Bethesda Game Studios has officially revealed the subtitle and logo for “The Elder Scrolls 6.”
The sixth edition was announced as “Sentinel” alongside a logo reveal in a video message from longtime franchise director
Todd Howard as part of Bethesda’s 40th anniversary Tuesday. The game will serve as the followup to “Skyrim,” the 2011 installation in the role-playing franchise.
Sentinel is a city within the Hammerfell province on Tamriel, the continent where “The Elder Scrolls” is set. Hammerfell is west of Cyrodiil, where the fourth installment “Oblivion” (2006) took place, and southwest of “Skyrim,” which is still the studio’s most played game.
“The Elder Scrolls 6” was first announced in 2018 during Bethesda’s E3 2018 conference and entered active production in 2023 after the launch of “Starfield.” Howard said in 2021 that he anticipated the game could be released 15-17 years after “Skyrim,” potentially putting fans still a few years away from playing “Sentinel.”
