Elder Scrolls 6 Release Date
Ah! Almost every gamer worldwide is expecting a Release Date for Elder Scrolls VI but unfortunately, there is no official Release Date for Elder Scrolls VI and we firmly believe that we would not be receiving any updates for sometime soon as Bethesda is mainly focusing on Starfield at the moment.
Even the Xbox CEO “Phil Spencer” indicated that the game won’t be coming out anytime soon.
However, according to some insiders Elder Scrolls VI will likely be released in 2026, and surely that will be a long wait, but hey we’ve waited for 5 years, and waiting a couple more years will not harm as Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is still one of the most played games to this day and there are tons of great mods available for Skyrim as well. We’re likely going to get some updates regarding the game after the release of Starfield.
We will actively provide you with any new information regarding the release date of Elder Scrolls VI as soon as we get our hands on it so all you guys need to do is chill out and stay tuned to our page.
This was it for the release date and now let us break down the Announcement Teaser that the developers released back in 2018.
Teaser for Elder Scrolls VI
So Bethesda Studios shocked the whole Elder Scrolls community after showcasing the announcement teaser for Elder Scrolls VI back in 2018 and that was it. Like seriously they have not released any in-game footage yet and it has been over 5 years.
Seems like Bethesda wants to keep their fans out in the dark. The Teaser starts with the sound of drums and then we are shown a terrain that many gamers believe could most likely be Hammerfell or High Rock. The Teaser then ends and it is the only footage we have received.
We will provide you guys with the Teaser of Elder Scrolls 6 down below. Do let us know what you guys think about it down below.
If you have been keeping up with the news then you must have already seen this announcement teaser back in 2018 and must have got excited as I was too.
We hope that the developers release the game soon and gamers can get their hands on it.
Will Elder Scrolls VI be a multi-platform game?
Bethesda Studios have confirmed that they will be using the same engine (Creation Engine 2) to develop both Starfield and Elder Scrolls VI and as per our research, it looks like Elder Scrolls VI will be released exclusively on PC and Xbox consoles.
PlayStation gamers might get disappointed however, Todd Howard (Game Director) has stated “It would be hard to imagine not bringing the game to multiple platforms” and even the CFO of Xbox (Tim Stuart) stated that they don’t have any intentions of taking out all Bethesda’s content from Sony or Nintendo.
So there’s still hope for the PlayStation Gamers out there who are eagerly waiting for Elder Scrolls VI.
We believe that Elder Scrolls VI should be a multi-platform game as there are tons of Elder Scrolls fans out there who own a PlayStation console. It would only be a profit for Bethesda Studios if Elder Scrolls VI comes out as a multi-platform title.
PS5 and Xbox Series X/S are two perfectly capable gaming consoles that could be able the game flawlessly at a high refresh rate.
As for PS4 and Xbox One, we don’t think that the developers would be released the game on them as they will be over a decade old by the time Elder Scroll 6 releases.
We will update you as soon as we get our hands on new valuable information regarding the platforms on which Elder Scrolls VI will be released.
Will Elder Scrolls VI be set in Hammerfell?
So tons of Elder Scrolls fans believe that the sixth game will be set in Hammerfell and I’ll tell you why. On December 31, 2020, on New Year’s Eve, Bethesda Studios posted a New Year message on their Twitter account it included a Skyrim map and they stated “Transcribe the past and map the future”.
Fans quickly noticed that one of the candles on the map was placed at a location beyond the borders of Skyrim and it was labeled as Hamerfell.
Well, these are all speculations as we do not have any concrete information about where Elder Scrolls VI will be set.
We will surely get more updates from the developers as the release date gets closer. We will provide you guys with Bethesda’s tweet down below.
Transcribe the past and map the future. ????
