Zenimax Online Studios has announced the next expansion of The Elder Scrolls Online: High Isle. It will transport players to the previously unexplored Sistres archipelago - a playground for the "elite" and a venue for diplomatic talks to end the "Three-Flag War". 

High Isle will be a small part of the next big annual adventure of The Elder Scrolls Online: The Legacy of the Bretons, which will be deeply immersed in the story of the descendants of Nedik and Aldmer, who live in High Rock. However, according to the map that appeared in The Elder Scrolls Adventures: Redguard, Sistres lies in the Abekian Sea, about the same distance from Hammerfell. in the northeast and Somerset Island in the southeast.

"The Bretons are the only race that has never been able to shine in the sun", Said Rich Lambert, creative director of Elder Scrolls Online. "They have never been the center of attention in any Elder Scrolls game. Even when we did their excerpts in Glenumbra and Stormhaven, we never focused on their culture. That's why we wanted to fix it. "

The Bretons may not be the most exotic race in Tamriel - Lambert described the High Isle setting as a "traditional medieval fantasy", but they are well suited for an upcoming adventure that will taste very different from most of the previous content.

"This year, with the stories we tell and the visuals we show, it's going to be a good change of pace."Said Lambert. "We've done a lot of 'space threat' stories where daedra princes come to destroy the world, and it's more grounded in reality and more focused on politics."
