Last year saw the release of the latest Elder Scrolls Online expansion, Blackwood. Here’s what Reggie had to say in his review:
Blackwood is a brilliant throwback to Oblivion, but it feels like a starting point for a grander tale. Players going into Blackwood expecting a full-fat expansion experience will feel slightly letdown. Its dedication to 2006s Cyrodill shines through with the spaced out content making the overall zone feel a little empty. Still, the content itself is a job well done, ticking all the boxes to keep players entertained, but new features like Blackwood’s companions work best when revisiting older zones.
Meanwhile, The Elder Scrolls Online received a free next-gen update for PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. This enabled an improved frame rate of 60 FPS, improved draw distance, and enhanced textures among other upgrades.
