It may have been seven years since Bethesda Game Studios announced *The Elder Scrolls 6*, but fans shouldn’t expect to see it any time soon. According to Executive Producer Todd Howard, the game is still “a long way off,” although it has now become Bethesda’s primary focus.
Howard shared these insights during a conversation with GQ, reflecting on a retrospective about *Fallout 4* when *The Elder Scrolls 6* inevitably came up. “I’m preaching patience,” he said, emphasizing that the game is still far from release. “I don’t want fans to feel anxious.”
He went on to confirm that *The Elder Scrolls 6* is being worked on daily at Bethesda Game Studios. In fact, an internal playtest was conducted just the day before the interview.
Howard also discussed what the eventual release of *The Elder Scrolls 6* might look like. “I like to just announce stuff and release it. My perfect version—and I’m not saying this is going to happen—is that it’s going to be a while and then, one day, the game will just appear.”
For fans eager to dive back into Tamriel, it seems patience will remain key for the foreseeable future. Bethesda is hard at work, but it looks like the wait for *The Elder Scrolls 6* continues.
