Bethesda Celebrates 25 Years of ‘The Elder Scrolls’ With a Free Copy of ‘Morrowind’!
While the series didn’t really hit the mark until the second entry with Daggerfall, Bethesda’s Elder Scrolls series celebrates a quarter century this year. And to celebrate, for today only, you can own one of the most beloved entries in the series (that isn’t Skyrim).
If you head over to Bethesda’s website, you’ll see that you can grab a copy of Morrowind for absolutely nothing. The only catch is that you’ll have to sign up with Bethesda, click on the link to redeem your copy, and enter the code. Boom.
Celebrate #TES25 with a free copy of Morrowind on PC TODAY ONLY.

And seeing as it’s Morrowind, there are still some existing bugs with the game, some of which make it rather difficult to play on modern PCs. For that, you’ll have to head over to ModDB and download the fan fixes and enhancements.
In addition, Bethesda is having a Free Play event for Elder Scrolls Online, which will take place from March 28th until April 3. The Free Play Event includes access to the base game. You can head over to the Free Play access page now for more info.
All of us here at Bloody Disgusting are deeply sad to learn that The Blob director Chuck Russell has passed away at 74 years old.
Russell’s career began with his directorial debut, 1987’s A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors.
The multihyphenate film director, screenwriter, and producer is best known for helming 1994 comedy The Mask starring Jim Carrey, Arnold Schwarzenegger actioner Eraser, and adventure spinoff The Scorpion King. The latter served as the first leading role for Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson.
The filmmaker left an indelible mark on horror with his ANOES sequel, 1988’s The Blob, and 2000’s Bless the Child.
Russell’s final film credit is 2024’s Witchboard remake starring Madison Iseman (I Know What You Did Last Summer), Aaron Dominguez (Only Murders in the Building), and Jamie Campbell Bower (“Stranger Things”).
It marked Russell’s return to horror after a lengthy hiatus, and he shared sequel hopes to Bloody Disgusting in an interview ahead of the remake’s release: “I got to design the board with real mystical symbols and things that I know represent good and evil, and where that board takes us if the audiences respond to the film, and I hope they will; I know it’s out there for you guys, but the sequel is a world we’ll get to go a little further. That’s sure the intention.”
He also recently expressed interest in returning to the franchise that began his career.
TMZ notes that Russell passed away at his San Diego-area home.
We send our deepest condolences to Chuck Russell’s family, friends, and fans.
