As of June 2024, The Elder Scrolls Online (ESO) does not require a subscription to play, but it offers an optional premium membership called ESO Plus with additional benefits. Heres a breakdown: Base Game & Expansions: No Subscription Needed: You can buy the base game and play indefinitely without a subscription. Buy-to-Play Model: Expansions (like High Isle, Necrom, etc.) and DLCs (smaller content packs) are purchased separately or accessed via ESO Plus. ESO Plus (Optional Subscription): Cost: 14.99/month (varies by region). Benefits: - Access to all DLCs (except the latest chapter/expansion). - Crowns (premium currency) each month (1,650/month). - Crafting Bag (unlimited storage for materials). - Double bank & housing space. - XP & gold boosts. Latest Chapter (Expansion): The most recent major expansion (e.g., Necrom) must be purchased separately, even with ESO Plus. However, previous chapters become accessible via ESO Plus when a new one releases. Free Content Updates: Regular free updates (like Q4 2024s Gold Road) add new features, but major zones/stories may require purchase. TL;DR: No mandatory subscription, but ESO Plus enhances the experience with convenience perks and DLC access. The base game alone offers hundreds of hours of content.

Venture into the depths of Azeroth itself in this groundbreaking expansion. Face new threats emerging from the planet's core, explore mysterious underground realms, and uncover secrets that will reshape your understanding of the Warcraft universe forever.
The War Within brings so much fresh content to WoW. The new zones are absolutely stunning and the storyline is engaging. Been playing for 15 years and this expansion reignited my passion for the game.
The new raid content is fantastic with challenging mechanics. However, there are still some bugs that need to be ironed out. Overall a solid expansion that keeps me coming back for more.
