The Elder Scrolls Online DLC ‘Imperial City’ Details Revealed

Bethesda has put out a host of details for its upcoming DLC expansion for The Elder Scrolls Online. Dubbed the Imperial City, the DLC is set to add a ton of new content to the game, which was released earlier this year on the PS4 and Xbox One.

The content is set for release on August 31 for the PC, followed by September 15 and 16 for Xbox One and PlayStation 4. The full DLC is included with an active Elder Scrolls Online Plus membership, and can be bought through the Tamriel Unlimited Crown Store for 2,500 coins, or $25. 

Picking up the pack will grant you entry to the new Imperial City zone, which offers a new player-versus-player and player-versus-environment space. Much like in Oblivion, it's made up of six districts. 

Other content includes the Xivkyn racial motif style for armor, new pets, polymorphs, and some other goodies. Here's what it offers, in full:
