Elder Scrolls Online is handing out 500 cash-shop currency to current players

If you’re an existing Elder Scrolls Online player who’s logged in between the start of 2017 and now, heads-up: ZeniMax is handing out a stack of free currency to you – 500 crowns, to be exact.

“To show our appreciation for an ESO community that keeps surprising us, we’re gifting all active ESO accounts 500 crowns!” says the studio. “500 crowns will be gifted to ALL qualifying ESO accounts on February 11 for PC/Mac and February 13 for Xbox One and PlayStation®4 To qualify for the free crowns, you must have logged in to the game between January 1, 2017 at 2:00AM EST, and February 7, 2019 at 2:00AM EST.” Why now? ZOS says it’s to celebrate all the awards ESO won at the end of 2018 – including best expansion for Summerset from everyone here at MOP. Huzzah.

The company has a lot of promos running right now, including a free trial event, the Morrowind Celebration event, and a Valentine’s Day-themed gift event that can net you a minipig for your generosity.
