Bethesda Game Studios president of marketing Pete Hines has been having a continuous back and forth with fans ever since the reveal of The Elder Scrolls VI.
The Elder Scrolls 6 Won’t Be Coming Soon
As we get closer to the month (or this year, months) of gaming events, the rumours and questions start to go into overdrive. One highly anticipated title that was debuted during E3 two years ago, has cropped up again. The first teaser forThe Elder Scrolls 6was revealed atE3 2018, a couple of years ago now and since then details for the title have been thin. That hasn’t stopped fans from trying to get more information about the project from Bethesda Game Studios president of marketing Pete Hines.
The update so far is not what we’d hoped, as Hines replied to a Twitter user about further details for ES6, he responded “if you’re coming at me for details now and not years from now, I’m failing to properly manage your expectations.” He also went to explain that The Elder Scrolls 6 is not the next Bethesda title, asStarfielda new IP will be releasing before. This has been known since it was announced officially during E3 2018.
It’s after Starfield, which you pretty much know nothing about. So if you’re coming at me for details now and not years from now, I’m failing to properly manage your expectations.

But Bethesda has also been focusing on their other current titles includingFallout 76: Wastelanders, Doom: Eternal and Wolfenstein: Youngblood. With these already released, Bethesda could be ready to share more about their upcoming title Starfield. Hines was also questioned about when we’d see a deep-dive about the new sci-fi IP, in which he replied “someday”, which doesn’t really give a determined window.

Starfieldhas been a longtime in the making, Pete Hines has been wanting to make this kind of game since the 90’s, however the kind of technology didn’t exist back then. Learning this means Starfield has been high up on the Bethesda list for quite some time now and will be a big project for them. It was explained at E3 that onceFallout 76was released, a lot of those who worked on the project in Maryland and Montreal will move onto Starfield. With Fallout 76 released, this would mean their focus would shift to Starfield.
This only supports that ES6 will yet again not be present during June’s announcements. Maybe there is still hope for something Starfield related? We will keep you updated with the latest news during the next big gaming eventSummer Game Festwhich starts on May 12 at 12:00PM ET.
