The going theory among one group of fans, which has only grown in the time since The Elder Scrolls 6's reveal, is that the Thalmor - the "elven supremacist" governing council of the Aldmeri Dominion, who serve as a kind of meta-baddie across the backgrounds of the recent Elder Scrolls games - are out to deactivate or destroy all of the eight magical towers in Nirn, the planet where The Elder Scrolls takes place.
There are some other reasons for it: fans voted most likely to suffer death by drowning in lore are also quick to point out that Hammerfell is the only region with a still functioning "magic tower", which sounds ridiculous but follow me, for a moment.

Feel free to read more on that possible Elder Scrolls 6 tease if you, too, have too much spare time - but the point again is Hammerfell. I took a closer look at that theory too, and concluded that it could be a Hammerfell tease, sure, but could also be a tease of the then-upcoming Oblivion expansion to The Elder Scrolls Online. Here's to a Happy New Year!🕯 /bL44CzLDIE- The Elder Scrolls DecemTo see this content please enable targeting cookies.Ī lot of people assumed that was another tease of The Elder Scrolls 6: Hammerfell Or Something Similar, mainly due to the light plonked in the region of Hammerfell on the map, right underneath the word "Hammerfell". The Elder Scrolls' official Twitter account posted this conspicuously-candlelit map: Then, in January this year, we got another tease. That's what I settled on, at least: after thinking far too hard about it I concluded in this overlong and wildly assumptive article about possible Elder Scrolls 6 locations that, if the trailer was intentionally depicting the actual location of the game, and if it actually depicted that location accurately, then it is almost certainly - but not certainly! - telling us the game will be set in Hammerfell, or both Hammerfell, High Rock and the surrounding area. Bethesda announced The Elder Scrolls 6 with that famous reveal trailer we've all watched a thousand times by now, and from that trailer people landed on Hammerfell, or maybe High Rock, or both, as the most probable location. The perfect tease! The thing is though, like any good, conspiratorial fan theory, all of this is based on assumptions, and all of it could amount to nothing. Exactly enough to get people wondering and exactly not enough for people to be certain. It does look a bit like it, doesn't it? Annoyingly like it - and annoyingly not exactly like it.

Here's the full trailer where you can view it. Pretty similar! In context, this is miniscule by the way.
Here's an image of the region Huhwtfbleh provided as a comparison: Image credit: u/Huhwtfbleh on r/gamingleaksandrumours subreddit. The suggestion is this little scratch looks awfully similar in shape to that of High Rock, Hammerfell and the Iliac Bay.

This time, the tease in question is especially small: overnight after Xbox's big E3 showcase, someone trawled through Bethesda's new Starfield trailer, frame-by-frame, and found a tiny shape etched onto the interior of the spaceship - which they think looks like the location of The Elder Scrolls 6.
It's Monday morning and I've had too much coffee, not enough sleep, and for neither the first nor the last time, Bethesda may or may not have just teased something about The Elder Scrolls 6.
