The Gates of Oblivion are starting to slide open over at Elder Scrolls Online, and while players can’t yet dive into the new year of content, ZeniMax has a preview up for one of the two upcoming dungeons.
The Cauldron is a “cursed mine” that’s coming with the Flames of Ambition DLC. Players will team up with two NPCs, Drathas the Dark Elf and Dremora Lyranth, to investigate its depths and free some enslaved people.
It does sound like the adventure will be a rough ride: “We have thrown a couple wrinkles into this dungeon that players haven’t seen before. There are some new ways to accomplish goals that also incorporate levers that allow players to increase the challenge, hard mode aside. The final boss in particular, Baron Zaudrus, is a frantic fight that really emphasizes movement and forces you to have your head on a swivel.”
Rewards from the dungeon include three Oblivion-themed armor sets and Dagon’s Viscerent skin.
