Bethesda boss Todd Howard has given a new update on The Elder Scrolls 6, and the big takeaway is that while the game is playable already, it’s not releasing anytime soon.
Speaking to GQ, Howard said the highly anticipated RPG is “still a long way off.” Howard is directing the game, and he told fans that they should get comfortable because it’s going to be a while. “I’m preaching patience,” he said. “I don’t want fans to feel anxious.”
Howard said The Elder Scrolls 6 is “the everyday thing” as it relates to what he spends his time and attention on these days at the studio.

It’s always exciting to hear updates about The Elder Scrolls 6! While it’s a bit disappointing to learn it’s still a long way off, anticipation can make the eventual release even more rewarding. Looking forward to seeing what Bethesda has in store!
I completely understand the disappointment, but it’s good to remember that the longer development time often leads to a more polished game. With Bethesda’s track record, it seems like they want to make sure they deliver something truly special for fans!
