Bethesda's invite for their Bethesdaland event.

This year's Electronic Entertainment Expo will be a historic one as this will be the first time that the event's gates will be open to the gaming public. In line with this, Bethesda's Pete Hines has recently revealed their invites for the upcoming event that made fans musing as of late. From the looks of it, the invite design seems to hint that the game maker could be spilling out details about the long-awaited "The Elder Scrolls 6."

Hines took to Twitter to announce that they are about to dish out tickets for their Bethesda event at the upcoming expo. The inviting layout was designed like a theme park where its major attractions were all referenced to their acclaimed and recently released titles, according to Gaming Bolt.

However, a couple of these attractions - the one with the "under construction" sign on the top left and a "coming soon" on the bottom right - has intrigued the fandom. Albeit being a longshot, players are keeping their fingers crossed that one of those two mystery games will be "The Elder Scrolls 6."

Bethesda's game designer - Todd Howard has mentioned beforehand that "The Elder Scrolls 6" is pretty much out of the question as of late adding that the sequel is in its early stages of development. Moreover, Howard further explained that the company is currently working on seven major endeavors in which most of them are pretty much evident.

It can be recalled that Bethesda is as of late posting "The Elder Scrolls 5 Skyrim" to the Nintendo Switch alongside the development of "Fallout 4" to be playable in VR. Additionally, it was also mentioned that there are two more undisclosed titles that are still in the works that were described as "bigger than anything Bethesda has done" and different, but still the kind of title that can still be associated with them.

If rumors are anything to go by, it is quite likely that Bethesda might announce "The Evil Within 2" instead of "The Elder Scrolls 6." It was believed as such when an alleged job posting was leaked over at NeoGAF suggesting that the sequel - whose Japanese title was dubbed as "PSYCHOBREAK 2," is in need of a UK bug translator. Fans of the game, however, are advised to chew on this with pinches of salt as it is circumstantial at the moment.

Bethesda's event will be held on June 11. Check out a video about "The Elder Scrolls 6" here:
