Elder Scrolls 6 is the next chapter in the iconic series of adventure role-playing games, The Elder Scrolls. The project is currently in pre-production, and its development is being handled 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 cities such as Northpoint, Evermore, 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, and development will begin after the release of the space opera Starfield (after 2020) for next-generation consoles and PC.
The action of the sixth main installment of the Elder Scrolls series takes place in the world of Nirn — a fictional planet in the Elder Scrolls universe, also known as the "mortal plane." There is no information about the specific region yet.
It is most likely that Bethesda will continue the story of Tamriel, the largest continent on the planet. This is logical, considering the many races, classes, guilds, spheres of activity, and political entities, which provide rich material for creating and unfolding any conflict.
In that 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 own the central provinces and the citadel of Orsinium. The province also features Nords from northern Skyrim and Reachmen — witch-warlocks of High Rock. Imperials from Cyrodiil might send an expeditionary force to reclaim the province.
There are also two other options. The first is Hammerfell, a neighboring province to High Rock (or both together). This version is supported by the world design shown in the trailer. The second option is that the events of TES 6 will take place on a continent neighboring Tamriel — Akavir. In that case, Bethesda has complete freedom to introduce new races, locations, events, and significantly expand the game universe.
The plot details of The Elder Scrolls 6 are currently unknown. According to Todd Howard , the lead game designer at Bethesda, the game will have a plot. Considering that the series progresses along an in-game timeline, it can be expected that the events of TES 6 will begin several centuries after the events of The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim.
An important role in the series is played by "elder scrolls," which predict the future. For instance, the events of The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion were foretold in the "prophecy of the Gray Cowl of Nocturnal," and the events of Skyrim — 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.
Characters, Races, and Classes
The character in The Elder Scrolls 6 will be another prisoner, sentenced to death and finding themselves in the right place at the right time. Заполучив свободу и важный квест по спасению мира, он, в случае, если действие развивается в Хай Роке, будет вынужден сбалансировать интересы бретонских Королевств, Орков, Империи и Альдмерского доминиона. Или принять какую-то одну сторону.
Очевидно, что сохранится выбор между расами Тамриэля и классами персонажа — от людей и эльфов до каджитов и аргониан, от магов и охотников до солдат и воров.
Подробности одиночного режима The Elder Scrolls 6 пока неизвестны. По словам Тодда Говарда (Todd Howard), игра будет одиночной.
Многопользовательская игра
Сразу можно сказать, что мультиплеера у The Elder Scrolls 6 не будет, ведь ZeniMax развивает ММО The Elder Scrolls Online. Она пользуется заслуженным успехом у игроков за счет большого количества PvE- и PvP-контента, многочисленных рас, полноценной прокачки и множества регионов Тамриэля.
- заявлено, что TES 6 разрабатывается на новом движке и подарит игрокам высококлассную графику с новой системой анимации, консоли текущего поколения её могут не потянуть.
