As another user already said, this remaster is being done by an outside studio, so it shouldn’t be significantly affecting any ongoing work at Bethesda.
While Todd Howard is full of shit half the time, I do believe him when he talks about their development roadmap. When Elder Scrolls 6 was announced, it was under the disclaimer that it was not an active project for the team at the time, and would not enter full production until Starfield was done. Starfield released in fall of 2023, so Elder Scrolls 6 should have been in full development for about a year and a half now.

They literally have a teaser trailer for ES6 they officially launched years ago.

Right. Yet there’s zero timeline for release, and I’d like a timeline for release.

Todd Howard thinks he can. 🤷🏻♂️

My copium is maybe we get a little update with this announcement. Not thinking it likely, but this whole Oblivion shadowdrop move would tie in well with a statement that ES6 is still coming and this is their way of tiding people over until then.

Yeah, that’s what I’m hoping for. I don’t need gameplay or anything, I just want to know more-or-less what the status is. As in, are we likely to see a release in the next couple years? Or is this a 5-years out situation?
