The Elder Scrolls 6 Is Still In The Design Phase

The Elder Scrolls franchise is one of the more beloved RPGs of all time, so it is understandable that many are eagerly anticipating the Elder Scrolls 6 and what it could bring to the table. However, it seems that we probably still have quite a bit of waiting to do, according to Bethesda’s Todd Howard.

Speaking to The Telegraph in an interview, Howard revealed that the game is still very much in the design phase, meaning that it could be a while before we get to hear more about it or see more footage of the game.

According to Howard, “It’s good to think of The Elder Scrolls 6 as still being in a design [phase]… 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.”

To be fair, Bethesda did previously caution that the game is still very far from being released. The reason the company acknowledged its existence and put out a short teaser is to ensure that fans weren’t disappointed, so while it could still be years before its release, at least we know where the game currently stands.
