The Elder Scrolls Online is an award-winning series and one of the most successful games developed by ZeniMax Online Studios. This long-running fantasy MMO game is all set to release its new chapter, Necrom, in the summer of 2023.
If you’re a fan of The Elder Scrolls Online, you’re probably feeling pretty hyped for the upcoming Necrom chapter. With just a month to go until its release, we’ve put together a comprehensive blog post that covers everything you need to know about this exciting new addition. Be sure to give it a read to learn more about the ESO Necrom chapter.
What Is ESO Necrom Chapter?
From what we have learned from the Global Reveal of ESO Necrom chapter, the developer has made a standalone experience for its users. The storyline of Necrom is still connected to the Shadow over Morrowind Saga.
This new chapter will begin with the Q1 Dungeon DLC, Scribe of Fate. Scribe of Fate will offer 4-Man PVE Dungeons, Scrivener’s Hall, and Bal Sunnar. The player can enjoy both of these Dungeons in Normal and Veteran difficulty.
Furthermore, the High Isle chapter has added over 30 Hours of new content, including a new storyline, such as Equipment Challenges, new quests, and more.
Mysteries and Secrets Lie in Necrom
As we all know, the Daedric Prince of Knowledge, Hermaeus Mora, has many secrets protected from Mortals and Daedra. The mysteries are closely guarded by the ones who know and are at risk by unknown forces.
Now you have to discover the Dark Elves of the Telvanni Peninsula and explore a scheme that threatens reality itself. The prince of Knowledge needs mortal assistance, but can you truly trust Hermaeus Mora?
Two New Zones in Necrom
In the new chapter, Necrom users can explore two new time zones, the Telvanni Peninsula and Apocrypha. The Telvanni Peninsula is located along the eastern coast of Morrowind and is home to the house of Telvanni. If you have explored the Sadrith Mora, you would be familiar with the region’s alien landscape, including the mages and giant mushrooms.
Necrom is also known as the city of the dead; it has not been seen in an Elder Scroll game since 1994, the Elder Scroll Arena. In this new chapter, users will have the opportunity to venture into the Dark Elf city, discover it, uncover history, and more.
In the ESO Necrom chapter, users can explore new stories of Apocrypha, Hermaeus Mora’s realm, and uncover their Mysteries and secrets.

In your adventure through the Trail, you will face a strong party. Moreover, in this Trail, you will enter the mind of a powerful member of the Mages Guild, where all the wars between dreams and nightmares are happening. You just have to sort reality and fantasy through a surreal quest with danger at every step.

Necrom New Class — Arcanist
With the release of the ESO Necrom chapter, the players will have access to a brand new playable class.
This new class has awesome abilities with brilliant green energy. Arcanists defeat enemies and aid their allies with ancient magic and cosmic body horror. Like Warden and Necromancer, Arcanist has three skill lines: healing, built around tanking, and damage.
Additionally, this new class has some very hard-striking abilities, and the overall design is amazing. The bright green laser beams are very rare for the players.
Once the new class is release, you will want to level up your Arcanist as quickly as possible. So it’s time to collect enough gold coins and items for your character leveling in ESO.
New Companions in ESO Necrom
During their global reveal, new Companions were introduced to help players during their adventure through the Telvanni Peninsula. Sharp-As-Night and Azandar-AL-Cybiades are the new Companions introduced in this new chapter. These new companions are for those users who missed out on partners; these companions help you throughout your adventure in this game world.
Now let’s introduce you to these Companions briefly, Sharp-As-Night is an Argonian Warden, and no one knows his backstory. It is a mystery for everyone. All we know about Sharp is that he is a mercenary from Blackmarsh. All the memories are lost to him, but we can help him regain his memories so that we can know more about his past and what he belongs to.
On the other hand, Azander Al-Cybiades was introduced humorously in the presentation by describing his character as Willy Wonka meets Dumbledore.
You will take on the Necrom chapter with these Companions and explore The Elder Scrolls Online world with them as your partners. Hopefully, they will help you in your journey in the ESO Necrom chapter.
