Elder Scrolls VI Won’t Be Out Until at Least 2026, According to Documents

Starfield’s release has made a lot of waves across the gaming industry. Still, some Bethesda fans can’t help but wonder about the upcoming release of The Elder Scrolls VI, the game that was announced at the same time as Starfield. Unfortunately, some fans might have to wait a bit longer as it turns out that recent documentation related to the game has revealed that the game won’t be out for a few more years.

New documents regarding Microsoft’s approach following key acquisitions since 2018 (Discovered by The Sixth Axis) have revealed that The Elder Scrolls VI is expected to be released by 2026 or later. Another tidbit of information worth highlighting is that the game will not feature a multiplayer component or have any release on PlayStation consoles.

Another document from the FTC case with Microsoft has additional confirmation showing that the game has no plans to be released on PlayStation. This was highlighted by Stephen Totilo from Axios.

Unfortunately, updates regarding Elder Scrolls VI will remain sparse for the following year as Microsoft and Bethesda continue working on the project. Still, at least this documentation provides a somewhat accurate window about when the game is expected to be released and when it will once again return to the news cycle with more prominence.
