The Elder Scrolls 6 finally has a name. Bethesda Game Studios confirmed on November 3, 2026 that the next main game in the series is called The Elder Scrolls VI: Sentinel. The logo appeared at the end of a video celebrating the studio’s 40th anniversary, in which executive producer Todd Howard took part.
What is confirmed
- Full title: The Elder Scrolls VI: Sentinel
- Developer: Bethesda Game Studios; publisher: Bethesda Softworks
- The teaser closes with an in-world text signed by a Moth Priest to the High Queen of Hammerfell, dated in the year 4E 206
- Bethesda said on social media that development continues and that it will be some time before it is ready to share more
What is still unknown
Bethesda has not announced platforms, a release date or a release window, and no gameplay was shown, only the logo. The sources read for this article do not include an official statement on the setting, although Sentinel is the name of a city in Hammerfell, a region already visited in Daggerfall, The Elder Scrolls Online and Redguard, and the teaser text points there.
The name matches what The Verge reported in late October, when it said Xbox planned to reveal the title as soon as November. The game was first announced in June 2018.
