Bethesda explains why they announced Elder Scrolls VI so early
The fans need to know what these guys are doing.
Bethesda announced Elder Scrolls VI last week but that's really where it all ended. We have no idea what the team is really planning. After all, we only got a logo and a (handy) backdrop.
To answer some of these questions, Pete Hines gave an in-depth interview for Fz.se. As he explained, the team wanted to let the players know what they are doing.
This is what he said: " A couple of years ago I talked to Todd [Howard] about clarifying with everybody that TES6 was not going to be our next game, and we had two other big games that we wanted to do first. So we had already put that out there several years ago, but we were very vague on what those other two titles were,' explained Hines.
'So it was just in conversations with him [and] folks on my team to say, look, why don't we consider putting out a little bit more of a roadmap for the studio that explains to folks, 'Here's what we're doing-yes, we're making this game called Starfield and here's what it is, and yes, we're going to make Elder Scrolls 6, but we have these other two games to develop and make first.' It's just so that folks have a better sense of where we are and where we're headed". Sounds good enough to me!
We will certainly keep an eye on the latest information regarding this game and we will keep you updated.
