This article provides a detailed breakdown of how to access these free offerings and the requirements associated with each.

Overview of Free In-Game Offers for ESO

ESO offers a variety of in-game rewards through both in-game events and external platforms. These rewards can include in-game currency, cosmetic items, experience boosts, and even full content packs or expansions. Some of the most notable free offers include:

  • Twitch Drops – In-game rewards available during live streams of ESO-related events.

  • Gaming Website Giveaways – Platforms like Xynode Gaming and MMOGah offer chances to earn in-game codes.
  • Special Event Rewards – Such as the Thieves Guild DLC and unique in-game pets or items.

Each of these opportunities requires different steps and conditions for claiming rewards, and many are time-sensitive or require specific actions.

ESO Twitch Drops and How to Claim Them

Twitch Drops are one of the most accessible methods for ESO players to earn in-game rewards. These drops are activated during live streams of major ESO events, such as the ESO Direct showcase. To claim these rewards, players must link their ESO account with their Twitch profile and watch the stream for a specific duration.

Steps to Claim ESO Twitch Drops

  1. Link ESO and Twitch Accounts
    Players need to connect their ESO account with their Twitch account. This is done through the Twitch website by authorizing the ESO integration. The process is outlined in detail on the official ESO website and various guides, including those from esports.gg.

  2. Watch the Live Stream
    During the ESO Direct stream, players must watch the stream for a specific amount of time. For example, watching for 15 minutes grants a 150% XP Scroll, while watching for 30 minutes of the Post Show grants a Skill Respecification Scroll.

  3. Redeem the Rewards
    After meeting the viewing requirements, the rewards will appear in the player’s Twitch Drops inventory. These can then be redeemed in-game through the ESO interface.

These drops are often released during major announcements and are a great way for players to receive valuable in-game items at no cost.

Free DLC and the 2025 Content Pass

One of the most significant free offers for ESO players is the ability to obtain a free 2025 Content Pass. This pass provides access to all major content updates scheduled for 2025, including story chapters, dungeons, and limited-time events. While the Content Pass is typically a paid offering, there are methods to obtain it for free through online promotions.

How to Get the 2025 Content Pass for Free

According to a guide from dimanachatw7ob on MMOGah, players can unlock a free 2025 Content Pass by following these steps:

  2. Search for ESO
    Use the search bar to find The Elder Scrolls Online. Once located, click on the game listing.

  4. Unlock the Code
    The code is initially locked and requires a few simple tasks to unlock it. These tasks typically involve:

    • Disabling any VPN or proxy.
    • Downloading and briefly using two selected apps.
  5. Redeem the Code
    After completing the tasks, return to the website and the code will be revealed. Players can then redeem this code in ESO to activate the 2025 Content Pass.

It is important to note that this method requires a smartphone (either iOS or Android) and the ability to download and briefly use the selected apps. The process is outlined in detail and has been verified by users who have successfully activated the Content Pass using this method.

Special Event Offers and the Thieves Guild DLC

Another notable free offer is related to the Thieves Guild DLC. This expansion adds a variety of in-game content, including new sets, a skill line, and unique items such as the Jackal pet. While the DLC is typically a paid expansion, there are ways to access some of its content for free through special events and promotions.

Free Thieves Guild DLC Rewards

During special events, such as mini-events or seasonal promotions, players can earn free rewards from the Thieves Guild DLC. These rewards include:

  • Maw of Lorkhaj Trial and the Dro-m'Athra skin

  • Thieves Guild skill line
  • Antiquity leads and dyes
  • Jackal pet (unlocked by traveling to Abah's Landing)
  • Coin of Illusory Riches Memento

Some of these items can be obtained for free during limited-time events or by completing specific in-game challenges. For example, the Jackal pet is unlocked simply by visiting a specific location in the game.

Additionally, there are daily and weekly Endeavors that offer rewards related to the Thieves Guild and Dark Brotherhood. These tasks are limited in number, so it is recommended to prioritize those with the highest rewards to maximize gains.

Gaming Website Giveaways and Free ESO Codes

Several gaming websites and platforms offer giveaways that include free ESO codes. One such platform is Xynode Gaming, which hosts a game called "Loot Finder." This is a treasure-hunt style game where players can earn real-world and in-game rewards by finding hidden chests in images.
