The last question is about… Next week we will finally be playing Starfield. We know that Bethesda Game Studios will continue to work on that, but can we expect that after the release of Starfield we will have more news, or any news, about The Elder Scrolls VI?

Let's see, over time, but years later. We have put all of our studios focused on making this game the best it can be. And yes, there are people working on The Elder Scrolls VI, but this is what the studio has focused on. So no, you are not going to hear early about The Elder Scrolls VI. Starfield is our focus for now, and it's going to remain our priority for a while before we talk about anything else.

Just to be clear, is The Elder Scrolls VI in pre-production or in a concept phase?

No. It's in development, but it's in early development.

[Elder Legend]

Can't wait for Eurogamer to cry gain how they did not get a Elder Scrolls VI Review Code, let the saga continue!

 

[TrueGrime]

Wow. This is actually great news!!

 

[Danknugz]

this or gta6 will release first? 2035?

 

[FinalBossWithTheMostPower]

 

[adamsapple]

Yeah, they're wrapping up on Starfield, probably a splinter group will remain for patches and DLC work.

I reckon the bulk of BGS staff is free to start work on TES VI now.

See y'all in 2029.

 

[Sleepwalker]

2032 probs

 

[Crayon]

I'm not thaaaat old but I do find myself hoping I'm still alive when this comes out.

 

[Elder Legend]

It will be a game released at the end of this generations cycle with a new-gen version with all the bells and whistles after PS6 and Xbox Next release sometime after their respective 2028 Holiday release date. So I'd say the real beefed up version probably in 2029 or 2030.

 

[MiguelItUp]

Oh shit! This is really exciting!

 

[Success]

Series S is going to gimp this game so much.

2029 is the first release date announcement, it'll then be pushed back a couple times, see you in 2030.

 

[Elder Legend]

Series S is going to gimp this game so much.

I really hope they just won't release it for that, but with Microsofts requirement/parity clause they'll have no choice unless they are willing to make an exception.

[Sleepwalker]

I think theres a chance its next gen only (as in nextbox/ps6 gen)

 

[JaksGhost]

I really hope they just won't release it for that, but with Microsofts requirement/parity clause they'll have no choice unless they are willing to make an exception.

By 2030 I see separated SKUs and a Series S trade in program for a Series X

 

[Dice]

Don't worry, they'll only take as long as they took for Starfield.

 

[Švejk]

Jeremy Soule or no deal.

 

[Elder Legend]

By 2030, Series S will be the equivalent of a PS1 in terms of power lol. Technology is moving faster than ever now, especially with the power of AI.

 

[MarkMe2525]

Series S is going to gimp this game so much.

That didn't take too long.

 

[Imtjnotu]

See you at the Series XX release in 2030

 

[mosantos]

Early? 2028

 

[Shubh_C63]

2028 here we come !

 

[Hawking Radiation]

Late current gen launch.

 

[PlayedStation]

This is exciting. Yeah, I'm thinking 2028.

 

[West Texas CEO]

I still need to buy 3 more copies of Skyrim, so that should hold me over until TES VI.

 

[Ginzeen]

i hope it doesn't come out the end of the console generation. Game might be too difficult to get stable on current gen consoles at that time. Its part of the reason why Cyberpunk got cooked at launch.

 

[gokurho]

Series S is going to gimp this game so much.

It will not be released in current generation.
I will play on Xbox seri XX in 2030

 

[Punished Miku]

I doubt it would be any different than Starfield in terms of graphics or system specs. Starfield is the big graphics / engine leap already. They dont do that for every single game. Oblivion, Fallout 3 and Skyrim were all similar graphically.

 

[nial]

I really hope they just won't release it for that, but with Microsofts requirement/parity clause they'll have no choice unless they are willing to make an exception.

why would they make an exception for a first-party game

 

[Elder Legend]

why would they make an exception for a first-party game

they wouldn't. It's just wishful thinking, the game will suffer now.

 

[Icymanipulator]

So another 6-9 years
OK

 

[In Cold Blood]

Fuck Elder Scrolls, get onto Fallout 5.

 

[L*][*N*K]

I personally don’t think this game will take THAT long, 2026 sounds like a reasonable timeframe for it, they have an established world, they will definitely use the same engine as Starfield, Microsoft’s buck…etc

 

[balls of snow]

Witcher 4 or Elder Scrolls 6 for 2027 goty.

 

[Mozzarella]

2026 or 2027 will be the release year. Crazy to think about it when Skyrim came in 2011, what a gap.

 

[ZoukGalaxy]

Great news ! Only 7 years to wait now to play it, we almost there !

/s

 

[gokurho]

Fuck Elder Scrolls, get onto Fallout 5.

Please wait until 2040, Coming Soon.

 

[adamsapple]

The sense of scale and scope will be completely different.

Focusing on one land mass instead of hundreds will probably be more streamlined and allow higher detail, I reckon.

 

[Kabelly]

this or gta6 will release first? 2035?

gta 6 looks to be in a pretty playable state. I reallly doubt Elder Scrolls comes out first.

 

[gow3isben]

2030 here we come!

 

[MujkicHaris]

I hope they return to Oblivion as a guide on how to create meaningful and fun quests. And interesting cities.
Oblivion is art.

No thanks. Oblivion has the most horrendous looking depictions of medieval fantasy I have ever seen.

 

[PlayedStation]

I understand because of Starfield's nature as a game with multiple planets, it has to be a hub-world type of game. I really do look forward to the return of one big open-world though.

 

[Barakov]

Nice. Starfield will keep up us busy until then.

 

[TheInfamousKira]

As a TES fan, I'm excited, because if the data tracks, this will be the last TES game to come out before I'm old and lame. Or dead.

 

[pqueue]

horse armor for everyone.

 

[Robb]

Only 5 more years to go then I guess..

 

[bitbydeath]

Finally!
I have no interest in Starfield, but this could be something special.
