@gamesdotgg: Xbox CEO Asha Sharma teased The Elder Scrolls 6 subtitle on X, writing 8 asterisks rather than the actual name. The internet did what the internet does and immediately started theorising. “Dominion”, “Covenant”, “Orsinium”, “Starfall”, and even “Skyrim 2” were all floated, but the one that has taken hold is “Sentinel” which is the capital city of Hammerfell. This region is one that fans have believed to be the game's setting since Bethesda teased a single landscape image back at the 2018 announcement. Then things got interesting. Players going back through old Starfield screenshots noticed that the 16-digit employee number shown in the character creator. It actually spells out Sentinel when each pair of digits is mapped to a letter of the alphabet. Former Elder Scrolls writer Michael Kirkbride was then asked on Reddit whether Sentinel was the name, and simply replied: "yep." Bethesda has not confirmed anything, but it is quite a lot of coincidences to dismiss. #elderscrolls #skyrim #theelderscrolls #bethesda #gamingnews

Elsweyr would be much more interesting. That 2018 teaser just confirmed to me hammerfell would be such a lazy ass region for Bethesda cause they are just gonna treat it as a snowless Skyrim. A desert with mountains. Elsweyr has deserts, savannas, jungles and tropical landscapes. Inhabited by a race we have barely explored compared to the other races of Nirn. And before anyone tries saying something, I’ve wanted Elsweyr before Skyrim was announced. But we’ll never get it at this rate

It fits but it doesn’t really make sense. Thats like if Skyrim was called The Elder Scrolls V: Windhelm

I’m actually mad at Bethesda. I’m not even sure I’m ready to forgive them and play the next Elder Scrolls. I was a freshman in college when Skyrim came out. I didn’t think we’d go 15+ years with no sequel.

I want it to be Dominion. It’ll be far more cool to be set in the aldmeri dominion

ImTiredOfTheStupid"people" :
I think it might be elder scrolls 6 dominion, as they are a rising threat in tamriel and hammerfell split with the empire due to the signing of the White Gold Concordat.
