The Elder Scrolls Online: Gates of Oblivion is another big expansion for the ZeniMax Online studio MMORPG, enriching the gameplay with an extra chapter in the campaign, allowing you to go back and explore the areas known from the fourth part of the main series - TES IV: Oblivion.
The Elder Scrolls Online: Blackwood is the next major expansion to the 2014 MMORPG, The Elder Scrolls Online. It was developed by ZeniMax Online studio.
Plot
The Elder Scrolls Online: Blackwood begins the chapter entitled Gates of Oblivion, the prologue to which was presented in the DLC Flames of Ambition. The entire story focuses on the insidious plans of the daedric prince Mehrunes Dagon.
Companions
The biggest change that The Elder Scrolls Online: Blackwood introduces is the companion system. The player's character can be joined by NPCs, who will support him during the exploration, gaining experience and growing stronger on their own. In addition, the developers have decided to expand the game world with locations such as the titular Blackwood region, the city of Leyawiin and the Shadowfen swamps. There is also a new side activity - Oblivion Portals.
The expansion also offers, among other things, new equipment and collectibles.
The Elder Scrolls Online: Blackwood is not a standalone expansion pack and requires the main game to play.
