gamingNov 3, 202643523

The Elder Scrolls VI officially received its subtitle Sentinel when Bethesda revealed the name at the end of its 40th anniversary video and dropped a short teaser. The teaser and a Moth Priest quote dated 4E 206 have many people treating Hammerfell as the confirmed setting, and longtime players are pointing to a conspicuous blank on the Hammerfell region in The Elder Scrolls Online map as fuel for that reading. Response in the community is split between giddy, sometimes sarcastic celebration, memes imagining the game releasing in 2060, and weary skepticism about how long development will take and whether current Xbox management will handle the project well. A detailed lore primer from the Imperial Library circulated as a primer for anyone brushing up on Hammerfell ahead of the long wait.
