The Elder Scrolls 6 announcement is now as old as predecessor Skyrim was when The Elder Scrolls 6 was announced, and developer Bethesda hasn't shared another snippet since.
I believe that was the same year as Fallout 76, which has come out as being made to boost Bethesda’s stock before the Microsoft buyout. I would not be shocked at all if the trailer was put out solely for the same reason.
It was there to calm the fans. TES fans wanted the next TES but Bethesda didn’t really have anything about the next TES. They had FO76 (which is not a traditional Bethesda title), Elder Scrolls Blades (that nobody remembers) and Starfield (which they didn’t really elaborate on). To throw a bone to the TES fans, because nobody gives a shit about a mobile game, they said the game after Starfield will be TES6.
It was just something they did to prevent what Blizzard ended up doing a few months later with the Diablo Immortals reveal. And it worked because what do people remember 6 years later? Nobody cares about FO76 or TES: Blades or Starfield. All people remember is “Bethesda announced TES 6”.
