The Elder Scrolls VI will be set in Hammerfell, and it will come with mechanics like a political system and more.

On their Twitter profile, SKULLZI, who has proven to be reliable in the past when it comes to Bethesda rumors, shared a report coming from an anonymous but credible source about The Elder Scrolls VI and some other projects in the works at the publisher.

Speaking about The Elder Scrolls VI, the report says that the game will be set in Hammerfell and will have a political system. Betrayals, marriage, and factions will also play some role in the game, which is currently targeting a 2025, 2026 release date. Interestingly enough, the game will also not feature dragons.

The report also goes over other The Elder Scrolls projects. Apparently, series remasters, as well as Fallout series remasters are currently in the works by inXile Entertainment, as well as a potential 4X strategy game.

After SKULLZI shared their report, another reliable insider, Shpeshal Nick, confirmed that the report aligns almost perfectly with what he knows, with the exception of the lack of dragons in The Elder Scrolls VI.




While both SKULLZI and Shpeshal Nick have proven to be reliable in the past, we have to take all the new TESVI information with a grain of salt. The game is still in the early stages of development, so there's a good chance that things may change in the final version.

The Elder Scrolls VI will release on a yet to be confirmed release date. We will keep you updated on the game as soon as more come in on it, so stay tuned for all the latest news.

The Elder Scrolls VI Will Be Set In Hammerfell and Is Targeting a 2025, 2026 Release; Series Remasters Are in the Works

According to a new report, The Elder Scrolls VI will be set in Hammerfell, and it will feature a political system and more

Guys I'm a ery important insider leaker, my uncle is Tod Harvard the king of skyrim

I can tell you that the game will come out maybe 3 or 6 years from now and will have fantasy elements

Man graphical remasters of the Fallout and Elder Scrolls games actually makes me a little wet, not going to lie.
As for Elder Scrolls 6, in my head i'm just going to expect it to come in 2026, and if it actually does it will be a nice bonus.

 

[Beelzebubs]

I read that title as they're working on remasters already for ES6 launch so they can release the traditional 20 different versions of the game.

[Mister Wolf]

No rush. Microsoft has Avowed and Fable to fill the open world, sword & sorcery, action rpg genre in the meanwhile. I wouldn't be surprised if those two had better storytelling and gameplay.

 

[Badlucktroll]

I bet you have to join or start a niche redguard political party and you get exiled to the alik’r desert for a while.

I mean at this point nobody is credible in any thread so why even have these threads at all? It’s because people are excited about what they love.

If you know better, then why are you bothering unless it’s just to score points with snarky comments.

 

[Ass of Can Whooping]

If nick is corroborating it then it must be bullshit

 

[nightmare-slain]

2025 seems a bit optimistic. 2026 or 2027 is my guess.

 

[Beardsalt]

A political system?
No dragons?

I hope these 2 rumors are fake. The coolest thing in Skyrim was randomly seeing a dragon come into view, thinking it was gonna attack you, then ”bammmm”, out of nowhere, it grabs a woolly mammoth and drops it from space nearly killing your ass!

 

[Magic Carpet]

Jeese Airbus. just spoil everything in a thread title why don't cha.

 

[March Climber]

The Dream: They somehow manage to remaster ES 1 and 2. They remaster Morrowind with minor graphical upgrades, like how Final Fantasy 8 was remastered.

Possible reality: They remaster Morrowind with minor graphical upgrades, like how Final Fantasy 8 was remastered, and do a simple remaster for Oblivion.

Sad reality: They will do a simple remaster for Oblivion and somehow try to sell another remastered version of Skyrim.

 

[Elysion]

Does that mean there‘s gonna be another Skyrim remaster, lol?

Though I hope for Morrowind (if this rumor is true and past TES games get remastered) to be more than just a ‚remaster‘. The game would need a major overhaul in terms of gameplay (especially combat) and graphics to be re-released. They might as well recreate the whole game in the Starfield engine.

 

[levyjl1988]

I'm excited to return to Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, that game was amazing. To see it remastered with modern graphics and QoL changes would be amazing. I hope they put a lot of effort in the character creator with good nose, hair and face options.

 

[Spaceman292]

Answered your own question

 

[StealthGoblin]

Wonder if the remasters will come to PlayStation.

