The Elder Scrolls 6: Hammerfell gameplay reveal leaked by insider

It’s been several years since The Elder Scrolls VI was unveiled by Bethesda on the stage at E3 and since then, the developer has been incredibly quiet.

Of course, we’ve had the release of Starfield in that time, and the company worked with Amazon to produce the Fallout TV show, but many fans are eagerly awaiting news on the next big RPG.

The Elder Scrolls 6 was unveiled in 2018 and it has been quiet since

It turns out that an insider has started to leak some information on the upcoming instalment in the long-running Elder Scrolls franchise.

Before we get into any details, this comes from an insider and should be taken with a pinch of salt until we hear something more substantial from Bethesda.

Let’s get into the details, which have been reported by eXtas1s on YouTube.

Heading up the leak is the potential setting for The Elder Scrolls VI, which is said to be Hammerfell, possibly confirming something that many fans had already figured out.

The leaker goes on to say that naval battles will be a huge feature of the game, which will be supported by shipbuilding.

This would be a massive step forward in world exploration and personalisation for players who can hopefully construct a ship and sail the seas.

Shipbuilding is, apparently, inspired by spaceship construction from Starfield, which makes a lot of sense.

There will also be underwater exploration with archipelagos to investigate on your travels.

Those are the big details, as everything else feels rather generic to report - combat is being significantly improved, and the character progression has been overhauled.

Both things you would expect from a sequel to a game over a decade old.

This could all be pointing to a 2025 reveal of the game, as it sounds like production is quite far along, so we’ll have our eyes peeled for Summer Games Fest.
