The Adventurers Guild of Giving (AGoG) is absolutely ecstatic to announce that Paradox Customs has officially joined our party as the sponsor for the ESO Freeplay Station at GCX 2026!
When we set out to build Side Quest: GCX 2026 – The Elder Scrolls Experience, we knew our interplanar Night Market needed the most powerful arcane machinery available to handle the journey. Paradox Customs has stepped up to the contract, graciously equipping our digital freeplay zone with a fleet of their premium, s.tate-of-the-art gaming rigs for the ultimate weekend campaign.
Experience Tamriel Like Never Before
Thanks to the incredible team at Paradox, attendees stepping into our booth will be able to sit down at elite battle stations to experience the latest Elder Scrolls Online content. Whether you are a veteran hero defending Tamriel or a fresh wanderer stepping through your very first portal, these high-end setups will ensure your adventures in ESO are experienced with breathtaking, maximum graphics and flawlessly smooth, high-tier performance.
Meet the Master Builders On-Site
If you’ve ever dreamed of upgrading your personal real-life inventory with a PC that looks like a work of art and runs like a dream, this weekend is your perfect opportunity. Representatives from Paradox Customs will be live at our booth all weekend long!
While you are hanging out at the station or waiting to challenge the Thieves Den and Alchemy tables, you’ll be able to check out these beautiful custom rigs up close and speak directly with their team. They will be on-site to answer all your hardware questions, discuss cutting-edge specs, and help you learn more about how to design or optimize the ultimate battle station of your own.
Prepare Your Quest Log
The Night Market portal opens from July 24–26 on the GCX convention floor. Come pull up a chair at the Paradox Customs ESO Freeplay Station, link up with fellow players, meet official representatives from ZeniMax Online Studios, and turn digital connections into lifelong real-world friendships.
A massive thank you to Paradox Customs for equipping our Guild this year! We’ll see you at the booth—let’s keep the quest going!

When it manifests, it draws in wanderers from across Tamriel and Oblivion alike. It is a place of flickering lanterns and shifting shadows where three powerful factions vie for control, offering rare arcane treasures and secrets to those who can earn their favor. Whether you are seeking power, profit, or a way to navigate the dangerous districts of this otherworldly hub, the Night Market is where the most ambitious adventurers come to test their mettle.
