Summary
With December 2023 givingGrand Theft Autofans a small taste of whatGTA 6will be like through a trailer also including a release window of 2025, it’s only natural that players ofThe Elder Scrollstitles want to see a little something of the next big, highly-anticipated installment of the series.The Elder Scrolls 6was revealed all the way back in 2018with a very short teaser trailer that would leave everyone hanging for a long time, as no official news came about Bethesda’s RPG since that day. There has been some news regardingThe Elder Scrolls 6in recent years, but they were all tied to other big Xbox releases, such as the nextFable. Things can change in 2024, and a newTES 6trailer may be on the way.
It’s worth noting thatStarfieldis still in the works at Bethesda in the form of updates every six weeks and a DLC called Shattered Space, and only recently didThe Elder Scrolls 6go into early development. What this means is that, even if there are updates for fans to check in 2024, the game will most likely be closer to 2030 in terms of release than anything else.
What Fans Can Expect From Bethesda’s TES 6 in 2024
Why A The Elder Scrolls 6 Trailer or News Update is Likely to Happen in 2024
One of the big reasons whyThe Elder Scrolls 6might get a new trailer sooner rather than later is that the original is rapidly approaching its sixth anniversary in June. Although Bethesda has not confirmed anything for 2024, it would make sense for the developer to at least show something for its most anticipated title now. Another option would be for Bethesda to share something aboutTES 6- be it some news regarding its development, a hype-inducing video of developers talking about the game, or even some kind of official statement.
There is another reason why givingThe Elder Scrolls 6a bit of time in the limelight in 2024 would be a good choice, and that’s becauseStarfielddidn’t exactly land with overwhelmingly positive reviews, but rather it wasn’t even nominated as a Game of the Year candidate at The Game Awards.TES 6is not going to beStarfieldas much asStarfieldis not going to be anotherSkyrim, and it’s important for Bethesda to show it’s learning lessons from its recent title and applying them to its next big project. Lastly, it can be somewhat problematic for games to go radio-silent for too long, and Bethesda has a chance to do something about it.
Why A The Elder Scrolls 6 Trailer is Unlikely to Happen in 2024
On the other hand, there are also reasons why players should expect very little fromThe Elder Scrolls 6in 2024 if they can expect anything at all. As much as it would make sense to share something aboutTES 6afterStarfield’s reception, one could argue that it would be even wiser not to do that in order not to hinder a possible resurgence of the game when Shattered Space does launch or the various 6-week updates pop up. After all, there is a chance that what happened withCyberpunk 2077could happen again forStarfield, although the games and their starting points are very different.
What is probably the biggest reasonThe Elder Scrolls 6could yet again be a no-show in 2024 is that Bethesda’s ownTodd Howard regrets revealingTES 6so early. While the counterargument would be that then the best course of action is to reveal something about the game, it’s equally likely (if not more probable) that 2024 will be a quiet year for the beloved fantasy RPG franchise. In fact, Bethesda might be keeping its cards even closer to its chest now, and a 2024 trailer forThe Elder Scrolls 6could be once more too early compared to when the game is supposedly coming out.
