The Elder Scrolls 6 exists and is playable, according to Xbox CEO who’s seen it: ‘Incredible’

Wait 5 sec.

Buckle up, gamers. We have our second Elder Scrolls 6 update in as many months. Kind of. The most recent update from TES6 came last month when Bethesda said it’s “where we planned to be” in the game’s development despite announcing it a whole eight years ago. And now, Xbox CEO Asha Sharma has come with another. Image via Bethesda “Live playthrough of The Elder Scrolls VI: ***** this morning,” she teased on Twitter/X with eight asterisks, which could mean absolutely nothing. “The scale and grandeur are incredible. The story is even greater.” Well, there you have it. It’s good to know that the game is actually able to be played and shown off after all this time. Are you excited yet, Bethesda fans? Or are you still on Skyrim 15 years later? Look, I want to get excited about TES6, but the fact is that it was announced way too soon and the fact that we as players still haven’t seen even a glimpse of it is kind of shocking to really sit down and think about. When can we realistically expect it? 2029? 2030? Even further out? Bethesda’s most recent project Starfield was kind of cool, but ultimately not for me. A new Fallout would be really awesome, so it’s good to know that that’s also being worked on (in multiple new iterations). But reports of delays, crunch, and “shattered morale” at the studio earlier this year is plenty reason enough to be concerned. And that’s without even factoring in a number of layoffs that hit Bethesda and multiple other Xbox studios last month as part of Sharma’s “reset.” Any actual update on the game is nice, but today’s words from Sharma will have to ring hollow for now until we can see the game for ourselves. It’s nice to know that it’s progressing, though, and that maybe we’ll get to see it in our lifetimes.
