Redfall appears in trademark listings – and Elder Scrolls fans think it’s a clue to TES6

A curious trademark listing appeared earlier this week, with Bethesda parent ZeniMax registering the title ‘Redfall’ for a videogame and associated media. This could be related to any title under the company’s purview, including everything from Dishonored and Prey to The Evil Within, but Elder Scrolls fans are speculating this might have something to do with the upcoming sixth game in the series. Redfall was registered by ZeniMax on September 10, and our only clues beyond the name come from how the company’s previous trademarks have been handled. Game titles and subtitles are typically registered separately - for example, ‘The Elder Scrolls,’ ‘Morrowind,’ ‘Oblivion,’ and ‘Skyrim’ are all separate trademarks. The same rule applies to expansions, so this could be a new addition to a game like Fallout 76 or The Elder Scrolls Online. But it’s worth noting that the last ESO expansion, Summerset, was trademarked the same day it was announced - if that pattern holds, it’s unlikely that Redfall will be in that category. It’s also worth noting that no id Software properties appear among ZeniMax’s trademarks, so it’s unlikely this is related to Doom or Wolfenstein.
