The developers of MMORPG The Elder Scrolls Online have taken to the official site with the preview of the features arriving with the free Update 37 base-game patch. It will be going live in tandem with the Scribes of Fate DLC pack on March 13 for PC & Mac and March 28 for Xbox and PlayStation consoles.
Patch 37 introduces Screen Narration, the last in ESO’s accessibility-focused improvements. This feature will allow you to have the majority of the game’s menus (with some exceptions) narrated to you as you navigate. It becomes available to anyone who enables Accessibility Mode in the game’s settings menu (navigate to Settings, then Accessibility), and it allows you to choose between a masculine or feminine voice and set both the speed and volume of the narration. The narration is computer generated in the language you choose to play in (English, French, German, Spanish, Japanese, or Simplified Chinese).
A cosmetic update comes in Patch 37 as well: a way to hide whatever shoulder gear your character is currently wearing. ike Hide Helm, this option can be enabled when customizing your look in the Outfit Station. Simply navigate to Armor Styles, select Shoulders, and then select the Hide Shoulders “style.” But first you must acquire the Hide Shoulders cosmetic by pending Event Tickets at the Impresario during any of ESO’s upcoming in-game events.
There are also some new quality-of-life improvements for the Housing System. This includes a set of new filters for the Housing Editor’s placement and retrieval tabs, allowing you to place items specifically from your bank, inventory, house storage, or collectibles, items that are bound or unbound, and items by the furnishing limit type they fall under.
