What is the Necrom Chapter Release Date?

From what we have learned from the ESO Necrom Chapter Global Reveal, the new Chapter is planned to release later this year, on June! To be more precise Necrom will release on June 5th 2023 for PC/Mac and June 20th for Consoles!

While the Necrom Chapter is a standalone experience it will still be tied to the other stories told during the year, as part of the Shadow over Morrowind saga! This saga and the year for ESO begins with the Q1 Dungeon DLC, Scribes of Fate! Scribes of Fate will feature two 4-man PVE Dungeons, Scrivener’s Hall and Bal Sunnar. Both dungeons will offer a normal and veteran difficulty, as well as plenty of loot for players to farm! The Scribes of Fate DLC will release on March 13th 2023 for PC/Mac and March 28th 2023 for Consoles.

Arcanist Class – ESO Necrom Reveal

The Arcanist is a brand new Class for ESO and the seventh Class players can pick and play with once the Chapter becomes available! Although similar in concept to the other six playable Classes, the Arcanist introduces a twist to its gameplay and expands the Lovecraftian vibes of the Necrom Chapter! The Arcanist will feature three skill lines with each one focusing on a single aspect of gameplay, offense, defense and support!

Arcanist Gameplay

The Arcanist channels the power of Apocrypha to create ancient runes of power to destroy its enemies or help its allies! Unique powers that allow you to use gates to teleport around the area or even summon tentacles from your hands! With the Arcanist Class, ESO also introduces for the first time a combo point system! With this system certain abilities will build up points that you can use with other abilities to enhance their damage and effects!

Are there New Companions in Necrom Chapter?

The Necrom Chapter will introduce two New Companions to the game! An Argonian male Warden and a Redguard male Arcanist will join the group of the other four existing ESO Companions and will help you in combat!
