ESO on 2 PS4s in the same household

mrgrieves

I'm lucky enough to have 2 PS4s so can play online games with my good lady in the same room. She plays on my primary account's ps4 logged in as herself, I play on her primary account logged in as me, so we can share content like ESO which I buy on my account specifically for us to play together, without me having to pay twice.

In the last sale, I bought the Eisweyr upgrade DLC. However, whilst I have access to this plus Morrowind and various othe things, she does not. After a bit of research it seems that this is just the way it is - a bit of a pain but I'm not here to rant about it.

I see Eisweyr is on sale again, so was considering buying it a 2nd time for her, but I'm not sure how to do it. Can I buy the ugprade on her account, or would I need to buy the full game? Would I need to reinstall from scratch or should it just pick up the changes? I obviously don't want to mess with either of our online characters.

I get the crown store stuff (which I want to steer clear of as it's incredibly expensive), but this is on PSN store only afaik.

For her to gain access to Elsweyr on her account, you will need to purchase the Elsweyr DLC will under her PS4 account.

Great, thanks - can I just buy the Eisweyr CE Upgrade? I don't need to buy the full edition?

You can review our FAQ here for what version of Elsweyr to purchase.

Thanks for the link, but that's not really what I was asking. Apologies if I wasn't clear enough.

My other half has not bought the base game on her account, she is playing using the version I bought on my account which I share with her. (Like this: https://www.ign.com/wikis/playstation-4/How_to_Game-Share_with_Family_and_Friends)

Can I buy the *upgrade* to Eisweyr on her PS4 to unlock the extra content, or do I need to buy the full version (ie the one thst includes the base game as well)?

I read elsewhere that the full Eisweyr CE edition has the Morrowind and Summer Isles CE editions with it, whereas the ugprade does not. So I bought my other half the full CE edition. I didn't have to do anything on the PS4, all the stuff just appeared in the game once I bought it from the PSN web store.

I suspect you probably can just buy the upgrade to save money if it's just linking up your purchase with the account, but I don't know for sure.
