Battlespire and Redguard Now Available Through PC Game Pass — August 18, 2022
Battlespire and Redguard have been added to Game Pass on PC, giving more players access to the third and fourth games released as part of the larger Elder Scrolls franchise. Notably the announcement specified that access was for PC only, likely because they were never originally ported for consoles. Besides these classic TES titles, the announcement also revealed that Quake 4, Wolfenstein 3d, and Return to Castle Wolfenstein would also be coming to the PC version of Game Pass. As a smaller bonus, Ultimate Game Pass subscribers will also have all champions unlocked in Quake Champions as a perk for their membership. Unsurprisingly considering the number of classic id Software titles included, this was timed to coincide with this year's QuakeCon.
Elder Scrolls Online Free to Play from August 16 - 29 — August 16, 2022
Elder Scrolls Online is holding a free to play event until August 29th on all platforms. This comes with the noted exclusion of the Steam version of the game for the PC version, and Xbox players will still need Xbox Live Gold to access online features. During this window players will have access to the base game of Elder Scrolls Online, as well as the Vvardenfell zone which was originally part of the Morrowind Chapter. The event coincides with QuakeCon, a convention which began as a gathering of Quake/id Software fans in 1996. id Software would begin taking over organization of the event in 1999, and after id was acquired by ZeniMax in 2009 the event began incorporating other ZeniMax properties. The free to play event also takes place at the same time as an ongoing sale of the game, set to end the day after the free to play access ends.
You can see the official announcement here, and you can learn more about this game on our article.

Arena, Daggerfall, Battlespire, and Redguard Now On Steam — April 26, 2022
As part of their ongoing move to sunset the Bethesda Launcher, Bethesda has brought many of their older titles to Steam. For The Elder Scrolls series, this includes Arena, Daggerfall, Battlespire, and Redguard. This follows yesterday's release of the Creation Kit for Skyrim Special Edition on Steam.
The version of Arena featured on the Steam store is the floppy disk version of the game, and the Steam version of Daggerfall is unpatched. Many community-compiled installers have been made for Arena and Daggerfall over the years that seek to offer a better installation experience. These installers are available on our Arena Files page and Daggerfall Files page. We also have an installation guide for Daggerfall Unity, a fan-made Daggerfall recreation.
It's also worth noting that Steam's version of Battlespire does not include that game's multiplayer mode, and the version of Redguard offered does not include HD Glide rendering. For these features, you will need to buy these games from GOG, where they have been available for purchase since 2015.
Update: Steam's version of Arena has been updated to the CD version, and Daggerfall has been updated to the latest patch (although it still lacks the CompUSA Special Edition patch). Redguard has also been updated to include Glide rendering.
