Gaming News Roundup: Elder Scrolls VI, Tsushima, Kingdom Hearts — Full Breakdown & Transcript

[00:01] Xbox may have teased the official title Tsushima is getting a beefy single-player expansion and other new content, and there might be Kingdom Hearts IV news coming later this week.

[00:13] Hearts IV news coming later this week. Let's get into it.

[00:25] Scrolls VI, and we've basically gotten no news since then. And this doesn't exactly change things, but Xbox CEO Asha Sharma reports that she's seen the game in action and has come away sounding pretty impressed. Posting on X, Sharma

[00:38] wrote, "Quote, live playthrough of The Elder Scrolls VI redacted this morning. The scale and grandeur are incredible. The story is even greater." Okay, so I'm entire playthrough of the full game, but it is reassuring to hear that the game

[00:50] Bethesda is willing to demo a vertical slice. Not exactly surprising to hear but what's interesting here is the redacted subtitle. Now, take all this could just be using an arbitrary number of asterisks as shorthand for a redacted

[01:05] word that has more or less than eight letters, but that hasn't stopped fans eight-letter subtitle could be. Earlier rumors and fan speculation have placed High Rock where the very first Elder Scrolls took place way back in 1994 in

[01:20] Elder Scrolls Arena. But if the subtitle is in fact eight letters with no space, that rules both of those titles out. One popular eight-letter frontrunner is Hammerfell. Previous Elder Scrolls games have been named after cities or

[01:32] provinces of the realm of Tamriel, so Sentinel would fit nicely alongside working title was allegedly Project Guardian, and a guardian is synonymous with a sentinel. A couple other locations that could work are Evermore,

[01:45] Starfall, which is another name given to Iliac Bay, a major body of water in the will put a heavy emphasis on ship building and nautical exploration, but I feel like Starfall is a little too close to Starfield. One other possibility is

[01:59] Aldmeri Dominion, which in the lore is a coalition of elves who take over Oblivion, so I feel like that could work, too. The Elder Scrolls 6: Dominion. I like the sound of it. And of course, some have jokingly guessed that

[02:12] it's short for The Elder Scrolls 6: New Vegas, one word, or Skyrim 2, no space. Elder Scrolls 6, whatever it's called, sooner than later. Speaking of big, year's best is getting some major updates very soon. This morning,

[02:27] The Complete Edition, which includes a ton of new content. For players who want Sekigahara, which will have Jin exploring a whole new area and will add and more. If you're more after a challenge, there's also Most Wanted,

[02:43] survival mode that gives the bounty hunting from the base game kind of a October 1st. It's included with the complete edition, which you can buy for $69.99, but if you already own the base game, you can grab all that new DLC for

[02:57] $14.99. But wait, there's more. A free patch will also go live on October 1st, improvements, but also adds a new Beauty of Tsushima mode, which uses the game's gorgeous environments as a nice, chill screensaver, of sorts. You can find the
