Summary

• An insider indicates that there may be a chance for The Elder Scrolls 6 to make a surprise appearance at the Xbox Games Showcase on June 8.
• Updates on the game’s development have been sparse since 2018.

An insider recently suggested that The Elder Scrolls 6 could potentially be featured at the upcoming Xbox Games Showcase scheduled for June 8. A reveal at this event would certainly grab attention.

It has been nearly seven years since the game’s initial announcement in 2018, which only included a modest cinematic trailer. At that time, no specifics were provided about the game’s location or its development stage, indicating it was still very early in the process. Since then, Bethesda has successfully released a remaster of The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion and introduced an entirely new title, Starfield. However, news regarding The Elder Scrolls 6 has been limited to occasional confirmations that it remains in development, with no trailers or extensive updates offered since 2018.

In a recent episode of the Xbox Two podcast, insider and journalist Jez Corden speculated about The Elder Scrolls 6 making an appearance during the showcase, labeling it a remote possibility. He mentioned, “Elder Scrolls 6 is kind of a ‘pie in the sky’ kind of thing but you never know man, you never know… I wanted to predict this [appearance] because I’ve started hearing rumors about the game, which might indicate that more people at Microsoft are aware of it. This suggests to me that there’s possibly an internal trailer circulating.”

While Corden acknowledges that it’s not unusual for Microsoft to show games internally without displaying them publicly, the anticipation surrounding The Elder Scrolls 6 continues to grow among fans. Even if a reveal isn’t likely, it remains one of the most anticipated role-playing games today, and any development updates could generate considerable excitement.

Whenever The Elder Scrolls 6 does arrive, it is expected to be a monumental success. The recent popularity of Oblivion Remastered has proven that the Elder Scrolls franchise is stronger than ever, even after a long absence of close to 14 years without a mainline release. For now, fans must be patient until Bethesda officially discloses more information, which they hope will come sooner rather than later.
