New Updates on Elder Scrolls VI: Playable and Promising, says Bethesda

Bethesda’s Iconic Elder Scrolls Franchise Celebrates 30 Years

Bethesda’s beloved Elder Scrolls franchise recently reached a major milestone, as it turned 30 years old. To celebrate this momentous occasion, the company took to social media to share a short history of the series with fans.

In addition to looking back on the past three decades of The Elder Scrolls, Bethesda also provided some exciting updates on the future of the franchise. The company confirmed that early builds of the highly anticipated The Elder Scrolls VI are currently being played by the development team.

Fans have been eagerly awaiting any news about the next installment in the Elder Scrolls series, especially after Todd Howard’s statement back in 2016 that the game was still a long way off. However, in 2018, Bethesda officially announced The Elder Scrolls VI with a vague teaser, sparking speculation among gamers.

While details about the game have been scarce as Bethesda focuses on developing Starfield, it has been revealed that the next entry in the franchise will be set in Tamriel, possibly in the region of Hammerfell. Additionally, there are rumors that The Elder Scrolls VI may be exclusive to Xbox and PC, skipping PlayStation.

According to court documents, the expected launch date for The Elder Scrolls VI may not be until 2026 or later, leaving fans with a long wait ahead. Todd Howard has also hinted that this game may be the last big project he directs, adding to the sense of anticipation surrounding its release.

On a related note, Fallout fans may also have a long wait in store, as Howard’s comments suggest that Fallout 5 may not be released until 2035. Despite the long timelines, fans of Bethesda’s immersive open-world games are sure to be eagerly anticipating the arrival of both The Elder Scrolls VI and Fallout 5 in the coming years.
