Released on May 23 2016.

The Elder Scrolls Online: Tamriel Unlimited v2.4.4 is our last incremental patch on the PTS! We've continued to fix issues involving Dark Brotherhood content, in addition to adjustments with abilities, itemization, and more. We will continue to fix additional issues and make further balance tweaks before Dark Brotherhood is published on the Live megaservers.

Thanks to everyone for your continued feedback and bug reports, and we hope you enjoy this latest patch which is approximately 210MB.
