Elder Scrolls Online Global Reveal Event Delayed — January 13, 2021
The Elder Scrolls Online team has announced that the previously planned reveal event for the upcoming Gates of Oblivion story arc has been delayed. Originally scheduled for January 21st at 5PM ET on Bethesda's Twitch Channel, the preview will now be held on January 26th at 5PM on the same channel. The ESO team stated the change was due to the majority of their team living near the US Capital. Beyond the time change, the event appears to be sticking to its original plan of featuring Matt Firor and Pete Hines officially announcing the new chapter, before Jessica Folsom and Gina Bruno from the ESO Community Team take over after their presentation. 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.

The UESP and Imperial Library interview Modiphius Entertainment — December 28, 2020

From December 17 to January 5, the New Life Festival event has returned to Elder Scrolls Online. By completing seasonal event quests, you can earn tickets to spend on any of the four indrik evolutions that have been released in 2020, including the final berry towards the Crimson Indrik mount. This is the last event where indrik feathers will be available, so be sure to purchase an extra set if you wish to keep an unevolved Nascent Indrik.

The Elder Scrolls Online: Gates of Oblivion Trailer Revealed — December 10, 2020
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. With the Oht now present on its cover, the book bears a notable resemblance to the Mysterium Xarxes. As the trailer goes on, various visions of grim locales pass by, seemingly causing Eveli to feel pain, before finally ending on a final shot of Mehrunes Dagon being confronted by Eveli. As Dagon turns to face her, Eveli wakes up, revealing the pupils of her eyes have been transformed into crosses.
You can see the trailer here. A larger preview will be held on Thursday, January 21st at 5PM EST over on Bethesda's Official Twitch.

Elder Scrolls Online Will Not Support New ARM-based Macs — November 17, 2020
The Elder Scrolls Online team has announced that they will not be supporting the new ARM-based Macs in the future. Last summer Apple announced that their new Macs would stop using Intel CPUs, a change that would require all software running on Macs to either be rewritten, or run through an emulator. Matt Firor, the Studio Director for ZeniMax Online Studios has stated that they will not be porting ESO due to the difficulties inherent with that undertaking. At the same time, he has also stated that Intel-based Macs will remain supported for as long as there are enough users to justify it.
While ESO could be run on the new Macs through emulation, this experience is not going to be officially supported by ZeniMax. The official announcement can be seen here.
