The Elder Scrolls VI is at least five years away, and the next entry in the series is likely to skip PlayStation 5, according to court documents

Despite previous reports revealing the game’s 2026 release window, The Elder Scrolls VI is at least five years away and is likely to release, unsurprisingly, only on PC, Xbox Series X, and Xbox Series S.

Today, new court documents of the FTC vs. Microsoft case surfaced online, including a summary of Microsoft’s approach following acquisitions since 2018, which includes all games released by Bethesda since its acquisition as well as the yet-to-be-released sixth entry in The Elder Scrolls series. According to the document, the game is not releasing on PlayStation 5, and its expected release window is 2026 or later. As reported on X/Twitter by Axios’ Stephen Totilo, during the testimony at the hearing, Phil Spencer clarified the game’s release date, saying that it is at least five years out, and that platforms have yet to be determined, although, back in 2022, Microsoft did say that The Elder Scrolls VI is unlikely to release on platforms other than PC and Xbox Series X|S.

    You’re getting downvoted but you’re right. People who buy starfield need to accept to themselves that they enjoy bad games and rewarding the companies that make them.

      If the people are enjoying it then it’s not a bad game, it’s a game you don’t like.

      Which is fine, spend your money where you want to.

        People can like bad things. That’s why “guilty pleasures” exist.

        For a long time I liked the Amazing Spider-man 2, but even then I could acknowledge that it was a terrible movie.

        If you enjoy Todd Howard laughing at you then that’s fine. But at least admit you have a humiliation fetish.

          I imagine you must have a pretty sad life if you find yourself spending free time insulting people who enjoy something you don’t like.

          There must be some serious mental illness going on to spend time in threads about products you don’t like. I don’t like Ford vehicles, but I don’t spend my time on Ford forums insulting them and their owners because I’m not a miserable loser with nothing to fill my time.

          Go find something you enjoy. Nobody is interested in your pathetic trolling.

            The only thing worse than corporate cock sucking is this constant insistence that only positive opinions should be shared. If I wrote a dystopic novel about that I’d be criticized for being too heavy handed. And since enshittification is directly the fault of people like you, I’ll piss on you all I’d like thanks.

                Lol? Armchair psychology much? I’m talking the shit with my friends and you’re occasionally begging for my attention like I’m your alcoholic father. Stop projecting your shit onto me.

              It has nothing to do with agreement. It’s the premise of spending time in a forum for a product you don’t like, and insulting everyone else. That screams mental illness and a miserable life.
