Its official announcement teaser was shared in 2018, a whopping five years ago and we’ve heard nothing since. Then, all the new details aboutStarfieldarose, blowing us away with itshighly-explorable galaxyand making us forget about the whole thing.
Bethesda made it clear that onceStarfieldis out the door, development onThe Elder Scrolls VIwould follow, according to new details from Peter Hines, Head of Publishing at Bethesda Softworks.
Hines recently spoke in an interview withVandal(viaResetEra) about the future of Bethesda, and what projects are on the horizon. Hines said “there are people working on The Elder Scrolls VI” but the majority of the team is still focused onStarfieldfor the time being. When asked if this meantThe Elder Scrolls VIis still in the pre-production/concept planning phase, Hines said: “No. It’s in development, but it’s in early development.”
Exciting news for Bethesda fans, and whileThe Elder Scrolls VIlikely won’t be the space epic thatStarfieldis, it’s almost guaranteed to blow us away with its scope. Bethesda exec Todd Howard recently said the next Elder Scrolls will be the"ultimate fantasy world simulator", as well as potentiallyhis last game.
