The Elder Scrolls: Arena is a first-person computer role-playing game for the PC, developed by Bethesda Softworks and released in 1994. 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.

Like its sequels, it takes place in the huge world of Tamriel complete with wilderness and dungeons, a spell creation system that allows players to mix various spell effects into a new spell as long as they have the money to pay for it and numerous other game features that were ahead of its time.

The next game in the series was Daggerfall, released in 1996.
