Developer Bethesda Game Studios announced The Elder Scrolls VI more than half a decade ago, at E3 2018, but according to executive producer and game director Todd Howard, the game is “still a long way off.” Howard told GQ this in a new interview, where he also teased that, when TES VI is ready for release, the company might shadow-drop it.
GQ mentions Bethesda shadow-dropping The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered back in April, and asks if the company could “actually do that with” TES VI. Howard says, “You might say that was a test run. It worked out well.”
While not definitive, it sounds like shadow dropping TES VI is a possibility one day, but given Howard also told GQ the game is still a long way off — more than seven years after its initial reveal — it will be a while before we see anything like that happen.
Elsewhere in the interview, Howard says Bethesda has “hundreds” of people working on the Fallout franchise right now, between Fallout 76 and “other things we’re doing,” but notes that TES VI “is the everyday thing.”
