Elder Scrolls Online Global Reveal Event Delayed — January 13, 2021

Similarly, those who watch live on the 26th will still receive the Viridescent Dragon Frog pet and an Ouroboros Crate for ESO if they watch from a linked account.
The show itself will provide a look at the new content coming in 2021, with additional information being provided by Creative Director Rich Lambert, Art Director CJ Grebb, and Loremaster Leamon Tuttle during the presentation.

A brief teaser trailer for the upcoming year of content for Elder Scrolls Online has been released. The trailer features an Argonian and Eveli Sharp-Arrow unconscious, next to a book with the Daedric Oht being burned onto its cover.
