The Elder Scrolls 6was announced back atE3 2018 with a brief teaser trailerthat did little more than confirm its existence. Since then, fans have been hungry for more information, but Bethesda has kept relatively tight-lipped on the project. However, a new rumor making the rounds online claims to leak a lot of information aboutThe Elder Scrolls 6, though fans should take it all with a massive grain of salt.
The leak comes from Reddit user ToddIsMyMom, who made the claims in a large post about bothThe Elder Scrolls 6andStarfield. In the post, ToddIsMyMom says thatThe Elder Scrolls 6takes place in Hammerfell, High Rock, and Yokuda, with the landmass seen in the teaser trailer being the latter. The leaker reiterates a previous leak that claimed thatThe Elder Scrolls 6subtitle is Redfall, and says that the main quest will revolve around Direnni Tower.

The leaker then goes into more details aboutThe Elder Scrolls 6, denying rumors that the game will utilize procedural generation and comparing the crafting system toFallout 4. They then add thatThe Elder Scrolls 6release datewill be some time in 2025, though if the game was that far off, it seems unlikely that this leaker would have so many details about it this early in development. Needless to say, this casts a lot of doubt on the veracity of these claims, and so fans should keep their expectations in check.
The Elder Scrolls 6full productionis believed to have started just recently, as Bethesda went on a hiring spree of sorts, leading to speculation that the company was now devoting more resources on the project. However, we know thatStarfieldwill release beforeThe Elder Scrolls 6, so it will likely still be quite some time before fans get any new information about the long-awaited game.
While fans wait for official details from Bethesda, it’s quite likely that there will be many more rumors and supposed “leaks” that come out aboutThe Elder Scrolls 6. The simple fact that fans know the game is in the works breeds this kind of thing, and things will only intensify as the years go by. Maybe Bethesda will look to address some of these rumors by revealing some new details aboutThe Elder Scrolls 6at itsE3 2020 press conference, but fans shouldn’t hold their breath.
A much more likely scenario is that Bethesda will reveal E3 2020, but even that isn’t certain. Fans will just have to stay tuned to find out.
