The Elder Scrolls 6

Elder Scrolls 6 — the next chapter in the iconic series of adventure role-playing games The Elder Scrolls. The project is currently in pre-production, developed by Bethesda Game Studios, the acclaimed developers who previously released TES 5: Skyrim and Fallout 4. The events of the new game may take place in the northwestern province of Tamriel — High Rock, where you can enjoy picturesque mountainous locations and visit the cities of Northpoint, Evermoor, Orsinium, Daggerfall, and many others.

The Elder Scrolls 6 is a single-player role-playing game with action elements in a large, open world. It is currently in the pre-production stage by Bethesda, with development set to begin after the release of the space opera Starfield (later in 2020) for next-generation consoles and PC.

The sixth installment of the Elder Scrolls series takes place in the world of Nirn — a fictional planet in the Elder Scrolls game universe, also known as the "mortal plane." There is currently no information about a specific region.

Most likely, Bethesda will continue to tell the story of Tamriel, the largest continent of the planet. This makes sense given the multitude of races, classes, guilds, professions, and political entities, which provide a rich ground for creating and revealing any conflict.

In this case, it is most likely that the action will take place in High Rock — a hilly and rocky northwestern region of Tamriel.

Its indigenous population consists of Bretons, a human race with elven blood, as well as Orcs, who inhabit the central provinces and the citadel of Orsinium. The province is also home to Nords from northern Skyrim and Reachmen — witchcraft sorcerers of High Rock. Imperials from Cyrodiil may send an expeditionary force to regain control of the province.

There are also two other possibilities. The first is Hammerfell, a neighboring province to High Rock (or they may both be included). This version is supported by the design of the game world shown in the trailer. The second option is that the events of TES 6 will unfold on the continent neighboring Tamriel — Akavir. In this case, Bethesda would have complete freedom to introduce new races, locations, events, and significantly expand the game universe.

Details about the plot of The Elder Scrolls 6 are still unknown. According to Todd Howard , the lead game designer of Bethesda, the game will have a plot. Considering that the series is moving forward in the in-game chronology, it can be expected that the events of TES 6 will begin several centuries after the events of The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim.

The "ancient scrolls," which predict the future, play an important role in the series. So, the events of The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion were foretold in the "prophecy of the Gray Cowl of Nocturnal," and the events of Skyrim were in the "prophecy of the Dragonborn." A scroll predicting the events of The Elder Scrolls 6 has not yet been found, but it may appear as an Easter egg in The Elder Scrolls Online or The Elder Scrolls: Blades.

The character in The Elder Scrolls 6 will be yet another prisoner sentenced to death, who finds himself in the right place at the right time. Gaining freedom and an important quest to save the world, he will have to balance the interests of the Breton Kingdoms, Orcs, Empire, and Aldmeri Dominion, if the action takes place in High Rock. Or choose one side.

It is clear that the choice between the races of Tamriel and character classes will remain — from humans and elves to khajiit and argonians, from mages and hunters to soldiers and thieves.

Details about the single-player mode of The Elder Scrolls 6 are still unknown. According to Todd Howard, the game will be single-player.

It can be said right away that there will be no multiplayer in The Elder Scrolls 6, as ZeniMax is developing the MMO The Elder Scrolls Online. It enjoys well-deserved success among players due to its large amount of PvE and PvP content, numerous races, full character progression, and many regions of Tamriel.
