Bethesda announces The Elder Scrolls 6 during its E3 2018 press conference. The game has been whispered about by fans but this Elder Scrolls 6 trailer is the very first time that Bethesda has shown off anything related to the game.

The Elder Scrolls 6 announcement follows other major reveals including the announcement of Gears of War 5 and the re-reveal of Cyberpunk 2077.
The Elder Scrolls 6 Release Date, Platforms Teased
- Although many details about the game have not been clarified yet, we are sure that The Elder Scrolls 6 is being officially developed. The game was announced to the players by the end of E3 2018. You can watch the The Elder Scrolls IV trailer below, which caused great excitement in the hall.
- Fans should be excited that Bethesda is proposing a 10-year lifespan for Elder Scrolls VI, but also a little wary of the modern connotation of that proposal.After all, 'longevity' in today's.

At E3 2018, Bethesda revealed The Elder Scrolls 6 with a brief teaser trailer. The trailer is a sweeping look at a piece of mountainous landscape that is covered in a thick layer of fog. As the camera continues to move forward, viewers can catch a glimpse of what appears to be an ocean on the horizon, along with a castle and some more peaks. In the background, you can hear a soaring score that will be instantly familiar to The Elder Scrolls fans and people who have played Skyrim.
Details about the game are few and far between but Bethesda's Todd Howard did touch briefly on when we can expect The Elder Scrolls 6 release date. The game will be released after Starfield, the single-player space game also announced during its E3 2018 press conference.
Starfield is described as a 'next-gen' game meaning that it may release on PlayStation 5 or Xbox Two (or whatever the consoles after the PS4 and Xbox One may be called) which are at least two years away. Ergo, The Elder Scrolls 6 release date is unlikely to be before 2021 as Bethesda won't want its two major games to compete.
There is even less to go on when it comes to The Elder Scrolls 6 gameplay. Series' staples include bashing mystical enemies, using magic, exploring a vast and beautiful open-world so fans can expect those to return. But what else may be included? The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim included romance (including same-sex romance) and Fallout 4 included same-sex romances too so Elder Scrolls fans will be hoping for that to be included in The Elder Scrolls 6 too.
Bethesda is holding its cards to its chest regarding the new game at the moment and most of its focus is on Fallout 76 for now. But fans are chomping at the bit for new information so hopefully, The Elder Scrolls 6 developer will indulge those fans sooner, rather than later.

Bethesda's conference at E3 2018 was packed full of surprises, including the announcement of The Elder Scrolls VI. The announcement was very brief – with just a short teaser video – and details about the project remain scarce, but some key bits of information are out there if you know where to look.
A lot of what we thought we knew about Elder Scrolls 6 has been thrown up in the air by Microsoft's acquisition of Bethesda however, leaving questions about how it will affect when the game comes out – and crucially, if it will still come to a PlayStation.
When will The Elder Scrolls VI be released?
While the announcement came at E3 back in June 2018, we sadly won't be seeing the next Elder Scrolls game for a long time yet.
Bethesda has said that its newest IP, Starfield, will be released before we see Elder Scrolls 6, and Starfield is still early in production. The general feeling is that we won't be seeing TES VI until 2023 at the very earliest.
On the upside, we will almost certainly be seeing the game on a new engine in that time, so we can hope that the combat will grow to match the quality of the world building and storytelling.
Make no mistake, though: we're overdue a major Elder Scrolls update. The gap between Oblivion (March 2006) and Skyrim (November 2011) was five and a half years, and we're now nine years on from that.
What consoles will Elder Scrolls 6 come out on?
Not long ago the smart money would have been on Elder Scrolls 6 releasing on Xbox Series X, PlayStation 5, and PC.
That's all changed now however, as Microsoft bought Bethesda and its affiliated development studios in a shock deal worth $7.5 billion.
So far the company has stayed quiet on what that means for future game releases. And while it's likely that the next few big Bethesda releases will still launch on PlayStation, we'd be very surprised if that holds by the time Elder Scrolls is out, meaning it's likely to only come out on PC and Xbox.

What will The Elder Scrolls VI be called?
New Elder Scrolls Game
While The Elder Scrolls VI has been revealed, we don't yet know the full name of the upcoming game. Not officially, anyway – but a leak suggests that it may be called The Elder Scrolls VI: Redfall.
Elder Scrolls 6 Preview
The leak, first picked up by Newsweek, details a patent for a 'computer game software for use with computers and video game consoles' filed by Bethesda's parent company ZeniMax Media that includes the name Redfall. That's not a certainty, by any means: companies often trademark a wide variety of names and ideas for their IP in order to cover themselves in the future or even to mislead rivals. But it's worth noting that previous Bethesda names have been correctly deduced in exactly this way.
Bethesda trademarked the name Skyrim well before it was officially announced, and keen eyes spotted the trademark created for Starfield prior to the E3 2018 reveal. In other words, this is as close to an official name as we're going to get for a while.
Where will The Elder Scrolls VI be set?
We only have a very short trailer to gather details from but the coastline and rocky, broken terrain suggest High Rock or Hammerfell, regions close to Skyrim within the Elder Scrolls world. Of the two, we're leaning slightly toward Hammerfell because it's home to the Redguards, which could tie in with the name Redfall. And the amount of desert in that territory could make for a markedly different experience to the frost and snow of Skyrim.
Both High Rock and Hammerfell have been visited before in this series, however, which could make them less appealing as a setting. Here are the nine provinces in the continent of Tamriel, which is where the games are set. (They are all part of 1994's Elder Scrolls Arena, but that didn't allow for much exploration.)
- Black Marsh
- Cyrodiil (TES IV: Oblivion)
- Elsweyr
- Hammerfell (TES II: Daggerfall)
- High Rock (TES II: Daggerfall)
- Morrowind (TES III: Morrowind)
- Skyrim (TES V: Skyrim)
- Summerset Isles
- Valenwood
On that basis it might be more likely that Bethesda will introduce us to somewhere new. Our vote would go to Valenwood and Elsweyr, sharing a border down in the south of Tamriel, and which promise interest both geographical (arid desert and sub-tropical forests) and cultural (choose between the feline Khajiit, the Bosmer – basically wood elves – and the ape creatures known as the Imga).
We'll keep you updated with more information as it becomes available, but I'm afraid you're going to have to wait for a while before you get a chance to play the next instalment in the Elder Scrolls series.
