The wait forThe Elder Scrolls 6continues to be a test of patience among longtime fans of the Bethesda fantasy franchise. The original E3 announcement forThe Elder Scrolls 6was back in 2018, and since then, the game has yet to show itself again and E3 has been shut down. Seven long years have passed since that original announcement, and there has been a flood of speculation ever since.
From its story to its main setting, many fans ofThe Elder Scrollshave been trying to pin down what Bethesda has in store for this next chapter. One of the leading theories is thatThe Elder Scrolls 6could be set in Hammerfell. This hasn’t been confirmed, but if this is the case,The Elder Scrolls 6may already have a perfect option for in-game mounts: camels.
If The Elder Scrolls 6 is Set in Hammerfell, Camels Are Bound to Be Included
Hammerfell’s Climate Calls for Camels
Hammerfell boasts various climates that range from jungles to grasslands, but deserts are also present. The Alik’r Desert is a vast sea of sand that is found in the northwestern region of Hammerfell, and traversing it would easily require a camel. Sentinel, one ofHammerfell’s major kingdoms, sits within the Alik’r Desert, so it wouldn’t be surprising if the city offered plenty of camels for players to ride.
While assuming thatThe Elder Scrolls 6will be set in Hammerfell is purely speculation, theories are pretty much all gamers have at the moment.Bethesda has been incredibly tight-lippedsince dropping the game’s incredibly short teaser trailer. Until Bethesda denies these theories, the assumption is that Hammerfell is the most likely setting for the game. Spotlighting camels isn’t just because of speculation, though.The Elder Scrolls Onlinehas already featured a camel from Hammerfell as a mount, so it would only be a natural progression.

Hammerfell Camels Have Been Part of The Elder Scrolls Online for Nearly a Decade Now
ForThe Elder Scrolls Onlineplayers, camel mounts are nothing new. After nearly 10 years of being available in the game, it would only make sense for such a mount to be featured ina Hammerfell-centric story. It’s possible that adding the Hammerfell Camel toThe Elder Scrolls Onlinewas even a teaser forThe Elder Scrolls 6’s setting, but this may simply be wishful thinking. After nearly a decade, it’s unlikely that developers dropped a hint that far in advance.
There is Currently No Elder Scrolls 6 News in Sight
Bethesda has been keeping quiet about more than just one project. The developer’s most recent game,Starfield, has been anticipated to get a second DLC, but so far, nothing has been revealed. AfterStarfieldwas absent from the Xbox Games Showcase, many are wondering when Bethesda will break any fresh news regarding its projects, especiallyThe Elder Scrolls 6.
LikeStarfield,The Elder Scrolls 6is being developed with Creation Engine 2.
Right now, only time will tell whenmore information aboutThe Elder Scrolls 6is ready. It’s even possible that the game may not be ready until the next generation of consoles. If that’s the case, thenThe Elder Scrolls 6may not arrive until 2028 or later. The wait continues, but it will be exciting to finally know ifThe Elder Scrolls 6is set in Hammerfell or not.
