Ria Silmane, just prior to the start of the game, is apprentice to Jagar Tharn. After the pieces have been collected, the hero battles with Tharn in the Imperial city. The only way to bring him back is to find the eight pieces of the Staff of Chaos. The Emperor, Uriel Septim VII has been imprisoned in another dimension (in a copy of the Black Horse Courier in The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, this dimension is revealed to be Oblivion) and impersonated by Imperial Battlemage Jagar Tharn. Several hundred towns, dungeons and NPCs are available. The whole of Tamriel is available if travelling on foot (as in going into the wild) however due to the enormity of the game and the dangerous enemies that roam the wild, players will often be fast travelling (it is also required if the player wishes to cross a body of water). This makes playing as a mainly magic-using character quite difficult. Magic is used by cycling through a magic menu found by clicking the appropriate button on the main game screen, then clicking the spell to be used and its target. Combat is performed by using the mouse and dragging the cursor across the screen to attack if a melee weapon is used. The game is played from a first-person perspective.

In 2004, a downloadable version of the game was made available free of charge as part of the 10th anniversary of The Elder Scrolls series, but newer systems may require an emulator such as DOSBox to run it, as Arena is a DOS-based program. It is a first-person computer role-playing game for MS-DOS, developed by Bethesda Softworks and released in 1994. The Elder Scrolls: Arena is the first game in the Elder Scrolls series.
