"The Elder Scrolls VI: Microsoft's Surprising 2026 Release Date Revelation"

Microsoft's lawyer revealed during the FTC v. Microsoft trial that The Elder Scrolls VI is targeting a 2026 release date, contradicting previous expectations that the game was at least five years away. With Bethesda currently focused on Starfield, it remains unclear if the release date target is realistic. Todd Howard, the game's director, has stated that The Elder Scrolls VI will likely be his last game, signaling potential changes for future Bethesda titles. The game is currently in development with no confirmed release date.
