That might be small consolation to TES fans, but it's not so bad when you consider Dishonored studio Arkane is developing the former, and Resident Evil creator Shinji Mikami is working on the latter. In the immediate future, Bethesda is more likely to share new information about games like Deathloop and Ghostwire: Tokyo. In other words, it's probably a safe bet we won't hear anything about either Starfield or TES6 as Microsoft and Sony prepare to launch their next-generation consoles. An extremely brief teaser was shown during the Sunday. Hines said the company hopes to share more details about the sci-fi game ' someday.' The Elder Scrolls VI is officially in development, Todd Howard announced at Bethesdas E3 2018 press conference. Like TES6, we don't know much about the title other than the fact it's Bethesda Game Studios' first new franchise in 25 years. Starfield, if you need a refresher, is the other game Bethesda teased at its E3 2018 showcase. '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,' he said. Prompted by a fan over the weekend, Bethesda senior vice president of marketing and communications Pete Hines said the company won't have anything substantial to say about The Elder Scrolls 6 for a couple more years. In a blog post discussing Microsoft’s $7.5 billion acquisition of Bethesda in March, Howard said the sci-fi RPG would feature “all new technologies” that will eventually power The Elder Scrolls 6 too.Almost two years after it announced the game, you might think Bethesda is ready to share more information about its latest mainline Elder Scrolls project. Howard previously said Starfield will feature Bethesda’s biggest engine overhaul since 2006’s Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. So if you’re coming at me for details now and not years from now, I’m failing to properly manage your expectations.” Hines tweeted: “It’s after Starfield, which you pretty much know nothing about. In May 2020, Bethesda’s SVP of global marketing, Pete Hines, suggested that fans were unlikely to hear about The Elder Scrolls 6 until work on Starfield was completed. At the end of Bethesdas E3 2018 showcase, Todd Howard talked about whats in store for the future, revealing two new titles that are currently in the work. “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 on to Creation Engine 2 that that game is going to require.”

Elder Scrolls 6 will use Creation Engine 2, which is currently being used for Starfield The vast majority of our development work is on Starfield right now but everybody works on everything so the projects kind of intertwine. “The technology, Creation Engine 2, is sort of built for both ,” he said.

Howard, who oversees development of the long-running RPG series and is directing Starfield, recently told The Telegraph that the next Elder Scrolls game will benefit from the development work the studio’s currently doing on the sci-fi title, which is scheduled to release in November 2022 for platforms which support Xbox Game Pass.

However, another Bethesda title, Starfield, was also announced at E3 2018 and is ahead of the fantasy game in the company’s release pipeline.
