The Elder Scrolls Online is currently adding the upcoming Waking Flame DLC to its Public Test Server (PTS). ZeniMax brought the PTS down for maintenance earlier today, but when it goes back up you'll find two new dungeons – along with a bunch of other new content – ready to be explored.
All PC/Mac characters on North American servers will be available on the PTS, but you can also use a max-level template to test out some of the high-end content. The most exciting reason to check out the update is for the Waking Flame DLC dungeons. This includes Red Petal Bastion and The Dread Cellar, which can be reached via Glenumbra and Blackwood.

The Waking Flame DLC is yet to get a release date, but is expected to arrive in Q3 of this year. Until then, this is your best chance to check out the coming DLC. As the first big update following the Blackwood Chapter, The Waking Flame is hoping to give the ESO community another reason to dive back into the MMO.
In other ESO news, Midyear Mayhem recently came to an end in ESO, which offered an XP boost for taking part in PvP combat. Last month also saw a small update that improved overall performance and fixed a few lingering issues from the Blackwood update.
The Waking Flame DLC is now available on the ESO Public Test Server.
