While fans of The Elder Scrolls are impatiently waiting for the release of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion - Remaster, we have learned that the sixth installment in the saga has a release window, revealed by a well-known insider.
The Elder Scrolls 6: Impatience is building
In many ways, fantasy is the king of video games. To be convinced, just look at the Game Awards' list of winners for the title Game Of The Year. Since 2014, five fantasy games have won the GOTY title, almost half of the awards. While Hollywood studios have been battling since the end of Game of Thrones to get the new series to achieve similar success to the famous HBO show, video game fans will also witness a duel between two highly anticipated games. These are The Witcher IV from CD Projekt Red and The Elder Scrolls VI from Bethesda.
Announced seven years ago at E3 2018, The Elder Scrolls VI has been in active development since the release of Starfield in 2023. Fourteen years after the phenomenal triumph of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, fans of the license are waiting for the slightest information concerning the new opus of the saga, which still remains very mysterious. Nevertheless, the project could become more precise in the weeks and months to come. coming.
Indeed, for many observers, the upcoming release of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remaster, several images of which have recently leaked, would allow Bethesda to remind its fans of the existence of the license, in order to prepare for the arrival of The Elder Scrolls VI. (A strategy Nintendo already used for The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, whose announcement was prepared with The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword HD on Nintendo Switch, in 2021.)
Colt Eastwood, an Xbox news insider followed by 200,000 people on YouTube, claims that The Elder Scrolls VIwill be released in 2028 on Xbox Series X/S. The game could therefore be released a few months after The Witcher IV, which is also highly anticipated. Obviously, this announcement should be taken with a grain of salt while awaiting official confirmation from Bethesda and Microsoft. However, this release window resonates with Xbox's claims that TES VI would require at least five years of active development. The June 8, 2025 release date and the next Game Awards ceremony, which will be held next December, could be two opportunities for Bethesda to finally reveal the first teaser for The Elder Scrolls VI.
