It’s basically a gaping hole in the universe that lets in the light emanating from Aetherius after this guy/god Magnus decided last minute to bail during the creation of the mortal realm of Mundus. If you want to get technical with Elder Scrolls lore, the sun isn’t actually a celestial body of any kind. Maybe The Game Theorists over on YouTube can do some calculations with the non-Earth physics of a fictional sun and planet or the many inconsistencies between in-game maps, but I am certainly not going to be focusing on whether or not I think Nirn has a tilted axis like Earth that will mess with the angle of sunlight we see in the teaser to find out where in Tamriel we might be looking at. It would be great to have this information to find matching locations in Tamriel, but I really don’t see either of these factors providing accurate information. Personally, I’m not going to factor in the sun’s angle to figure out which direction the camera faces nor am I going to look at the shape of the coastline in the teaser to find similarly shaped pieces of coastlines on other maps. But because we’ve never seen a game set on a different continent, let’s focus on places in Tamriel for now. It could be somewhere on Akavir or Atmora, for example. For all we know, this game might not be on the continent of Tamriel like all previous games. So, do any locations we’ve seen in the other Elder Scrolls games look like this? As it turns out, many places we’ve seen could fit this description, but so could some that we haven’t. It looks like the vegetation begins to get less sparse closer to the valley and crater area, as if the camera shows us moving from a more arid environment towards a rocky, semi-forested coastal location. On the left there appears to be the ruins of some type of structure on the rim of some type of crater. As the mist clears, we see mountainous terrain surrounding a lower-lying valley along some coastline. Set to an increasingly intense and uniquely brassy rendition of the Elder Scrolls theme is a sweeping shot of a misty landscape. And while we’re at it, let’s assume the teaser shows us where the game occurs and not, say, someone’s dream about to be ravaged by Vaermina the Daedric Prince of Nightmares or some Todd Howard BS like that. Please note that while I will do my best to make this article easy to understand without a detailed knowledge of Elder Scrolls lore, etc., some of the things I’ll be looking at to give you the most inclusive look at what we might see does involve discussing some pretty esoteric lore.īefore getting into any predictions based on what I know about the Elder Scrolls universe and its lore, let’s first unpack what we see in the teaser trailer. So while it looks like we’ll have to satiate our hunger for the next main Elder Scrolls game with new The Elder Scrolls Online and The Elder Scrolls: Legends content plus the release of The Elder Scrolls: Blades in the fall, I don’t see any harm in starting up the fan theories for Elder Scrolls VI immediately! Here is a potentially-overkill-in-length account of my thoughts on what we might expect from The Elder Scrolls VI and why. How far into pre-production is Elder Scrolls VI? Where and when will it take place? What might we expect to see in it? Needless to say, we’ll eventually get definitive answers from Bethesda as production continues. Now that we have official confirmation that The Elder Scrolls VI isn’t going to become the new Half-Life 3 thanks to the brief teaser shown at Bethesda’s E3 2018 conference, all Elder Scroll fans want is more information.
