In fact, according to Hines again, Bethesda will remain Bethesda in its core. The answer is no, Microsoft will not be meddling with Bethesda’s games. Will Microsoft’s purchase of Bethesda change anything? That being said, I would strongly advise you to not hold your breath. So when will we get more info on The Elder Scrolls 6? Well, Starfield is Bethesda’s first new original franchise in over 20 years, so it’s safe to say that it will be a while before we get a glimpse of what is to come in The Elder Scrolls 6.īoth Oblivion and Skyrim were shown off relatively close to their release dates, and since Starfield is set to be released in early 2021, I’m guessing we will only get the juicy details of The Elder Scrolls 6 mid-2021 or perhaps even later than that. So if you’re coming at me for details now and not years from now, I’m failing to properly manage your expectations. It’s after Starfield, which you pretty much know nothing about. The game has been announced and confirmed, yet, according to VP of Bethesda public relations and marketing Pete Hines, it would seem Bethesda is currently focusing entirely on Starfield, their new space RPG. I mean, with Bethesda’s silence on the subject and the unexpected pandemic, my hopes for a 2020 launch are now in shambles. In fact, since E3 2018, there hasn’t been a single shred of news about the game, which, understandably, has been making players quite frustrated. The Elder Scrolls 6 was announced in 2018, but the game is still a long way off.
