Until we get official confirmation though, these theories will just keep piling up. One user on Reddit caught a glimpse of an easter egg in the E3 2021 Starfield trailer which shows an etching of a location from The Elder Scrolls, indicating the next setting for the next game may be in Hammerfell. Until we get more information about the next installment in the franchise, the endless speculation will continue. 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. And, considering at this time there was no information out about Starfield, fans were already locked into a long wait. Back in May 2020, Pete Hines replied to a fan on Twitter stating that news would not come until after Starfield is released. As usual, Bethesda wants to wait until Starfield is almost ready before showing anything concrete, like how they’ve done before with Fallout 4 and DOOM.įans will have to wait a while longer for news on The Elder Scrolls VI if these comments are anything to go by. But, Bethesda has given us little to no information about the state of The Elder Scrolls VI, reiterating that the focus is sorely on the upcoming sci-fi RPG, which is due out in 2022. With Starfield briefly being shown at E3 2021, Bethesda has opened up a bit about its current status. The vast majority of our development work is on Starfield right now but everybody works on everything so the projects kind of intertwine.” Yes, Elder Scrolls 6 is in pre-production and, you know, we’re going to be doing Fallout 5 after that, so our. “The technology, Creation Engine 2, is sort of built for both ,” Howard said. Executive Producer Todd Howard confirmed in an interview with IGN that the highly-awaited sequel to The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim is now in the very early stages of development and that Fallout 5 will be coming right after that. Howard assured fans in the interview that the time spent working on the next RPG title Starfield will, in turn, lead to a better development process of The Elder Scrolls VI. “It’s good to think of The Elder Scrolls 6 as still being in a design … but we’re checking the tech: ‘Is this going to handle the things we want to do in that game?’ Every game will have some new suites of technology so Elder Scrolls 6 will have some additions to Creation Engine 2 that that game is going to require,” Howard said. Howard was sure to taper expectations about when the next update can be expected, saying that The Elder Scrolls VI is still in the design phase. Of course, anywhere that Todd Howard goes, questions about the next installment in The Elder Scrolls series are to follow.
