On Tuesday 3 November 2026, Bethesda revealed the full title of the next instalment in its role-playing game series: The Elder Scrolls VI: Sentinel. It is a new game, the sixth main entry in the series, following Skyrim, released in 2011. The game was announced in 2018, and this title, presented with a logo and a teaser, is the first concrete information about it in more than eight years. The release date, platforms and price have not been announced, and no pre-orders are open.

The Elder Scrolls VI: Sentinel, a title revealed for Bethesda Game Studios' 40th anniversary

The title was revealed in a video published on Bethesda's YouTube channel to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Bethesda Game Studios, the studio developing the game. In it, Todd Howard, director of The Elder Scrolls series, looks back at the history of the studio and its games. The Elder Scrolls VI was announced at E3 2018, a video game trade show. The studio points out that Skyrim is still its most played game, by total number of players.

The video shows the Sentinel logo and a short teaser made up of desert landscapes. It contains no gameplay footage. The teaser quotes a text by Yazar, a Moth Priest in the service of High Queen Iradne of Hammerfell, in which he says the scroll offered only a glimmer, a veil barely lifted before his eyes, and speaks of a lost future, an undone victory and the sands of time scattered by fate. The text is dated to the year 206 of the Fourth Era, a period in the calendar of the game's world. Skyrim takes place in the year 201 of the same era, so this date places Sentinel at least five years after the events of Skyrim.

Sentinel, a port city in Hammerfell

In the world of the series, Sentinel is a port city in the province of Hammerfell, on its north-west coast, on the Iliac Bay. Hammerfell is the homeland of the Redguards. The province lies west of Cyrodiil, where Oblivion was set, and south-west of Skyrim. Bethesda has not announced where the game will take place: for now, the title and Yazar's quote are the only clues linking it to Hammerfell.

Oblivion, released in 2006, has received a remastered version, which arrived on Switch 2 on 11 August 2026, as detailed in our article on Oblivion Remastered. For Sentinel, Bethesda has given no release date, no launch window and no platforms, and has not set a date to show the game. The announcement of its official title is published on Xbox's news site.

While waiting for the game, The Elder Scrolls collection is mainly made up of books and Funko POP figures.

Books: the official cookbooks of Tamriel

The Elder Scrolls: The Official Cookbook comes in two volumes. The first, written by Chelsea Monroe-Cassel, has 192 pages of recipes from Skyrim, Morrowind and all of Tamriel. The second, subtitled Recipes and Tales from Tamriel, has 208 pages. In France, Panini Books published a box set of the official cookbooks, credited to Chelsea Monroe-Cassel, Victoria Rosenthal and Erin Kwong, in November 2025.

The Elder Scrolls novels The Infernal City and Lord of Souls have also been published. Books from the series can be compared across partner shops in the following grid, from most to least popular.

Funko POP: Sheogorath and The Elder Scrolls figures

Funko released several figures for the series between 2015 and 2020, including a glow-in-the-dark Vivec (#221) and the Warden (#220). Sheogorath (#587), from the Skyrim collection, is a Daedra, a god of madness in the world of the series. The figure wears a purple and gold outfit and holds a grey staff topped with a carved head.

The Elder Scrolls POP figures, from the Whiterun Guard (#60) to Sheogorath (#587), vary widely in price from one figure to another and can be compared across partner shops.
