The name for Elder Scrolls 6 might have just been trademarked by Bethesda. On 10th of September, the parent company behind all releases from Bethesda, ZeniMax, filed a new trademark for “Redfall.” All we know is that the filing is for a “computer game software for use with computers and video game consoles” and nothing else.
This clue might not lead to an Elder Scrolls 6 title as random ideas and names are trademarked by companies every time they have new intellectual property. The only official announcement we have heard about is the one at E3 which assured us that the game is being worked on. Aside from that, Bethesda said nothing else “Redfall” related. When the company held its QuakeCon event, we hoped for receiving some further information, but that did not happen either.
The fifth Elder Scrolls game, Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, looks like it is keeping its popularity and it was itself trademarked as a single name. The first trademark created for ES5 was Skyrim, and nobody says “Redfall” will not follow the same style. Starfield is the upcoming release from Bethesda, and it was also discovered by trademark filing, so this should be the reason why we are so sure about them.
Some speculators from Reddit has also been thinking that the fill might have something to do with a race of highly-skilled warriors from Hammerfell, the Redquards.
Even though the Redfall trademark is related or not, fans are still excited to receive further information and news regarding Elder Scrolls 6. They might receive what they want during The Game Awards event or an E3 event, but that remains to be seen. We should at least be happy to know that the game is being worked on and we only need to wait for it to be finished.
