Overall, Summerset is a wonderful expansion for fans of ESO and people looking to jump in.
Just Push Start: 4.45 / 5 by Grant E. Gaines
The Elder Scrolls Online: Summerset does a good job of giving everyone something to be excited for. Crafters have jewelry, solo players have more of the usual things, guilds get a new trial to grind and world event chasers have a new challenge and world bosses. This, plus the beautiful world of Summerset make for a fantastic experience. Sure, the trial could be harder and some other minor things but overall this is a solid expansion that will make many happy.
Hardcore Gamer: 4 / 5 by Chris Shive
For those who have been playing The Elder Scrolls Online consistently, Summerset is only a natural progression to continue with, but for people who have taken a break and are looking for an excuse to get back in the game or people who have been curious to start, this is a great place to resume or start an adventure.
The Elder Scrolls Online: Summerset Description
The Elder Scrolls Online: Summerset is an expansion for popular MMORPG title from 2014. Both have been released by ZeniMax Online Studios.
Plot
The add-on sends us to the titular island, a home to High Elves that has been closed for strangers, but with the decree of Queen Ayrenn it opened its borders to outsiders. After we arrive there, we will try to uncover the scheme that threatens the entire world of Tamriel.
Game mechanics
The Elder Scrolls Online: Summerset is a classic expansion, focusing on expanding instead of adding major changes to the game. The main feature is the astoundingly huge new area of Summerset Island, filled with adventures, dungeons and NPCs. What’s more, we can join the Psijic Order for the first time in the history of the franchise. This includes visiting their secret capital and learning their unique magic, allowing us to master new combat skills, including spells that control the time.
The Elder Scrolls Online: Summerset introduces crafting the jewelry that provides various handicaps. It also features new group PvE challenges for teams of twelve. It is also noteworthy that beginning players can access the expansion without finishing the base game or previous DLCs, with the new tutorial and starting area making sure that players won’t feel lost.
Technical aspects
Like previous expansions, The Elder Scrolls Online: Summerset requires the base version of the game and doesn’t change its audiovisuals.
