is still a long way off, to put it lightly. Bethesda is busy with , an incredibly ambitious spacefaring RPG with 1,000 planets to explore. But forget those 1,000 planets, because TES fans are still itching to find out which💮 province we'll be visiting in the sixth game.
Between Skyrim and TES 6, we've had 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:The Elder Scrolls Online launch, rebranded, and updated with 25 DLC making almost all of Tamriel explorable. Meanwhile, fans are chugging away to remake Oblivion and 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Morrowind while another dedicated team 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:brought Daggerfall to the Unity 🌺engine. Nothing official has launched aside from the mobile game❀ Blades and the now-defunct card game Legends, but there's still information out there to pry from the seams.
Updated on July 4, 2023, by James Troughton: Due to the recent FTC hearings regarding the Microsoft Activision Blizzard King buyout and multiple interviews with executive producer Todd Howard, we do know a little bit about what's in store thanks to some cryptic clues and even more cryptic teasers. That's why we have updated this article with the most recent information on The Elder Scrolls 6.
The Elder Scrolls 6 Release Date - 2028 At The Earliest
According to Bethesda boss Todd Howard, most of the team is working on Starfield while The Elder Scrolls 6 is currently in its "168澳洲幸运5开奖网:design [phase]". Starfield comes out on Septembe🥂r 6, 2023, so Bethesda will be shifting its focus fai꧋rly soon.
However, Xbox head Phil Spencer claims that 168澳🍎洲幸运5开奖网:the game is still at least five years away from launch, meaning that it♐ won't be here until 2028 at the earliest📖.
The Elder Scrolls 6 Setting - Unknown
Bethesda shared a CGI teaser in 2018 that shows a vague sweeping shot of mountains and plains, which many believe might be High Rock, H♌ammerfell, or both.
These theories were fueled again in 2020 when Bethesda dropped a picture of Skyrim with three candles scattered on top. It said that if you "transcribe the past," you can "map the future." Many took that to mean the image was a puzzle with the answ💛er being the setting. The candles mark Solitude, Yngvild, and Elinhir, a town in Hammerfell.
Starfield Teaser
There's also what looks like a teaser for The Elder Scrolls 6 in one of Starfield's trailers. There's a small scratching on the ship's console that is oddly reminiscent of Iliac Bay, the water between Hammerfell and High Rock.
It's looking more and more likely that TES6 will take us to the home of the Redgua𒁃rd people, which we have seen snippets of in the dedicated Redguard game, The Elder Scrolls Online, and Daggerfall.
The Elder Scrolls 6 Trailer
The official announcement trailer is only 36 seconds long and is entirely CGI. It was 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:unveiled at E3 2018, showing off the new logo and the mountainous plains mentioned prior.
The Elder Scrolls 6 Engine
Daggerfall ran on XnGine, while Morrowind, Oblivion, and Fallout 3 ran on Gamebryo. Bethesda then revamped and iterated on Gamebryo to make the Creation Engine which was used for Skyrim and 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Fallout 4.
With the advent of Starfield, Bethesda developed Creation Engine 2, which is also being used for The Elder Scrolls 6. Bethesda is putting a🌺 lot of stock in its new engine, so we could see a similar leap in🥂 quality as we did from the likes of Fallout 3 to 4.
Is Elder Scrolls 6 Going To Be Xbox Exclusive?
Ever since Microsoft bought Bethesda, its games have been exclusive to Xbox — Starfield and Redfall are not available on PlayStation. However, future games will be handled on a case-by-case basis, and there's no confirmation as of writing about whether T🥃ES6 will join other Bethesda games as Xbox exclusives.
Industry insider Jeff Grubb claimed that " [the tweet is n🧜ow gone]," which Sony also believes to be the case. Until Microsoft or Bethesda announce anything, we simply don't know.
Skyrim Grandma Will Appear As An NPC
Shirley Curry, an 82-year-old YouTuber known for playing Skyrim, was recently 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:added as a companion thanks to a mod, but Bethesda i🔯s going to take it a step further.
168澳洲幸运5开奖网:She will be appearing as a non-playable character in The Elder Scrolls 6 thanks to a fan petition signed by 45,000 people.
The Elder Scrolls 6 Mod Support
Bethesda and modding go 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:hand in hand. A huge part of Skyrim's longevity is its 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:dedicated modding community, the same community remaking Morrowind and Oblivion, expanding into new territories like Bruma and Hammerfell, but there's no word on whether The Elder Scrolls 6 will have mod support.
Nonetheless, with modding being inte🌟grated directly into Skyrim's re-release and Fallout 4 — even on cons♉oles — it's safe to say that Bethesda will uphold tradition and let the fans go wild.
