The new Morrowind content includesVvardenfell, the largest landmass addition to the game to date as well as the first new class since the game launched, theWarden. This class is an adaptable, support-orientated option for players who want to be able to fill a specific role while simultaneously providing assistance to others.

Rounding out the new content are freshitem sets,Motifs,homesandfurnishings, collectibles, titles, and dyes. It should be noted that this expansion is being woven into the base game, so you can start a brand new character with a brand new story tutorial set in the new content. Perfect really for vets and newcomers alike.

In conjunction with today’s early access release comes a new patch on PC that brings all you need for compatibility with Morrowind as well as a new base game patch. The base game patch brings many new updates as well including updates to theChampion System, the Master Writ Merchant, Cyrodiil Rewards, a new Inverse Kinematic System, and bug fixes and general improvements to the overall game.

As a result of all of this newness, if you’ve been playing the new content on the public test server in closed beta, you’ll no longer be able to access it anymore. So it’s time to pre-order if you want to keep going! PS4 and Xbox One versions are not eligible for early access but the content is right around the corner, due June 6th on those platforms.
