Todd Howard Explains Why Bethesda Avoids Early Reveals, But The Elder Scrolls 6 Doesn’t Count

At this point, it is more than a meme that The Elder Scrolls 6 was announced so long ago and yet it’s still not in the hands of its expectant fans. Announced in June 2018, the highly anticipated next entry to the Elder Scrolls series has now been lapped by Fallout 76, Starfield, and multiple updates and expansions to both of those titles, all while it remains in the background, still without so much as a broad release window. However, announcing major projects as early as Bethesda revealed The Elder Scrolls 6 isn’t actually what the studio prefers, especially now that it has had some time to test the waters of modern connection, where the internet and social media are now universal languages.
