Bethesda Says Elder Scrolls 6 Is 'Progressing Really Well' as Most of the Studio Shifts to the Project

Bethesda offered reassurance without a date, emphasizing a quality‑first process built on long pre‑production with overlapping teams.

Overview

  • Todd Howard told Game Informer that development is progressing well and that the majority of Bethesda Game Studios is now focused on The Elder Scrolls 6.
  • Design director Emil Pagliarulo said the team will take as long as needed for polish and stability, citing recent big‑game delays as prudent examples.
  • Studio director Angela Browder described the project as an endless set of possibilities enabled by advances in hardware and tools, adding that it’s “gonna be dope.”
  • Howard reiterated Bethesda’s overlap model, noting long pre‑production and concurrent efforts, with sizable teams still supporting Fallout projects including 76.
  • No release window or new footage was provided, and recent coverage characterizes the remarks as a cautious check‑in following Howard’s note last month that the game remains a long way off.
