Cheese, Chaos and a Mortal Prince: Sheogorath Leaves the Isles
Gaming2 views2026-07-31
The Elder Scrolls Online has launched Sheogorath Takes a Holiday, a new six-part story questline available free to all ESO players across every supported platform.
The adventure follows Noth the Unhinged and her unpredictable master, Sheogorath, as the Daedric Prince of Madness temporarily leaves the Shivering Isles to experience life as a mortal.
What begins as an unusual tour of Tamriel quickly turns into a continent-wide search for rare cheeses. Players will visit different locations, attend unusual celebrations and help Sheogorath sample some of the finest food Tamriel has to offer.
The holiday becomes increasingly dangerous when dark forces discover that Sheogorath is temporarily vulnerable. Players must protect the Prince of Madness while uncovering the group attempting to use his weakened condition against him.
The opening quest can be claimed free through the in-game Crown Store. Players can also begin the storyline by finding Noth the Unhinged at Baandari Trading Post in Malabal Tor, Windhelm in Eastmarch or Sentinel in the Alik’r Desert.
A limited-time Golden Pursuits campaign accompanies the new storyline from July 29 through August 12, 2026. Completing related quests and activities unlocks additional rewards, including gold, cosmetic items and a special customized action inspired by Sheogorath.
By combining comedy, Daedric danger and a surprisingly serious threat to Tamriel, Sheogorath Takes a Holiday offers ESO players a very different kind of seasonal adventure.
