Summary
An eagle-eyedSkyrimfan online appears to have discovered a hiddenSpongeBobEaster egg in Alftand, one of the game’s Dwemer Ruins. Just when it seems as though gamers have discovered just about every secret inSkyrim, another appears out of nowhere.
Just like every other Bethesda game,Skyrimis filled with small Easter eggs hidden away for players to find. It’s never quite clear when everything hidden in the game has been discovered, which is part of the magic as to whySkyrimremains so popular almost 13 years after its initial launch. Late last year, gamers found a surpriseTitanicEaster Egg inSkyrim, adding to the idea that Bethesda likes to reference other franchises in its games. In 2024, most would believe that gamers have found everything thatSkyrimhas to offer, but this is proven to be incorrect, time and time again.
Redditor sushchestvovaniye shared an image of the newly discoveredSkyrimEaster egg, which they discovered in the Dwemer Ruins of Alftand. Hidden in a pile of rocks is a square design, with carvings that look suspiciously likeSpongeBob SquarePants. Although it could be a coincidence, looking at the similarities, it’s hard to imagine that this could happen accidentally. Several in the thread even compared it to DoodleBob, which is certainly a valid point. Unfortunately, the user never mentioned exactly where they discovered thisSpongeBobreference, although it being located next to a Dwemer pipe while looking south on the compass could offer a hint for those looking to find it for themselves.

How this secret has gone unnoticed for so long is extremely surprising, although some users in the thread had a theory about how it might have happened. While there are plenty ofamazingSkyrimmodsout there, many of them include undocumented changes and Easter eggs of their own. Some believe that this may have been included as part of a mod, although sushchestvovaniye has yet to respond to questions about whether this is the vanilla version ofSkyrim.
The fact that Easter eggs are still being found inSkyrimis awesome, and hopefully, Bethesda will take the same approach toThe Elder Scrolls 6. While it isn’t clear exactly when the game will be released, it remains one of thebiggest upcoming RPGs that people are excited aboutright now. IfThe Elder Scrolls 6does eventually feature a ton of hidden Easter eggs like other Bethesda titles, it could be a game that the community is talking about for many years to come.
