'The Elder Scrolls 6' release date news 2016: Next game will take time to finish; Bethesda now working on 'TES 6'

"The Elder Scrolls" game franchise has become a massive hit throughout the years, and it is not surprising that the avid fans of the video game series would be expecting more a new game title out of the franchise. While many "Elder Scrolls" fans who participated at the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) 2016 earlier this month were looking forward to Bethesda officially announcing "The Elder Scrolls 6," they became disappointed as the game studio made no mention of such during their presentation. However, there is still hope that the new "Elder Scrolls" installment will still be released in spite of its E3 absence.

As reported by Kitguru, "The Elder Scrolls" series director Todd Howard already confirmed that Bethesda is already gearing up for the next installment of the game franchise. "The Elder Scrolls 6" is still a go even if it is not a part of the current lineup of the company. However, Bethesda might be taking up some time before the final version of the game can be released. This means that the fans will need to wait longer until "The Elder Scrolls 6" is finished.

Bethesda now has more time to focus on the next installments of their other game franchises. After the successful release of "Fallout 4," Bethesda may be able to switch its focus on other game projects, possibly on the continuation of "The Elder Scrolls" saga.

Meanwhile, there are rumors that "The Elder Scrolls 6" will be a follow-up game of the fifth "TES" installment called "Skyrim." Therefore, the fans can expect that the new game will be known as "Skyrim 2" where the game setting will still revolve around the kingdom of the same name. However, there is still a debate whether Bethesda will be moving on to the next chapter, with other possible titles such as "Redguard" and "Argonia."
