'Elder Scrolls 6' News: Bethesda Busy With Seven Games, Title Included?
Bethesda Game Studios is very busy at the moment, but not with "Elder Scrolls 6," which the company has emphasized is still a long way off.
The studio's director, Todd Howard, revealed to IGN that they are currently working on seven titles, two of which are "Fallout VR" and "Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim" for the Nintendo Switch.
The third one is a mobile game, which is expected to be as big as how "Fallout Shelter" has become (the game currently has 75 million players).
"So some of those things are obviously of different scales," Howard said in relation to the variation of the titles they are hard at work on at the moment.
"We're always doing a lot of things, and once we get good momentum on something, that's what we'll focus on," he went on to say.
As for the other two, one of which fans could only hope is "Elder Scrolls 6," the Bethesda executive described these projects as "different" and "bigger than anything we've done."
Despite this, Howard emphasized that Bethesda fans will feel at home in these titles as they are "still the kind of game people would associate with us," hinting that these titles are entirely new instead of installments from their most famous franchises such as "Elder Scrolls."
He said the same thing during an interview with Glixel, in which he gushed about the scale of these two unannounced games.
"We have two larger projects that are more classically the scale of what we do, but even bigger. We overlap the projects so we're working on them at the same time, but they're staggered," he teased.
"I can't talk a lot about them, but I can say that they're bigger than anything we've ever done. They're a bit different, but definitely in the wheelhouse that people are used to from us," he went on to say.
The abovementioned games make up five of the seven that Bethesda is busy with at the moment. Gamingbolt suggests that "Elder Scrolls 6" is the sixth title the studio has going on.
Bethesda made it very clear that it will be a long wait before the title arrives. In fact, the company is not planning to talk about the title until it is almost ready.
