If you buy Morrowind, can you access the core game immediately?

A friend of mine who does not currently have an ESO account is interested in starting the game. I know people who purchase Morrowind get access to the rest of the game as well, but is that access immediate, or does it not start until Morrowind is released? In other words, if she wants Morrowind but also wants to start playing right away, does she need to purchase the standard or gold edition and then purchase the upgrade, or can she just purchase the full digital edition of Morrowind and get access to the rest of the game immediately, and Morrowind upon release?

    I'm sorry, but the answer is no. Your friend should purchase the Standard or Gold Edition and she can pre-order the upgrade if she wants to be able to play ESO immediately.

    I thought that was probably the case, but I wasn't certain. Thanks for confirming. :)

    Thank you! I had the very same problem/question, and found this answer! Maybe you should add it to the FAQ...
    Too bad, it would have been a nice Birthday gift for my friend...
