Morrowind, Daggerfall, Redguard, Battlespire, Arena.

The ultimate freeform adventures are here, epic tales of knights, thieves, dragons and magic. Enormous open worlds and a blank slate to make your own story. <span class="bold">The Elder Scrolls</span> are among the most recognizable RPGs in the history of ever, and each entry shaped the genre in its own unique way.




Today, we're traveling back to ye olden days in two digital distribution premieres and an all-time-favorite that we just couldn't pass by. You can pick up all three titles in a <span class="bold">single bundle at 33% off!</span>:
--The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind - Game of the Year Edition.
--The Elder Scrolls Adventures: Redguard - digital distribution premiere.
--The Elder Scrolls: Battlespire - digital distribution premiere.
--The Elder Scrolls: Arena - free with any Bethesda purchase.
--The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall - free with any Bethesda purchase, too.




We're welcoming Bethesda Softworks to GOG.com with more bundles and tons of new classic releases - all DRM-free of course - and don't forget that that the two final The Elder Scrolls classics (The Elder Scrolls: Arena and The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall) will magic into your library completely FREE with any Bethesda purchase. The bundle promos end on Wednesday, September 2, 12:59 PM GMT.




Stream watch:
Dragons, magic and fantasy are coming to Twitch.tv/GOGcom in celebration of these many Bethesda releases! Tune in tonight for many awesome Elder Scrolls streams - just check out the calendar below:

Any word on separate releases for Arena and Daggerfall, outside of this bundle? I'd love to have a copy of Daggerfall via GOG, to keep games together. The games are already free straight from Bethesda anyway...

Grargar: Can I get an answer to this question of mine?
I bought them as gifts (gifted myself morrowind) and as the buyer I got arena and daggerfall for free. they didn't show up until I redeemed morrowind. maybe the site was slow in loading or is this how it works?

do people who get the other games also get arena and daggerfall free???

Arrille sells them. Grab some loots, do some quests, steal shit, you'll have enough.

Yes, they do. Buy one of the Bethesda games and you'll also get Arena and Daggerfall as well. Thanks for the info.

Did not know he existed in Seyda Neen. Could have helped me find missing pieces of steel armor in my playthorugh as a Warrior-ish Nord.

Really? Dude's like the second guy you meet. He's basically Shops and Spells: The Tutorial.

Where did you sell all that silverware nicked from the Census Office then? :p

mistermumbles: I'm mulling over whether to get Morrowind on its own or all three. Hmmm.

JLH: I had the same issue. spend an extra 1 and change for games I know I wont play or what? so I just bought all three as a gift and redeemed only morrowind. now I have two games to gift. :)
Well, I just read up some more on both of these offshoots and they sound fairly unremarkable. An older PC Gamer crapshoot mentioned that Battlespire is particularly tough and merciless in killing the player, which was also mentioned in two of the user reviews - yeah, no thanks; I prefer to keep some of my hair and sanity - and Redguard seems to not run all that well, then and now. While I could argue that it's "only a buck and 38 cents more!", it'd also be wasted since I'm unlikely to bother playing either one. It's nice that GOG dredged them up from obscurity, but ultimately neither one sounds all that fun to play to me. *shrug*

Yeah, I'll be better off just playing the two freebies that come with the purchase. ;)

It is, oh it is. See the warning notice in one of the screenshots.
On the other hand, it's short. A few levels, each taking an hour or two to complete. You can ignore monsters, and you may be able to convince them not to attack you. But you should take care, as usual for games of that time period.

When I`m in my library and choose the store page of Daggerfall it takes me to the store page of Doom Ii. WTF?

As I already own Morrowind including the expansions on optical disk, I will wait for a a better sale.
I did buy the Quake + Doom I(I) bundle to welcome Bethseda to GOG.
It would be even better if this coincides with the first stable release of OpenMW,
Please make some Mac and Linux wrappers, now will you?

Bethesda: if you will help along OpenMW you can hit at least four birds with one stone:
(provided you are proficient enough in the throwing skill of course ;-) ):
1- Be able to release a MacOSX and Linux version in record time, since OpenMW can only be played using the files that get installed with a legal Morrowind install. OpenMW is almost ready for prime time.
2- Release your contributions to OpenMW as Open Source, thereby gaining some goodwill in the Open Source community and instantly get a lot of playtesters for those releases.
3- By working together with the OpenMW team, you will ensure compatibility with mods, making your games even more desirable.
4- Cross-platform release of a future true HD version will become much easier.

Please consider this...

anyone interested in a free battlespire and redguard? sadly they're on the same gift code so i don't know how to split them up.

gotta have more rep than me or have been a member longer than me. sorry.

OR link to another thread where you gifted a game to the community sometime in 2015 then you're in as well.

first reply to meet the criteria above gets them.

EDIT:
created a thread for this and they are already gone! congrats thepunishedsnake and grargar!
