Xbox's Phil Spencer has confirmed that The Elder Scrolls 6 is still "many years away", and that Microsoft has yet to decide whether it will launch on PS5.
While I would of course love a new ES game, I’m actually ok without the next ES game coming out anytime soon. As long as Starfield doesn’t disappoint, I think it will be good that the team has gotten to work on what clearly seems to be a bit of a passion project and got to go about creating a new world, lore, etc. Considering they have really only been working on Elder Scrolls / Fallout games since the early 00’s, I’m sure getting to branch out and make something new must have been a lot of fun. Just hoping it’s reflected in the finished project, otherwise, I think I’ll be more worried about the next Elder Scrolls than excited.

2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy “anti-woke” energy, you probably shouldn’t be posting it here.
3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.
