Gold Road Pre-order Bonus & Edition Differences

If you're excited to get your paws on Gold Road, you might want to consider pre-ordering! This is because you'll receive a ton of fantastic goodies, which is great for anyone who really enjoys collecting mounts, pets, and costumes! Unfortunately, the Welkyndstone Ruins Pup is no longer available, as it was only until the 18th of March of this year.

If you pre-order Gold Road, you'll receive the following:

• Base game.
• The Welkyndstone Ruins Wolf mount.
• Strid River Fisherfolk costume.
• Eyebright Raven pet.
• One Diamond Anniversary Crate.
• Gold Road Treasure Maps.
• Two Experience Scrolls (which offer +100% for an hour each!).

When it comes to the other editions, there's one thing players have to keep in mind: are you a veteran or a newcomer? The upgrade version of the editions are for those who already own the previous sagas of ESO, but if you're new and want to experience everything, the Collection editions will offer you the opportunity to experience the other seven chapters! That being said, here are the options for the veterans.

If you don't care for cosmetics, pets, or mounts because you're much more interested in the adventure, that's fine! The Elder Scrolls: Gold Road has a ton to offer if you just want to enjoy your game, too! In this new chapter of ESO, players will have to keep an eye on the followers of the Forgotten Prince Ithelia while they explore the brand-new zone: West Weald (which includes Skingrad)! And for those who have mastered all, there's also a new game mechanic: Scribing!

• If you purchase the Standard Edition of The Elder Scrolls: Gold Road Upgrade, you'll receive the following:
• Base game.
• The Elder Scrolls Online Collection: Gold Road Deluxe Edition Upgrade

If you're looking for an edition with more stuff in it, the Deluxe Edition is the perfect option! In it, aside from getting all the goodness of the Gold Road, you'll also get some exclusive in-game goodies!

If you purchase the Deluxe Edition for The Elder Scrolls: Gold Road Upgrade, you'll receive the following:

• The base game.
• The West Weald Tharriker mount.
• The Skingrad Guard Mastiff pet.
• The Skingrad Vedette Armor Pack.
• Ulfsild's Tome of Legends memento.
• The Colovian Emote Pack.

And now, let's talk about what options newcomers have (and, boy, it's a good one!). 

If you're just dipping your toes into the world of ESO, you can get the Standard Edition, which will just net you the base game alongside the Gold Road and the previous expansions. Thankfully, this doesn’t mean you’ll just be dropped in the middle of nowhere — you’ll immediately unlock the previous chapters, too! This means you’ll get to explore (Necrom, High Isle, Blackwood, Greymoor, Elsweyr, Summerset, and Morrowind). 

If you purchase the Standard edition of The Elder Scrolls Online Collection: Gold Road, you'll receive the following:

• The base game.
• The previous Chapters (Necrom, High Isle, Blackwood, Greymoor, Elsweyr, Summerset, and Morrowind).
• Gold Road.

However, if you're considering getting the Deluxe Edition, you'll also get the Collector's/Deluxe Edition rewards from all the other The Elder Scrolls Online Chapters, which is a whopping seven!

If you purchase the Deluxe Edition for The Elder Scrolls Online Collection: Gold Road, you'll receive the following:

• The base game (also available in the Standard Edition).
• Immediate access to the base game and all the previous seven Chapters (also available in the Standard Edition).
• The West Weald Tharriker mount.
• The Skingrad Guard Mastiff pet.
• The Skingrad Vedette Armor Pack.
