If we exclude Morrowind, Cyrodiil, Skyrim and the Summerset Isles - all locations we've visited very recently, that feature different climates to this and, I think we can safely say, would make very surprising main locations for the Elder Scrolls 6 - then there are still a number of coastal cities that fit the bill. So, if we're looking for places on Tamriel maps that represent the trailer, we need somewhere in a dry, arid climate, where the ocean would be on our right if the city was dead ahead of us, and crucially no other land mass appears behind the city if we look in its direction. We can also clearly see a ruined, fort-like structure in the centre, near a crater-like drop to the left, and if you look closely, right in the distance on the coast, there is what looks like a city, set in a marshy, green area with some kind of watery passage or river just in front of it. We get an idea of the landscape - dry, rocky and mountainous with thinning, shrubby greenery throughout most of it - as well as a clear shot of the sea, to the right.

So, those assumptions in mind, here's our reasoning for believing The Elder Scrolls 6 is most likely to be set in Hammerfell:įirstly, the trailer shows us several things. Let's assume the maps of Tamriel that exist at the time of those other games, and the key locations depicted on them, are already in existence at whatever time this trailer and game is set.Īgain, for emphasis: it may be that none of those assumptions are true, or some of them are - but for the sake of argument, and for the fun of it, let's say they all are, so we can actually analyse what we've seen.

Temporally, it's set somewhere at least close to the dates of the events of Morrowind, Oblivion and Skyrim - if it's set way before or way after those events, then again we lose all power of deduction from what we see in the teaser (big, land-mass-changing stuff happens over the course of Nirn and Tamriel's history, after all, and Skyrim, for instance, was set 200 years after Oblivion).

It's not set outside of Tamriel - again, we discuss the possibility of this below and again, for us to really narrow it down we need to assume it's somewhere we already know a decent amount about.

For now, let's say the location of the trailer hints at the location of the game.

It's not set in all of Tamriel - it might be (and we'll discuss the possibility of that below), but if we want to even try to narrow it down, we have to at least start with assuming this trailer isn't just a generic mockup of "somewhere in the continent".

Let's assume, for the sake of narrowing it down, that the following is true (and that you've watched that teaser trailer, above): Here's why - and bear with us, because we're going way into speculation territory here.įirstly, let's make some assumptions. There's really not a lot to go on here but, if we had to, we'd plant our flag in Hammerfell as the location of The Elder Scrolls 6. Why we think Hammerfell is the location of The Elder Scrolls 6

Other potential Elder Scrolls 6 locations: could it be Elswheyr, Valenwood, Black Marsh or somewhere else in Nirn?.

Why the Elder Scolls 6 could be set in all of Tamriel.Why The Elder Scrolls 6 could be set in High Rock.Why we think Hammerfell is the location of The Elder Scrolls 6.There's also the 2020/21 New Year's Eve teaser tweet from the Elder Scrolls account to consider, although we reckon that's actually a tease for something else, sadly - but you can read what we made of it in (great) depth via that link. It's important to note, however, that Bethesda was acquired by Microsoft, announced on Monday 21st September 2020, and, currently, we don't know if this has had any affect on the development of Elder Scrolls 6.
