As a long-time gamer with a deep love for The Elder Scrolls series, I couldn’t help but feel a surge of excitement when I came across the rumors of The Elder Scrolls 6 (TES:VI) possibly taking place in Hammerfell. The recent discovery of a Bethesda employee’s concept board on Pinterest, showcasing various Hammerfell-inspired concepts, only fueled my anticipation further.


As an avid gamer, I’m thrilled to share some exciting news about the next adventure in The Elder Scrolls series. It seems that a sneak peek has been accidentally revealed, and the culprit might be none other than a Bethesda employee’s concept board on Pinterest! For those of us well-versed in Tamriel lore, we can identify the setting as Hammerfell. But for those of you with a penchant for spice and desert magic, get ready to explore Arrakis instead!

A Bethesda employee’s account, suspected of being involved in The Elder Scrolls 6 development, was discovered on the r/TESVI subreddit. However, the account was swiftly locked and removed. Fortunately, users had taken screenshots prior to its disappearance, providing glimpses into what could potentially be the future of Skyrim’s sequel – though it may still be years before its release.

I came across some intriguing image ideas presented above. Among them, the middle photograph holds a special place in my heart as it features an outfit from one of my favorite films – “The Mummy” starring Brendan Fraser. This movie is truly a timeless masterpiece for me. The outfit was donned by Oded Fehr who brilliantly portrayed Ardeth Bay in the film.

As a longtime fan of science fiction and high fantasy, I’ve read my fair share of epic tales that transported me to new worlds filled with unique cultures and creatures. However, I must confess that, despite my enthusiasm for both Dune and potential Hammerfell concepts in The Elder Scrolls: Sixth Edition (TES:VI), I find it challenging to recognize any striking similarities between the two.

As a gamer, I’m thrilled to experience Assassin’s Creed Mirage in the vibrant city of Baghdad. It’s about time fantasy RPGs explored different cultures beyond the Euro-centric feudalism we’ve seen so often. I’m not alone in expressing my relief that developers are broadening their horizons and offering something new.

Currently, the thought of going back to Tamriel and experimenting with early versions of The Elder Scrolls VI brings us the same feelings of happiness, anticipation, and adventure as before. With Bethesda recently announcing that the game is in a playable stage, it seems we might not have to wait much longer. Although there’s no definitive confirmation yet, rumors suggest Hammerfell as the potential setting for TES:VI. While this employee’s mood-board doesn’t provide concrete evidence, it certainly fuels our excitement.
