Naturally, the trailer has already led to a significant amount of speculation online! Many have pointed out that the armor appearing around the 43-second mark seems to be of Breton design. The ships in the trailer have also led to some interesting theories. Some have pointed to their placement on the map as a hint they could be headed towards the destroyed continent of Yokuda. The official Xbox Twitter account replied to the Tweet above with a reference to getting “seasick,” which could be a hint about some kind of ship combat.

Of course, all of this is just speculation until we get some kind of official word from Bethesda! Clearly, the trailer has done its job building hype for the official reveal. Fans seem very excited to see where things are heading for the MMO, and there has even been praise for the trailer’s latest remix of the Elder Scrolls theme. It would be impossible for Bethesda to make everyone happy, but hopefully the big reveal will offer plenty to get fans excited for the future. For now, we’ll just have to wait and see! 

The Elder Scrolls Online is available now on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Google Stadia, and PC. You can check out all of our previous coverage of the game right here.
