It seems like The Elder Scrolls Online is trying to pull in more of its players to pay for subscriptions since the summer time is usually the prime time for gaming. Everyone’s off from school and trying to avoid the hot weather, so why not play video games inside with nice, cool air conditioning without having to worry about doing homework?
Players can purchase ESO Plus memberships on The Elder Scrolls Online official website. Xbox One players can get a month of ESO Plus for $14.99; PlayStation 4 players can get a month of ESO Plus for $14.99, three months for $13.99, and six months for $12.99; and PC players can get 30 days for $14.99, 90 days for $13.99, and 180 days for $12.99.
