Good news came from the developers of "The Elder Scrolls Online" following its announced Morrowind expansion. Fans are given a reason to celebrate more as developers revealed that PC and Mac players of the video game can have the opportunity to obtain early access to the downloadable content (DLC) offering. While computer-based gamers have an edge over the game's other console users as it is only available for them, the offer comes with prerequisites. 

Those who can gain early access are existing players on either Mac or PC who will purchase the digital upgrade of "The Elder Scrolls Online" Morrowind expansion or the collector's edition. They can access the DLC starting on May 22. This means that those who purchase the digital upgrade will enjoy a full two weeks' advantage of playtime compared to other console players as the upgrade will officially be released next month on June 6.

Moreover, it was clarified that those who gain early access to "The Elder Scrolls Online" Morrowind expansion will need not to worry. Buyers of "The Elder Scrolls Online: Morrowind" expansion or the collector's edition will be placed on live servers by Bethesda, as reported by GameSpot. Also, players will not be able to lose any of their game progress once it officially launches for everyone. What about those who failed to purchase the digital iterations of "The Elder Scrolls: Morrowind" upgrade or the collector's edition?

Developers are giving non-digital buyers one more chance to enjoy the early access by purchasing the physical copies of the collector's edition on PC or Mac. Buyers of the physical version of the collector's edition need to contact the game's support team for access, as announced on its website.

Before its official release, Bethesda informed that the early access was made possible to "allow for final gameplay tuning and polishing before the game launches." Thus, the early access provided to "The Elder Scrolls Online" PC and Mac players is not marketed as a beta.

"The Elder Scrolls" Morrowind expansion is officially set to launch on June 6, 2017 for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.
