Where Will The Elder Scrolls 6 Take Place?
As fans continue to wait for Elder Scrolls 6, which Bethesda announced in 2018, a new clue has emerged about where the game will take place. A social media post by Emil Pagliarulo, one of the studio’s experienced designers, has reignited speculation that the game will take place in Hammerfell. The image in the post brings to mind Hammerfell’s famous Alik’r Desert. Elder Scrolls fans on Reddit interpreted this image as a “soft confirmation.”
Elder Scrolls 6 Details That Strengthen Hammerfell Claims
The claims that Elder Scrolls 6 will take place in Hammerfell are supported by previous leaks and theories. Hammerfell is a region located in the west of the Tamriel continent and is known for its desert landscapes. The Alik’r Desert and the Redguard culture in the region have an important place in the Elder Scrolls universe. The title and image used by Emil Pagliarulo in his post were perceived by fans as a reference to Hammerfell. However, it is also stated that the post is a response to another image featuring Bethesda Games Studios director Todd Howard in a similar outfit.
Although this does not confirm the possibility that Elder Scrolls 6 will take place in Hammerfell, it does strengthen theories that the game will take place in this region. It is thought that Bethesda is giving such small clues to reward the eight-year patience of fans.
Elder Scrolls 6 has been one of the most anticipated games since its announcement in 2018. However, Bethesda has shared very little information about the game. While a second trailer has not yet been released for the game, fans’ expectations are increasing day by day. The Hammerfell theory stands out as a new development that adds excitement to this long wait.
Although Bethesda is busy with big projects like Starfield, it is known that work on Elder Scrolls 6 continues. If the game takes place in Hammerfell, fans will be more familiar with the desert landscapes and Redguard culture of Tamriel. Until an official statement is made by Bethesda, theories will continue to be discussed among fans.
