While the recent Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim on Nintendo Switch is still an enjoyable title for the fans of the series, rumors and news about The Elder Scrolls 6 release date and features have emerged on the Internet since Bethesda closed its presentation at E3 2018 with a teaser for The Elder Scrolls 6. Here’s everything you must know about The Elder Scrolls 6.
The Elder Scrolls 6 Release Date
The last installment in the series, Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim, launched in 2011 on PlayStation 3, Windows, and Xbox 360. In 2016, the title became available on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, while in November 2017 Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim rolled out for Nintendo Switch.
Therefore, we’re ready for the next tile in the series, The Elder Scrolls 6. Bethesda announced during the E3 2018 that it’s working on the next game in the franchise, and, even though the games studio presented a The Elder Scrolls 6 trailer during the before-mentioned fair, the company did not reveal when the game would launch. Bethesda only said that The Elder Scrolls 6 would come after Starfield.
Accordingly, we know nothing about The Elder Scrolls 6 release date, but since Starfield would launch for the next-gen consoles, we expect The Elder Scrolls 6 to come out after 2020.
The Elder Scrolls 6 Rumors, News, And Everything Else
Another topic of debate besides The Elder Scrolls 6 release date is where would the next title in the series take place. We know already that each Elder Scrolls game takes place in a different region of the Tamriel empire, the in-game world. The first titles in the series covered Hammerfell, High Rock, Island of Vvardenfell, Cyrodiil, and Skyrim.
So, what’s left for The Elder Scroll 6? Valenwood, Elsweyr and Black Marsh (Argonia) are unexplored regions in Elder Scrolls franchise, so The Elder Scrolls 6 might take place in any of them. And that because the other two areas, Battlespire and Regard, are not part of the main series of Elder Scrolls games.
According to some rumors, The Elder Scrolls 6 would take place in Black Marsh, or Argonia, but no reliable sources indicate to that.
