As noted in
this Pete Hines tweet,
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, the next game in The Elder Scrolls series was announced at last night's video game awards, as the tweet says: "For all those who have been asking, TESV, sequel to Oblivion, has been announced. Skyrim will be here on 11.11.11. Wait till you see it."
The Elder Scrolls Website has a teaser trailer for the game, which also concludes with that November 11 release date. On a related note,
The Elder Scrolls Facebook page invites you to join the elder council, also offering
this image from the trailer.
This tweet indicates the game will be using an all new engine, which we would guess is id's Tech 5 engine being created for
RAGE and
DOOM 4.
