The Elder Scrolls Online Is Down For Maintenance

The Elder Scrolls Online has been taken down for maintenance today, August 22nd. This is for a patch maintenance as well. The Elder Scrolls Online servers down will currently apply to players in North America and Europe only, who will experience this downtime taking effect today. This downtime will last for a few hours.

This Elder Scrolls Online patch maintenance will be due to the latest Elder Scrolls Online DLC, known as The Lost Depths. For those worried about the Elder Scrolls Online servers down, worry not as it just means you’ll be getting new content after the Elder Scrolls Online patch maintenance. If you’re wondering what the new content is, below are the patch notes:

Two New Dungeons

• Earthen Root Enclave: For centuries, the Earthen Root Enclave stood as a spiritual sanctuary for the druids of the Systres. Now, the Firesong circle has invaded this honored haven, and Druid Laurel of the Stonelore needs heroes to come to its defense. But why have they attacked? And what secrets does the enclave truly protect?
• Graven Deep: Tamriel’s sailors whisper warnings about Graven Deep, a strange region of the Abecean Sea where any ship that enters vanishes without a trace. Join former pirate Dhulef as he hunts for information on the legendary Druid King’s voyage to the Systres and seeks to uncover an ancient secret buried far beneath the waves.
• Earthen Root Enclave and Graven Deep are 4-player dungeons which can be reached via High Isle and Amenos respectively. Earthen Root Enclave’s entrance is in southwestern High Isle. The entrance is west of the Coral Road Wayshrine. Graven Deep’s entrance is located in southern Amenos, on the docks of Amenos Station.
