Elder Scrolls VI - Everything We Know So Far

Elder Scrolls VI has had a lot of updates and leaks since it's announcement in 2018. I have gathered everything we know so far about the Elder Scrolls 6 and will present it in today's video. Including: Elder Scrolls VI as an Xbox exclusive, Elder Scrolls VI release date, Elder Scrolls VI location, Elder Scrolls VI Todd Howard statements, Elder Scrolls VI Creation Engine 2 and more.

The Elder Scrolls VI (working title) is an upcoming action role-playing video game developed by Bethesda Game Studios and published by Bethesda Softworks. It will be the sixth main installment in The Elder Scrolls series, following 2011's The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. The game is scheduled to be released for Windows and Xbox consoles.

The project is led by game director Todd Howard, reprising his duties from previous games in the series, as well as other games developed by Bethesda Game Studios. The Elder Scrolls VI will be the second game developed on the studio's in-house engine, Creation Engine 2, following Starfield (2023). The game entered pre-production by 2018, formally being announced during Bethesda's Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) 2018 conference. The game entered active production in 2023 following Starfield's completion and launch.

Fans will create the entire planet of Nirn through Skyrim mods before ES:VI comes out.

I remember watching videos like this 10 years ago thinking “its gotta be out by 2018 at the latest right?” Lol

The main character in the next Elder Scrolls game will be Maiq the Liar.

What I hope for ES6
1- 16 times the detail
2- take out all the npcs, make it multiplayer. Other players ARE the npcs
3- live service
4- lower the frame rate to about 25-30 fps
5- please keep some of the bugs and glitches from previous Bethesda games to keep its charm
6- I only want the game to be about 75% finished upon release date so the modders can finish the game for Bethesda at a later date
7- give me a voiced protagonist with less dialogue options and more illusions of choice rather than actual decision making
8- let me pay more money for a premium edition so I can play 2 days earlier
9- take no responsibility for any issues the game has and just blame the player base
10- instead of pc and council release just give me a mobile game

- someone at Bethesda probably

"You're awake! You took an arrow in the knee. We can still use you as a guard. Tell your story. Let none forget. Here's a sweet roll. Some guy said I lost it but I was saving it for someone who deserved it.

It would be nice if Todd could bring over some of the writers from ZOS and Obsidian. I feel like they do a better job writing these kinds of games than Bethesda.

[TheBHAitken]

What we know: (1) Most of the senior staff have already left and have no interest in the project. (2) The ones who remain are Todd Howard which refused to do any advancement on any aspect of the engine and the Head writer who... wrote Starfield... nuf said. (3) Microsoft refuses to get involved which means no new advancements. So, personally, I'm not expecting a release worth mentioning.

Omg I'll be in my mid 40s before this comes out. My old bones are creaking in disappointment 😭

[oliverboisen]

I think my last hope is that Bethesda go back to handcrafting everything, like they're known for. I understand why they went down the procedual generation route with Starfield, but to me, the whole magic of Bethesda game's is in the organicness of exploration. Like entering a tomb, and there'd be a corpse with an axe in his back, and a wriiten note. You'd then pick up that note and it would give you a quest further into a dungeon. Or reading a book about Red Eagle you found randomly, and then actually visiting his tomb and fighting him. That to me is what Bethesda's all about.

After fallout 76 and starfield I almost dont want them to release ES VI... I cant imagine a world in which this game comes out and its not absolutely trash

[zebatov]

I remember some guy went on a ten-thousand-word rant about how he knew GTA4 was going to take place in London before it came out, citing all kinds of information.

I don’t pay much attention to hearsay or rumours this “far” into development.

[swish]

The Elder Scrolls used to be my favorite game series and overall game universe since Morrowind. Unfortunately, I've lost all faith in Bethesda to provide a game worth playing. I'm much mote excited for Avowed from Obsidian, which will not only arrive sooner but most probably be a whole lot better than whatever Bethesda jumbles together in ES6

[arnoldis]

I was 23 when Skyrim came out. I'll be pushing forty when it's successor comes out. Dang.

[Triberzis]

Clear and informative. Great editing. Great video! your videos deserve more views

[twistedshapeshifter]

Damn, Imma be 30 when the game comes out 😭Still remember watching the trailer 6 years ago, sucks they didn't make this instead of starfield.

[DaedaliusRE]

I don't know I'm happy to hear that it's only been in development for 6 months now. Maybe that way Bethesda can learn from the utter mess that is Starfield and maybe - for a change - NOT repeat their mistakes. I know that's hell of a lot of copium but a boy can dream.

[ricepaddymaddie]

I would love for the next game to take place in High Rock because as someone who plays a Breton I just want to see our homeland!

[KrazzyKlown]

I know it wont happen, but I really hope we get Valenwood.

[Altaierror]

I was 6 when Skyrim came out and to this day it’s my favorite game. By the time Elder Scrolls 6 comes out, I’ll legally be able to drink, that’s insane

[richardspillers]

Im more excited for skywind and skyblivion than anything Bethesda is working.
