Are Fallout and Elder Scrolls In The Same Universe?

For some time people have speculated that Fallout and Elder Scrolls exist in the same universe. Sure there’s some minor connections like, sweet rolls, the dragonborn’s helmet appearing in a magazine, certain art deco sculptures resembling dwemer architecture and a few other things. But these are just references, all of them, including everything from the creation club, isn’t canon. So why are people saying they share a universe?

I use to patrol the Mojave, but then I took an arrow to the knee 😔

Two possibilities for the "Same Universe" theory:
1. Fallout is a previous or future Kalpa of the Elder Scrolls.
2. The universe is vast - Same universe, different planet. Could even be - same universe, different galaxy.

“Are these in the same Universe”

Less than 30 seconds in: “Conclusively not, for the most obvious reason.”

Yet there’s still 11 minutes left…

this is how I know we haven’t had an actual fallout or TES game in a decade

Ultimate plot twist, the Dragonborn is actually wandering the wasteland and is just tripping balls on jet hence why everything looks different

[AdamWasn]

This reminds me of the lore from Adventure Time where the humans nuke themselves causing the world to become a fantasy world

[grimslade]

Ah, so that explains why all of the Brotherhood of Steel will have all suddenly vanished by Fallout 5... They shouldn't have fiddled around with the Heart of Ug-Qualtoth!

*A lone wastelander travels through the irradiated sand that was once Death Valley. A name it lives up to, for not even creatures of the wasteland can survive long. Their supplies run low; they only have a couple of purified waters and one box of BlamCo Mac and Cheese. They fall to their knees, exhausted from their travels, before taking a drink of water. One left. Not enough for the rest of the journey, but if they can just ration it… but what's this? Off in the distance, they spot what appears to be the body of a pack brahmin. It is! Even at this distance, they can see its only bones, but it may still have leftover supplies! With all their might, they sprint towards the fallen animal, ignoring the aching feeling in their legs. They reach the skeleton, rummaging through the pack that cling loosely to its bones. They manage to recover some loot: caps, cram, and a couple of 10mm rounds. That's when they spot the glint. Within the ribcage of the brahmin lies a strange item, reflecting the light of the sun. It's spherical, white, and has some otherworldly energy to it. The wastelander reaches out, mesmerized by the object. Perhaps it held some value? They could sell it for some caps if they find the right buyer. Oh, the things they'll buy! Chems to forget their worries, a good meal to fill their grumbling stomach, and perhaps they'll treat themselves to an ice cold Nuka-Cola. As they grab their newfound fortune, their blood runs cold as a commanding voice speaks to them.*

What crossed my mind was when the Nukes were dropped on Fallout, a bunch of scandinavians took off in a rocket ship and were in suspended animation for thousands of years. Then they landed on Tamriel and been there for along time.
One lore in Skyrim or is it ESO was that the Nords are unknown where they came from. So that's where Starfield might be involved on how they got there. I haven't played Starfied yet, so I'm just thinking outload. It could be an interesting quest in all three games.

Ug-Qualtoth defiantly feels like a daedric God .

Dwemer power armor would be AMAZING! Bronze coloured, steam powered, I guess similar to the dwarven centurion only you can enter it to control it. I could see the dwarves making something like this as an experiment. I doubt it will be in any Elder Scrolls games, but it’s still pretty cool to think about.

[Reyma]

I have never understood the theory that Fallout and Elder Scrolls are in the same universe. The two franchises were technically created independently, as Bethesda acquired the Fallout IP.

[cutlass]

The biggest clue is the "sun" in Elder Scrolls isn't a sun.

[Headlessgenie]

An issue is also the clear existence of the gods of elderscrolls. They make their pressance known and have occasionally corroborated the creation of the world.
While the history is incomplete, it has alot of information, true and false, but the gods have shared some information to those who would have it written down.
