Confirming a recent report, Bethesda has confirmed the subtitle of the next Elder Scrolls game as The Elder Scrolls VI: Sentinel . This was shared as part of a 40-year-anniversary video recapping many of Bethesda's highlights over the year. Unfortunately, that's all that was shared about the game, though we did get a (very familiar-looking) title card showing the game's name in the classic Elder Scrolls font.
