It’s been over seven years since The Elder Scrolls VI was first announced, and details about the game remain scarce. Fans are understandably getting impatient for news, as the last major installment, Skyrim, came out in 2011. So far, all we’ve seen is a brief teaser. Despite the long wait, many still hope for a reveal soon, and Bethesda, led by Todd Howard, appears to be intentionally building anticipation.
Bethesda recently posted a short, mysterious 21-second video on their Italian X (formerly Twitter) account. Many believe it shows a glimpse of the next The Elder Scrolls game, often referred to as TES 6. Since large-scale playtesting for the game just finished, this video could be a way for the developers to give fans an early look.
After Bethesda released a new video, players immediately began speculating about its meaning. The video features a wide-open area with trees and the remains of a town, which some believe to be Kvatch, seen from the direction of Hammerfell. While Hammerfell – the homeland of the Redguards – has been a popular guess for the location of The Elder Scrolls VI, a closer look at the video has led many fans to doubt this theory.
A Reddit user noticed that the new Bethesda video shows the ruins of Fort Linchal, a location from the game Oblivion, and the mountains that border Valenwood. This has led to speculation that the next Elder Scrolls game might be set in a jungle environment inhabited by forest elves, instead of the desert region of Hammerfell.
Many players are hoping the next game will take place in Valenwood. Its fascinating culture, filled with unique races, and incredible environment – featuring cities built within living trees – would offer a refreshing change of pace. Some feel the game has focused too much on more traditional, human-centered areas like Hammerfell. However, until the developers officially announce their plans, all of this is just guesswork.
