Bethesda has finally given us the tiniest morsels of information about The Elder Scrolls 6: Sentinel, including the title and a few teasers about the lore. What are we to do with all this new-found excitement over the upcoming RPG? Well, Bethesda has a suggestion: you should probably buy a $35 T-shirt emblazoned with the game’s logo.
Yes, the official Bethesda Gear store is now selling a Sentinel tee, which features the game’s sparse logo on a black shirt. “Your next journey through Tamriel will be in The Elder Scrolls VI: Sentinel,” the store page promises. “Show off your excitement with the official tee!”
I think I’m pretty excited about Sentinel, though admittedly Microsoft’s willingness to simply discard veteran Bethesda talent has tamped down my giddiness a fair bit. Still, I count Morrowind, Oblivion, and Skyrim among my favorite games of all time, and I’m very eager to know what the studio’s next RPG will look like. I just don’t know if I’m “$35 T-shirt” levels of excited, you know?

But hey, T-shirts aren’t the only option. You can also spend $65 on the official Sentinel hoodie! Sure, that’s more expensive than the shirt, but at least it’ll likely survive a few more trips through the wash. And hey, there’s even a Klarna finance option that’ll allow you to pay $11 a month for the the thing, if you want to enter into minor debt for your mediocre video game merch.
I am by no means immune to the allure of spending too much money on video game memorabilia – I bought that Legend of Zelda Switch 2 despite already owning the console since launch, after all – but there’s something vaguely annoying about selling merch for a game that we still haven’t seen a single screenshot of. Especially when the merch in question appears to simply be a cheaply made, screen printed bit of apparel.
The Elder Scrolls 6 reportedly targeting a 2029 release – 18 years since Skyrim and 11 years since its own reveal
