In a recent statement by Bethesda, it has been officially confirmed that The Elder Scrolls 6 is currently in development. Celebrating the 30th anniversary of the beloved series, Bethesda expressed their joy and excitement at returning to Tamriel and playing early builds of the game.

It comes as no surprise that The Elder Scrolls 6 is underway, as Bethesda first announced the game six years ago with a CGI teaser trailer at E3 2018. However, the developers had other projects, such as last year's sci-fi RPG Starfield, to focus on before diving deeper into the next installment of the iconic fantasy franchise.

Addressing the early announcement, Bruce Nesmith, the lead designer of Skyrim, revealed that Bethesda felt the need to confirm The Elder Scrolls 6 due to the overwhelming anticipation from eager fans. Nesmith mentioned that while the game will introduce new ideas, traces of Skyrim's magic system and the leveling system will likely remain intact.

With the highly anticipated release of Starfield now behind them, Bethesda's attention turns towards The Elder Scrolls 6 as their next major RPG. However, fans will have to exercise patience as the wait for more information on the game continues. Todd Howard, the director and executive producer at Bethesda, reflected on the early announcement and indicated that he might have taken a more casual approach if given the chance.

The Elder Scrolls series has been a beloved part of gaming for three decades, and Bethesda's dedication to delivering immersive and expansive worlds has captivated players worldwide. As the studio commemorates this milestone, fans eagerly await the release of The Elder Scrolls 6 as another thrilling adventure into the depths of Tamriel.

In addition to the news about The Elder Scrolls 6, Bethesda has also confirmed the development of Fallout 5. However, fans will have to exercise patience once again, as the release of Fallout 5 is planned to come after The Elder Scrolls 6.

As the development of The Elder Scrolls 6 continues, fans can anticipate a game that combines the familiar elements of the franchise with new and innovative ideas. For now, lovers of The Elder Scrolls series can bask in the celebration of its 30-year legacy, knowing that the next chapter in the epic saga is on its way.
