Elder Scrolls Online — or ESO for those short on time — released update 7.2.5 for PC players today, which includes the Deadlands DLC. The Deadlands DLC brings the Gates of Oblivion story to its conclusion, but I sincerely doubt that any of Mehrunes Dagon’s Daedra, cultists, or other baddies will stand in your way. It will probably just be a nice, calm walk through Tamriel! A happy ending for everyone. Let’s take a look at some more DLC details and some patch notes!

Elder Scrolls Online Update 7.2.5 and Deadlands DLC Patch Notes

The Deadlands DLC will also introduce the mysterious and really hard to get to city of Fargrave. Turns out in this neck of the woods the Daedra and mortals are at peace, and everyone gets along just fine, probably inviting each other over for BBQs and dinner parties. Are there any tensions bubbling just beneath the surface, ones that a certain god of destruction might be keen to exploit for his own benefit? You must be pretty pessimistic to think that!

What we do know is that update 7.2.5 along with the Deadlands DLC brings a ton of new features and bug fixes. Let’s take a look at everything in the DLC first.

Deadlands DLC

  • The Deadlands includes an exciting zone story, two new Delves, two powerful World Bosses, and new wandering Executioner bosses to show the ferocity of Mehrunes Dagon’s domain.
  • Irncifel the Despoiler, Vorsholazh the Anvil, and Kothan the Razorsworn are the chosen executioners of Mehrunes Dagon, patrolling the Deadlands in search of challenges to prove themselves to the Prince of Destruction. These dangerous enemies, designed to be fought with a group of players, are relentless in their pursuit across Mehrunes Dagon’s domain.
  • In addition to the Deadlands, mingle with the many denizens of Oblivion in the city of Fargrave!
