In another different interview, Todd Howard referred to a "major engine rewrite" being worked on for Starfield. "And so it's something that's going to take a lot of time, what we have in mind for that game." "I could sit here and explain the game to you, and you would say, 'That sounds like you don't even have the technology-how long is that going to take?'" he said. In 2016, Howard suggested that the technology needed to create Bethesda's vision for it just wasn't there yet at the time. Howard has previously mentioned work being done on Bethesda's Creation Engine as the required foundation for The Elder Scrolls 6. "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 on to Creation Engine 2 that that game is going to require." "It's good to think of The Elder Scrolls 6 as still being in a design ," Todd Howard said in a June 2021 interview. How far along is The Elder Scrolls 6's development? Or it could drive Bethesda to revisit a previous province, like High Rock, which again is the most popular guess. That could either prompt TES6 to boldly cast its direction overseas, such as to the mysterious continent of Akavir, an exotic land hosting friendly-sounding races such as the Snow Demons of Kamal and the vampiric, snake-like Tsaesci. Thanks to The Elder Scrolls Online, the range of uncharted territory in Tamriel is shrinking. We can't rule out that we might be headed back to somewhere already covered, of course. Granted, the teaser could've been intentionally misleading.

Valenwood also feels unlikely, as we know it to be full of swampland. That said, we're doubtful, given that Elsweyr has been explored in an Elder Scrolls online expansion from 2019.īlack Marsh is probably a no. Secondly, it's the Khajiit's homeland, and it might make sense to focus on one of Skyrim's most popular races. For one thing, it doesn't show up a lot, so there's lots of room to fill in blanks. Hammerfell is home to the Redguard people and its Alik'r Desert could line up with the rocky, arid environment shown in the original teaser trailer.Įlsweyr is a tiny possibility. Fans have speculated that the placement of candles on the image is a clue, most notably the one placed beneath the word "Hammerfell" in the undrawn area of the map West of Skyrim. No one is quite sure if the image posted is really a clue about Elder Scrolls 6, but the message about "mapping the future" sure does seem like it could be. Thanks to a New Year's post by Bethesda at the very end of 2020, Hammerfell is another possible destination. Speaking of Hammerfell, Bethesda already might have teased it as a location as well. It's a very tiny detail that could be nothing, but it sure is a distinct shape. It also looks suspiciously like Tamriel's Illiac Bay, which sits between High Rock and Hammerfell. A very small scratch on the interior of a spaceship looks suspiciously like a drawing of a landmass. Here's the one and only Elder Scrolls 6 trailerĪdding to the speculation, the Starfield trailer from E3 2021 included a possible Elder Scrolls teaser.
In June 2022, Todd Howard described Elder Scrolls 6 as being in "pre-production." So hunker down-it's going to be a wait. We know that Starfield, launching in 2023 after its delay, is going to be finished before Elder Scrolls 6.
It will probably be sometime this decade. What is The Elder Scrolls 6 release date?ĭon't hold your breath. When there’s information about our inevitable return to Tamriel, you’ll find it here. Regardless, we’ll be keeping this collection updated with recent rumours, interviews, and statements, to keep the Elder Scrolls excitement simmering. While you wait, at least Bethesda’s been kind enough to give us a dozen or so re-releases of Skyrim to temper the Tamriel wanderlust. Sounds like there’ll be plenty of planets to wander around in the meantime, though. With the space game taking up Bethesda’s development focus, it’s a safe bet that it’ll be a healthy wait before any Elder Scrolls reveals. We aren’t expecting to have any verified details about Elder Scrolls 6 at least until after the release of Starfield, Bethesda’s sprawling scifi RPG that’s due sometime in 2023.
