“You’re then doing concepting and design for the world, and then once we we’re wrapping up one game, we can really start prototyping the new one. “We’re working on the world,” Howard continued. So we’ve already done a take on the music for Elder Scrolls 6- the music we put in the teaser for it.
We discuss the beginning of the game, which we’ve had for a very long time. “So, take Elder Scrolls 6– we figure out where it’s set, what’s the tone, what are the big features. “Like I like to think about, okay, how does the game start, what does the player do first? We do music early. “We start concepting, so we’ll do concept art, and for one reason or another, I usually have the beginning of the game worked out,” Howard said. Interestingly, the beginning of The Elder Scrolls 6 has been mapped out “for a very long time”. Later on in the interview, Howard described the early production phase of new projects – which is the current status of The Elder Scrolls 6 – which involves concept art, working on the music, figuring out the game’s setting, and more. So you have to think about, okay, people are gonna play the next Elder Scrolls game for a decade, two decades, and that does change the way you think about how you architect it from from the get-go.” We don’t see it slowing down, and people will probably be playing it 10 years from now, also. Skyrim’s 11 years old- still probably our most played game. People are playing games for a long time, you know. “We’re going to make sure we do it right for everybody. Howard says that the development team is aware that that’s going to be the case with The Elder Scrolls 6 as well- and that, in turn, also changes how they approach development itself. Of course, Bethesda Game Studios’ titles tend to be massive and brimming with content, which means players are going back to them for years after launch.
And look, I mean, if I could go back in time, it would never have been my plan to wait as long as it’s taken for it.” We want it out, too, and I wish they didn’t take as long as they did, but they do. “I have a vague idea ,” Howard said recently on the Lex Fridman podcast. Bethesda Game Studios’ Todd Howard, who’s directing both upcoming games, knows that those long gaps aren’t always the easiest for the fans, and wishes the studio’s new RPGs didn’t take so long to develop. New releases are usually separated by several years, and it doesn’t seem like that’s going to change anytime soon.īy the time Starfield launches next year, BGS’ last major release, Fallout 76, will be nearly five years old, while the next game by the studio, The Elder Scrolls 6, is likely to take a long time to come out after the sci-fi RPG’s release as well. New games developed by Bethesda Game Studios have always been among the most highly anticipated releases over the years, from the likes of Fallout to Starfield, but it’s no secret, of course, that the developer likes to take its sweet time putting those new games out.
