The Elder Scrolls 6 is still a long way off, Bethesda warns: 'It'll be some time before we're ready to share more'

Alas, in a follow-up post on social media, the studio made it clear that you shouldn't start holding your breath just yet.

"Thank you for 40 years of shared memories," Bethesda wrote. "We can't wait to make even more together with The Elder Scrolls VI: Sentinel. Development continues, and while it'll be some time before we're ready to share more, it feels great to finally reveal the name and location with you."
