The confirmation came on November 3, 2026, according to Engadget and The Verge. The Verge reported that Bethesda revealed the name in a video running for less than 10 minutes and celebrating 40 years of Bethesda Game Studios.
The title announcement follows more than eight years after Bethesda first announced the existence of The Elder Scrolls VI, The Verge reported. The naming of Sentinel settles the identity of the next mainline game, but the available coverage does not establish when it will arrive.
Engadget reported that Bethesda has still provided no release date for The Elder Scrolls VI. The supplied coverage also does not establish the game's launch platforms.
