But while you’d think Bethesda Softworks would struggle to replicate the same magic in The Elder Scrolls 6, you’d be wrong. According to a recent interview, Todd Howard casually mentioned how the studio already has the beginning of The Elder Scrolls 6 all planned out, saying: Unfortunately, Bethesda has a reputation for taking its sweet time with its games. So, while The Elder Scrolls 6 is certainly on the docket, we don’t think we’ll hear anything about it at least until after Starfield is out next year. If it’s any consolation, Howard said plenty of good things about Starfield in the same interview. If nothing else, it will be interesting to see what Starfield is all about, even if you’re not the biggest fan of space exploration games. Most likely, Bethesda will use Starfield to experiment with different techniques and features that may eventually make their way to the next Elder Scrolls game. With that said, it’s nice to know Howard is confident in Skyrim’s sequel. Who knows? A fresh perspective after working on Starfield might be exactly what Bethesda needs to make a worthy successor. In other news, the UK government might be aware of when The Elder Scrolls 6 will hit store shelves. Finally, Bethesda clarifies that it still hasn’t forgotten about Fallout 5 either.
