""It's progressing really well," Howard told Game Informer. "The majority of the studio's on [Elder Scrolls 6]. but I'll say this: We always overlap. So, we're very used to overlapping development. And we have long pre-productions on things so that we feel good about them. And it's a process. We all wish it went a little bit faster--or a lot faster--but it's a process that we want to get right.""
"Although the initial announcement came years ago, it's possible or even likely that development didn't ramp up on The Elder Scrolls until after Starfield was released in 2023. Fans are so desperate for any kind of update that they're reading things in the Skyrim Switch 2 announcement trailer as if they're hidden hints about an Elder Scrolls 6 release window. As recently as last month, Howard said that The Elder Scrolls 6 is "still a long way off" and he expressed regret for announcing the sequel when he did."
Most of Bethesda's development team is working on The Elder Scrolls 6 and the project is progressing well. Development follows overlapping workflows and long pre-production phases to ensure quality, which slows visible progress. Development likely ramped up after Starfield's 2023 release, leaving the project effectively long-term. Fans are intensely searching for release signals, sometimes reading unrelated trailers as hints. The project remains a long way from release, and the early announcement is viewed as premature. Bethesda ran a Make-A-Wish charity auction to design a creature for the game. A television adaptation is possible but will be delayed rather than rushed.
