## Key points

- Bethesda has revealed the title Sentinel.
- The game is reportedly more than two years away.
- Bethesda says development is continuing.

## Summary

Bethesda has named its next Elder Scrolls game The Elder Scrolls VI: Sentinel, more than eight years after first announcing the project. The reveal confirms the game’s name and location, but Bethesda says it will be some time before it shares more, and the game is not expected soon.

Bloomberg journalist Jason Schreier says the game remains more than two years away. He has suggested Bethesda announced it in 2018 partly to soften the reaction to Fallout 76, which disappointed fans who wanted the studio to focus on single-player games. Bethesda and Xbox chief executive Asha Sharma have said Sentinel is playable; Sharma previously described seeing a live playthrough.
