It may have been seven years since Bethesda Game Studios announced *The Elder Scrolls 6*, but fans shouldn’t expect to see it any time soon. According to Executive Producer Todd Howard, the game is still “a long way off,” though it has now become Bethesda’s primary focus.

Howard shared these insights during an interview with *GQ*, reflecting on *Fallout 4* when the conversation inevitably turned to the next *Elder Scrolls* game. “I’m preaching patience,” he said, emphasizing that the release is still far from where fans might hope. “I don’t want fans to feel anxious.”

He went on to confirm that *The Elder Scrolls 6* is being worked on daily at Bethesda Game Studios. In fact, an internal playtest took place just the day before the interview, highlighting the ongoing development efforts behind the scenes.

Talking about the eventual release, Howard revealed his vision for how the game could make its debut. “I like to just announce stuff and release it. My perfect version—and I’m not saying this is going to happen—is that it’s going to be a while and then, one day, the game will just appear.”

For fans eager to dive into the next chapter of *The Elder Scrolls*, patience remains the key as Bethesda continues to refine and build their long-awaited title.
