Elder Scrolls 6 Sentinel theory: the Starfield easter egg that spells the subtitle

Theory Briefing

  • A hidden sequence in Starfield's character creator spells out SENTINEL, the word fans are treating as Elder Scrolls 6's subtitle.
  • Sentinel is a real city in Hammerfell, the region long theorised as Elder Scrolls 6's setting based on the 2018 teaser.
  • The easter egg theory suggests Bethesda embedded the subtitle years early, hiding it inside a different game entirely.
  • Sceptics argue the letter sequence could be coincidental, since character creators offer many combinable options.
