Elsweyr Upgrade question

Avoranti · February 2020

Wanting to gift a friend a PSN Card to purchase the Elsweyr Upgrade. I know the pre-release came with Morrowind and Summerset. Does this upgrade still come with them? Friend only owns the base game (disc copy) that came with Wrothgar, Thieves Guild , Imperial City and Dark Brotherhood. The goal is to get them access to all chapters and story DLC. Friend would prefer purchasing rather than PS+. I know, I explained the benefits of PS+ but wasn’t able to convince the friend.

Also trying to get them set up for Murkmire event. Looking for the best bundle.

Elsweyr will include Morrowind and Summerset chapters indeed.

I don't know of any bundle currently that will also give them Murkmire. It sounds like their disc is the Gold Edition already so they are set there.

Thank you for the reply. However, the UESP suggest that purchasing the Elsweyr Upgrade does NOT come with Morrowind or Summerset. Since it’s an unofficial source I’m hoping that maybe I can get a confirmation here. Perhaps CM could chime in?

Also, yes, Gold addition, but, I do not know what you mean by “so they are fine there”. If you could explain that would be helpful. Thanks.

Buying the Elsweyr upgrade doesn’t include any zone other than Elsweyr. Buying the Elsweyr edition of the full game does include both Morrowind and Summerset.

So, the friend would have to delete the disc version, purchase the digital version of Elsweyr that includes the base game to get Summerset and Morrorwind. Murkmire and Dragonhold would also have to be purchased separately.

No. You would not have to delete the Disk Version. In fact, you would not want to delete the current install.

As explained above. The Elsewyer Upgrade only contains the New Content. The Elsewyer Edition contains the new content and any Chapters previously released, but not any of the DLCs like Thieves etc.

Anywhoo...

If you get your Friend the Elsewyer Edition of the Game, it will act like an upgrade of the Existing Install, giving him Elsewyer, and get him the Previous Chapters while letting him keep the DLC content he previously paid for.

In addition to the above, digital pre-purchases of the full Elsweyr Collector’s Edition and Standard Edition (not Upgrades) provides immediate access to ESO base game, Morrowind Chapter, and Summerset Chapter. The Collector’s Edition will also include the Collector’s Edition items for each Chapter, too. Note that these editions will continue to include Morrowind and Summerset post-launch, but the only way to get immediate access before launch is by digitally pre-purchasing them.

Another thing to consider is that if they buy Greymoor that includes Morrowind, Summerset and Elseweyr. (Same as Elseweyr, this is only if they buy the full version, not the upgrade.)

It's slightly more expensive than Elseweyr but if your goal is to make sure your friend has everything it's probably the better choice, because otherwise they'll end up needing to buy Greymoor seperately when it comes out.

If they get that the only things they'll be missing are the dungeon DLCs, Clockwork City, Murkmire and Dragonhold. I'm not aware of any bundle which includes those or a way to get them outside of the crown store.

(Just wanted to add bold to the NOT UPGRADES part for emphasis!)

Sorry for the late response. So we would want to purchase the Greymoor Digital Collectors Edition because it includes the previous chapters. Murkmire is currently on sale and I can get Dragonhold and CWC separately for her. But, the base game that comes this version of Greymoor is digital, wouldn’t that cause conflict with the disc version and DLC’s she already owns? That’s why I asked if she would have to delete the disc version before installing. Also, I can’t seem to find a price since pre-order for PS4 hasn’t been released yet.

Still looking for a few answers on purchasing the Greymoor Digital Collector’s Edition for PS4.

Would it affect her current character and gold edition DLC’s that came with the disc version? Would she have to start a new character? Would she have to repurchase any already owned DLC’s?
