Bethesda's creative director Todd Howard hinted that the successful shadow drop of Oblivion Remastered was a test for releasing future games like Elder Scrolls VI or Fallout 3 remasters without prior announcement, emphasizing a preference for surprise releases over prolonged teasers.
The Elder Scrolls VI was announced over seven years ago at E3 2018, but fans remain disappointed as there has been no gameplay, release date, or substantial updates since then, with the latest news only involving new content for The Elder Scrolls Online. Fans are hopeful for more information next year, but the wait continues, leaving them to enjoy remastered versions of Skyrim and Oblivion in the meantime.
To celebrate the 30th anniversary of The Elder Scrolls, Bethesda confirmed that early builds of The Elder Scrolls VI are being played and enjoyed by the team. The game is likely set in Tamriel, and it may be exclusive to Xbox and PC, skipping PlayStation entirely. Court documents and statements from Xbox boss Phil Spencer suggest a potential release date of 2026 or later, with Todd Howard hinting that it might be his last big game.
Xbox boss Phil Spencer has hinted at the possibility of The Elder Scrolls VI being available on PlayStation 5, despite previous statements suggesting it would be an Xbox exclusive. Spencer stated that they evaluate exclusivity on a case-by-case basis and aim to make their games available on multiple platforms, including Xbox consoles, PC, and cloud streaming. The highly anticipated fantasy RPG, which entered full development in August 2023, may not be released until at least 2028.
Bethesda has confirmed that fans should not expect any updates on "Elder Scrolls VI" in the near future, as the game is still in early development. The studio's focus is currently on the release of "Starfield," which has been in development since 2015. This suggests that "Elder Scrolls VI" is still several years away from being released.
In a recent court case, a Microsoft lawyer revealed that The Elder Scrolls VI is projected to be released as a single-player game in 2026, contradicting previous speculations. The lawyer clarified that The Elder Scrolls VI is not similar to Xbox or Call of Duty, and that it is separate from The Elder Scrolls Online. In the meantime, Bethesda's upcoming game, Starfield, is set to be released on September 6, 2023, for PC and Xbox Series X|S.
The Elder Scrolls VI was announced five years ago, but Bethesda has not provided any significant information about the game since then. The game is now a Microsoft exclusive, and it is expected to be released exclusively on Xbox consoles and PC. The game promises a new technology framework, but the story, setting, characters, and other crucial information about the game remain a mystery. Bethesda Game Studios' next release is Starfield, which releases in September and is getting its own Starfield Direct event on June 11.
