free2play.
-
Yay, a 7 minute trailer with no gameplay. Who buys an MMO based on god damn cinematics? Game was shit on PC, it'll probsbly be shit on consoles too.
-
-blam!- I can't wait
-
That game sucked. Save your money
-
Edited by m00ninite: 1/21/2015 7:47:27 PMAGREED. Coming out in June, just in time for me to be crazy bored with the lack of House of Wolves content, lol.
-
There is a subscription service that includes free access to dlc and free in game currency every month. If you don't do the subscription service you will still need to pay for the dlc... It seems like it will even it's self out in the end. ESO isn't good on PC, they claim the updates will fix it all, but it's already a dying community. This console/ re-release on PC and Mac is essentially a last ditch effort to revive it.
-
MMO on PS4? Count me in.
-
It's a waste, worst AAA MMO out right now
-
You have to buy The premium for DLC though
-
f2p doesn't make a game any better. Subscription can help the company work on the game more bringing it new content updates, patches, and overall keeping the game running and interesting.
-
Sounds like runescapes membership system.
