The Elder Scrolls Online Will Let You Buy Loot Box Items Without Real Money Soon Crown Crate items are going to be available via a new currency. The Elder Scrolls Online is making a big change that could hint at how Bethesda approaches microtransactions in its games now that it's a Microsoft subsidiary. Items available in loot boxes will soon also be available without having to spend any real money. ZeniMax Online Studios made this known in a new update post (via Eurogamer) that previews content coming in a mid-June update, so you will have to wait a little longer before trying it out. A system called Endeavors will allow you to complete daily and weekly quests to earn rewards, including Seals of Endeavor that can be spent on any Crown Crate items currently in the game.