 

[MidGenRefresh]

I'm casually playing Oblivion right now. Not the best but potentially the most fun entry in the series. I would love to see a remaster of it.

 

[Saber]

Isn't Hammerfell a place full of deserts and have just a few fauna and florests? Didn't look that way in the teaser.

 

[DavJay]

Wonder if the remasters will come to PlayStation.

Same. It the games been on ps before I think it will. If not then maybe not.

 

[Stuart360]

Wonder if the remasters will come to PlayStation.

I actually think they probably would. As fantastic as remasters of these games will be, i doubt many casual gamers would buy one console over the other for said remasters. A new entry in either series sure, but not a remaster.

 

[sircaw]

Looking forward to playing it on my Xbox-one-Next.

 

[Sybrix]

Idiotic to announce this game as early as they did.

Even to announce it now in 2022 would be idiotic.

If this game is coming in 2024, announce it next year for Christ sake.

So sick of these games being announced 5+ years before release.

 

[Punished Miku]

I had my fingers crossed for Black Marsh or Elsweyr.

[Huevos de Oro]

I want a political system *with* dragons.

"Chancellor Paarthurnax, I vehemently object to your tax proposal!"

it is a hell of a long way of, hopefully, starfield and remasters will scratch that itch.

Because completely baseless rumors we have seen being posted here the last few months have become laughable. It's to the point where if anyone on the Internet claims to be an insider we spend 4 pages talking about whatever random nonsense they made up.

Not every rumours are wrong

That colin moriarty demon souls remake leak, nvidia leak, that girl ( forgot her name) wolverine game leak etc thats just from what i remember recently

If Colin Moriarty was saying this, that would be different. WHO is leaking something means everything.

When anyone can just pick up their phone and spill the beans, yeah - most things get leaked these days. But also impossible to tell what's real and what's crap. All you really have is a person's track record.

 

[stn]

Oh man, I won't be able to handle it if they remaster Morrowind.

 

[cash_longfellow]

Oh oh, I know! Remaster Skyrim

S______L for PS5 to be revealed soon (The dedicated bluebox/kojima 'conspiracy' thread)

Could it be?? MOD EDIT: Our response to the Hideo Kojima Rumors We received several emails regarding the Hideo Kojima rumor. We have no association with Hideo Kojima nor do we claim to have any association nor was it our intention to claim such a statement. We are a small group of developers...

16 times the waiting.

 

[amigastar]

I hope Skywind will be released soon to make the wait a little bit more sweet.

 

[mansoor1980]

[RoadHazard]

2026 lol. We'll be about ready for the PS6 and whatever they will call the next Xbox (if there even is one) by then.

 

[Sweden85]

Remasters for Gamepass as expected.. low effort big value

 

[Jennings]

That's fine. We gotta give the all the Skyrim babies time to grow old enough to play the sequel and enjoy it. They should be 15 or so when the sequel comes out.

Bethesda advise on when to conceive if you want your child to be a Skyrim competition entry

Vice President of Bethesda Softworks Pete Hines has issued a challenge to potential parents everywhere. If your child is born on the game's release date - 11/11/11 - and you name them Dovahkiin - the protagonist's title - you will receive... an unknown reward. He adds that Friday was the optimal...

Yes because remasters never existed before Gamepass did they.

 

[Classicrockfan]

I would love fallout new vegas to look like fallout 4 at least.

 

[Sweden85]

No, OFC not... xD

 

[BennyBlanco]

A morrowind remaster would be fucking ace. Let Vicarious Visions do it.

 

[Gaelyon]

I want a political system *with* dragons.

"Chancellor Paarthurnax, I vehemently object to your tax proposal!"

"Dracarys !"

 

[Fake]

And when the remaster will launch?

 

[MidGenRefresh]

In Todd we trust

 

[March Climber]

No Dragons, no snow. Let go of Skyrim guys. You'll get sand, curved swords, djinn, camels, and lizards.

 

[DukeNukem00]

Oh man, I won't be able to handle it if they remaster Morrowind.

A morrowind remaster would be fucking ace. Let Vicarious Visions do it.

Did they change their mind ?

A Skyrim remaster might be on the way but here's why Bethesda will never do Morrowind HD

Oh man, 2025 or 2026.... still so far off. Starfield will just have to be my Bethesda fix until then.
