The City shown in the Elsweyr Trailer

ArchMikem

When I saw it I immediately asked "What city is that??" So knowing this is Elsweyr and judging by the surrounding environment, from itself being in the Desert and how Tharn and the Khajiit can see it in the distance from a mountain side with some greenery, I'm going to guess maybe it's Corinthe? But some maps I've seen places it still within the Tenmar Forest, so maybe it's actually Orcrest. It can't be Dune cause it's already in the game, and it's a hamlet compared to the city shown, complete with it's own extensive city walls.

I'm also curious about that little Prisoner caravan heading into the city. Everyone's favorite Breton "Hero" is back, but the thing is he's being guarded by Ebonheart Pact Argonians along with Imperial Legion escorts. Is this supposed to imply the War is over?

Those are Archein Guards most likely as they are both heavily armed and associated with a group of Imperials. Archein are a tribe of Argonian slavers who occasionally serve as advisors to the Empire and are affiliated with House Dres. The same guards were also seen guarding a Dunmeri VIP.

The city is gorgeous though! I too wonder what the city may be.

When i saw it my first thought was... Oooh, its Ba Sing Se

The Breton hero represents us. As he is a prisoner and all ES games including that expansion start you off as a prisoner, I’m guessing that’ll be the beginning of the tutorial. You create your character in the cage and then an argonian lets you out/the dragon breaks the caravan and you escape

I believe Rich said it was Rimmen somewhere in the twitch post show.

Aliyavana

It is Rimmen, the architecture looked Akavari to me.

Revokus

So they said they are going to only give more information about everything at BE3 which is usually june 10th but the chapter comes out june 4th ?? I don't get it lol

Rich did imply that a Dragon would be involved with the tutorial so youre probably on to something here.

Or in this case, you're about to be decapitated for invading the Imperial City with undead and Daedra, then a Dragon appears.

Southwest in the Tenmar forest, just off the Border with Grahtwood.

They said it's Rimmen.

Very excited to get to explore it, it far surpasses what I was expecting it to look like. I knew in Infernal City they called the place beautiful, but dang that was an understatement. Those Tsaesci really know how to build cities!

It looks as though Torval, Corinthe and Senchal won't be in this chapter, since they're focusing on the northern half of Elsweyr. This leaves open future DLC's to be set there, further expanding upon the different Khajiit sub-species and really fleshing out those cities properly. Nobody wants a repeat of Dusk and Cloudrest

I think the argonians are just mercenaries as they appear to be the same as in the Morrowind Trailer
