So, it’s a little challenging to review a product that hasn’t been released fully, but I’ll try to comprehensively break down what I know thus far, as the word “pass” often invokes negative connotations in the minds of gamers. We WILL own the content, and that digital ownership doesn’t run out or expire at the end of the pass.


Pre-ordering the 2025 Content Pass before May 7th 2025 will provide you access to:


• Mages Guild Recall Customised Action (used when travelling to wayshrines)
• 10-Year Lion Guard Steed mount
• 10-Year Anniversary Mudcrab pet
• Shell-Tide Beach emote pack


If you already own all the previous expansions/chapters (Morrowind, Summerset, Elsweyr, Greymoor, Blackwood, High Isle, Necrom, and Gold Road), then you won’t need to purchase the 2025 Premium Edition; you can purchase the Standard Edition for £42.99/$49.99. If you’re missing a couple of expansions/chapters, it might be cheaper to purchase the ones you’re missing when they’re on sale, as they might come to less than the additional amount.

This might be slightly contradictory, seeing as I’ve put in 10,222 hours into ESO, but I would always recommend first-time Tamriel explorers to purchase the base game first to see how you find it before investing in every expansion/chapter, as the experience is very different and unique when compared to previous Elder Scrolls installments.

When it comes to the content released by Zenimax, traditionally, content has released quarterly with a dungeon DLC, a chapter, another dungeon DLC, & finally a zone DLC. From what I can tell, not a lot is changing:


Q1: has seen Fallen Banners dungeons (Lep Seclusa and Exiled Redoubt) arrive March 10th 2025 for all ESO+ subscribers.


Q2: We receive "Seasons of the Worm Cult: Part 1," which will release June 2nd, 2025, & we will unlock the island of Solstice (capital: Sunport, picture below) and a continuation of the main questline (which, according to the ESO datamine I was looking at, will have Altmer architecture south of Murkmire, so that is… different, lol).

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3474028086


We will get a new 12-person PvE trial located on Solstice called "Ossein Cage" that will unlock an additional 4 new sets:


Perfected Dolorous Arena

(2 items) Adds 1206 Maximum Health.
(3 items) Gain Minor Aegis at all times, reducing your damage taken from Dungeon, Trial, and Arena Monsters by 5%.
(4 items) Adds 1487 Armor
(5 items - Perfected) Adds 1096 Maximum Stamina
(5 items) While bracing, create a distortion barrier around yourself. You gain 614 Armor and enemies within the distortion barrier have their Armor reduced by 1843 for 2 seconds. Both effects occur every 2 seconds and can each stack up to 3 times.


Perfected Harmony in Chaos

(2 items) Adds 129 Weapon and Spell Damage
(3 items) Gain Minor Slayer at all times, increasing your damage done to Dungeon, Trial, and Arena Monsters by 5%.
(4 items) Adds 129 Weapon and Spell Damage
(5 items - Perfected) Adds 129 Weapon and Spell Damage.
(5 items) While in combat, activating a synergy grants you a stack of Harmonized for 10 seconds, up to 5 stacks max. You can gain 1 stack every 0.5 seconds. Increase your Weapon and Spell Damage by 86 per stack of Harmonised.


Perfected Kazpian's Cruel Signet

(2 items) Adds 129 Weapon and Spell Damage
(3 items) Gain Minor Slayer at all times, increasing your damage done to Dungeon, Trial, and Arena Monsters by 5%.
(4 items) Adds 1487 Offensive Penetration
(5 items - Perfected) Adds 129 Weapon and Spell Damage.
(5 items) On dealing area direct damage, place a Sword above one enemy. You cannot place a Sword on an enemy who already has one from you. After 6 seconds, the Sword falls, dealing 324 Physical Damage. This damage cannot critically strike and scales off the higher of your Weapon or Spell Damage. This effect deals an additional 33% damage for each additional Sword you have on other enemies.


Perfected Recovery Convergence

(2 items) Adds 4% Healing Done.
(3 items) Gain Minor Aegis at all times, reducing your damage taken from Dungeon, Trial, and Arena Monsters by 5%.
(4 items) Adds 1096 Maximum Magicka.
(5 items - Perfected) Adds 4% Healing Done.
(5 items) While in combat, overhealing done is converted into stored energy on you for 20 seconds. After overhealing 100000 Health, your energy maxes out, granting you the Convergence Release synergy. When you activate this synergy, restore 6886 Stamina and Magicka to yourself and group members within 28 meters of you. After activating Convergence Release, you cannot store overhealing for 30 seconds.


Q3: Will unlock two additional dungeons, "Black Gem Foundry" and "Naj Caldeesh." Both dungeons are available with ESO+, as all the other dungeons are. When you purchase the content pass, you will own both dungeon DLCs and you WON'T need to purchase them separately from the Crown Store. Having said that, it is within the realms of probability that you’ll be able to purchase the content pass with crowns in around a year or so, as we have seen in the past.
We will also receive the new "Writhing Wall" community event that will see the ESO community join together (split into our respective servers, so EU and NA for our platforms) to bring down the writhing wall, a wall of souls that is separating eastern and western Solstice. Even those without the content pass will still be able to participate but are excluded from participating in the quests around Solstice. I am particularly excited about this event, as I enjoy community events significantly more; the unlocking rewards after hitting new milestones are more exciting than the standard in-game events such as the Jester's or New Life festivals.


Q4: Finally, we will receive "Seasons of the Worm Cult: Part 2" with the addition of some old faces from the previous main story questline that released 10 years ago. It is always nice to see a continuation of Elder Scrolls PvE lore. I decided NOT to Mace Windu, Mannimarco, and ultimately decided he wasn’t too dangerous to be kept alive, thus freeing him from Molag Bal’s torture, as Altmer blood and life are far too precious to be spilt or lost, especially at the hands of a fellow Altmer, so it will be exciting to see if that decision comes back to bite us, lol.


Subclassing (or hybridisation):


This feature will allow further customisation of our skills by allowing us to combine up to three skill lines and is a free, base game feature. The only downside is that it will cost TWO skill points as opposed to the standard one we normally see with native class skills.

For example, I predominantly only use healers; my main Templar healer (Prince Valion of Alinor) has access to Aedric Spear, Dawn’s Wrath & Restoring Light. He only uses the Restoring Light skill line, but now, in theory, he will have access to the Wardens “Green Balance” so he can equip Budding Seeds (skill), utilising the Wardens powerful AoE healing abilities.

This customisation, in addition to the new scribing skills we received with the Gold Road expansion (and soon to become a part of the base game), is truly an incredible addition and a prospect I am extremely excited to see added. This is account-wide, & you will need to level up each character's level to a minimum of 50 (that will also include the respective morphs as well), but if you’re like me and have all characters already levelled up in their respective classes (the seven different classes), you will be ready when the changes come into effect.
