![]() ![]() Ouch.įor the purpose of this article, we're simple calling the game Elder Scrolls 6. Given the time needed to produce the previous games in the series, this suggests we may not see the game until 2019 - which has been supported by other leaks and rumours. This is when the code that ships on game discs is cemented. This means that unless Bethesda has quietly been doubling (or more) its development team over the last year or two, the 'next Skyrim' will have only become the lead project when Fallout 4 went gold in October 2017. How do you think companies like EA crank out a new instalment of their big franchises every year? When producing Skyrim, Bethesda Game Studios used a fairly small team of around 100 developers, where the big AAA releases like Assassin's Creed will have upwards of 1,000 working on them at certain points. "I know what they're working on for the next decade, and I think all of them are things to get excited about, for different reasons, and once they come out, folks will enjoy them for what they are." "But at the end of the day, these folks have a right to not just have to make Elder Scrolls game after Elder Scrolls game, which is why they switched to Fallout, and they have a right to stretch their legs and try something else or do something different. "He's got reasons why, and I think once we get down the road, those reasons will be more evident to folks once we get there, or maybe not," Hines said. Hines also said he never questions how Todd Howard chooses what to create next. They've now made four games in a row, all of which were named Game of the Year, and they have a right to decide what they're interested in working on next and which direction they want to go." They're an incredibly talented studio of creative people. "They're not a two-button vending machine, where first we press Elder Scrolls and then we press Fallout, and then we press Elder Scrolls and then we press Fallout. "This studio is not a vending machine," he said. Hines has also said that Bethesda isn't a vending machine for games: When you think about what is the future of that kind of game, we have a pretty good idea of what that's going to be, and it's just going to take technology and time we don't necessarily have right now." We're not a developer that's going to rush something like this out. And that'll make sense many years from now." Bethesda marketing boss Pete Hines said at E3 2017 that the developer has "at least two major titles that they are working on before we're gonna get to Elder Scrolls 6".īethesda game director and Fallout 4 mastermind Todd Howard stated at E3 2016 that this pair of projects "bigger than anything we've done," and that "people will probably hear about those probably even before Elder Scrolls 6. Money demands it exists.įirst thing's first: The Elder Scrolls 6 isn't yet in development. The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim has sold more than 20 million copies, making it easily the most successful game in the 20-year-old series, and by a huge margin. The game doesn't even officially exist yet. The amount of official information available on the follow-up to Skyrim could be written on the back of a Starbucks receipt in marker pen. Here's everything we know about it so far. But we've been digging through the many pages of nonsense you'll find online to see which bits make sense. The Elder Scrolls 6 is currently a figment made largely of whisked-together rumours and internet conjecture. Unfortunately, we've probably still got a long, long wait in front of us for our next taste of Bethesda fantasy. It's definitely time for The Elder Scrolls 6. The Elder Scrolls 6 release date, news, Valenwood location, and everything you need to know old article (3 March 2017), but some nice thoughts ![]()
