The Elder Scrolls series is amongst the most popular of the fantasy RPG genre and excitement for our next venture into Tamriel, is enough to excite fans worldwide.
However, Bethesda announcedThe Elder Scrolls VIduring E3 2018. Obviously, over five years have now passed and we’ve learned absolutely nothing about the game, at least officially. All we’ve had to make do with is the initial 2018 teaser trailer. Since that time we’ve seen no gameplay, let alone knowing its release date.

That being said, whenMicrosoft finalised the $7.5 billion takeoverof Bethesda’s parent company ZeniMax Media, it’s more than likely thatThe Elder Scrolls VIwill only be released on PC and Xbox Series X|S, and not PlayStation 5, sadly. Other than that, it’s anyone’s guess when it might arrive, but one developer has made an intriguing educated prediction of how Bethesda may tease the nextThe Elder Scrolls VIreveal in the coming months.

When speaking on the YouTube channel MinnMax,during an interview, Bruce Nesmith who was the lead designer onSkyrim, before he left Bethesda in 2021, believes that we might not hear aboutThe Elder Scrolls VIuntil six months before it launches, similar to howBethesdaannouncedFallout 4at E3 2015. For reference,Fallout4was released on 10 November 2015, five months after it was announced.
Obviously, we’ve already mentioned thatThe Elder Scrolls VIwas announced over five years ago so that six-month window has well and truly passed. That being said, Nesmith explained how Bethesda should or might handle the next reveal of the highly anticipated fantasy RPG.
“Only the fact that the pitchforks and torches were out is what got Todd to say, ‘Yes, we’re gonna doThe Elder Scrolls VI. I promise you! It’s for real! It’ll happen!’ But I’m betting you won’t hear much in the way of details until six months before, which is the way it should be,” he explained. “I think that’s the best approach. He’s proven that works really well for Bethesda.”
