If internet sleuths and Elder Scrolls lore experts are right, then High Rock (and possibly Hammerfell) is going to be the setting for The Elder Scrolls 6. We haven\u2019t got a ton of stuff to go on, but some astute dissections of the (now four-year-old) trailer, as well as analyses of that strange mark in last year\u2019s Starfield reveal trailer make for some compelling evidence that the next Elder Scrolls game will indeed be set in the northwestern regions of Tamriel.<\/p>\n

So in preparation for a game that should be with us within the next, say, 20 years, we\u2019ve decided to delve into its likely setting of High Rock \u2013 a land of diverse terrain, complex politics, and a history that\u2019s as old as Tamriel itself.<\/p>\n

Note that most of this information is based on the events of earlier games in the series, which all occur chronologically throughout the Third and Fourth Eras \u2013 3E and 4E \u2013 apart from The Elder Scrolls Online, which is set during the Second Era (2E). The mainline series, The Elder Scrolls 1-5, has always progressed chronologically with each successive entry, so assuming that The Elder Scrolls 6 will continue in the chronology, it\u2019s likely to take place some time after the events of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim \u2013 maybe even a couple of hundred years.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Obviously, a lot can happen in a couple of hundred years, and it\u2019s very possible that the state of High Rock will be quite a bit different to when we last heard of it.<\/p>\n
With that in mind, here\u2019s an overview of the High Rock region.<\/p>\n
