Bethesda Game Studios has confirmed that its next Elder Scrolls game is called The Elder Scrolls VI: Sentinel. Todd Howard introduced the name during a video marking the studio’s 40th anniversary on November 3, more than eight years after the project’s first public teaser.
The reveal is brief. It introduces the Sentinel logo and shows a sword, then closes with a passage addressed to High Queen Iradne of Hammerfell. The text gives fans a specific piece of lore to examine. Bethesda has yet to outline the geography or story of the playable game.
Bethesda first teased the sixth mainline entry at E3 in 2018. That trailer showed a sweep of mountainous coastline and the series title. The anniversary video now gives the project a subtitle Bethesda can use in future updates.
The company says it will be some time before it shares more. The anniversary reveal leaves the release date, platform lineup and gameplay details open.
