There has never been a more opportune moment to immerse yourself in Bethesda’s iconic Elder Scrolls series. If you appreciate sprawling, high-fantasy settings defined by both their gravitas and immense scale, you are in luck. Steam is currently hosting a massive franchise sale, featuring deep discounts on some of the most celebrated titles in gaming history.
This annual event, curated by Bethesda, is a staple for RPG enthusiasts, with 2026 prices slashed by as much as 75% on select entries.
While modern gaming icons like Skyrim and Oblivion dominate the conversation, the series traces its roots back to 1994’s The Elder Scrolls: Arena. Drawing heavy inspiration from tabletop role-playing games, the debut title tasked players with leading a party across a vast map, conquering dungeons, and proving their worth in arenas. Those humble beginnings blossomed into one of fantasy’s most influential pillars—a saga that combines classic tropes like elves and dragons with complex political intrigue, visceral warfare, and a tapestry of lore so dense it continues to captivate players decades later.
Whether you are a newcomer to the series or a veteran looking to revisit the classics, this sale offers something for everyone. If you aren’t sure where to begin, the complete Elder Scrolls franchise bundle—which nets you six essential games for just $65—is an exceptional value. The full collection includes:
- The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind (GOTY Edition) – $5.99 (60% off)
- The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered – $39.99 (20% off)
- The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Anniversary Edition – $16.49 (67% off)
- The Elder Scrolls Adventures: Redguard – $2.39 (60% off)
- An Elder Scrolls Legend: Battlespire – $2.39 (60% off)
- The Elder Scrolls Online – $4.99 (75% off)
For those interested in exploring the more experimental side of the series, Redguard and Battlespire offer unique, focused experiences, while The Elder Scrolls Online remains the gold standard for those who prefer to brave the wilds of Tamriel alongside friends. Furthermore, individual game soundtracks are marked down by 50%. As a bonus, the franchise’s foundational titles, The Elder Scrolls: Arena and The Elder Scrolls 2: Daggerfall, remain completely free to play.
Keep in mind that these deals won’t stay live indefinitely; you have until June 4 to complete your collection and venture into the world of The Elder Scrolls.
