With The Elder Scrolls 6 still on the distant horizon, fans are hopeful that Bethesda has learned from Starfield’s mixed reception. However, it remains a challenge to see how the studio can return to a more focused development style when its top creatives are required to manage such a massive corporate infrastructure. We likely won’t see the results of this evolution until 2030 or whenever the next trip to Tamriel finally arrives.
In the meantime, one detail is certain: Todd Howard has confirmed that The Elder Scrolls 6 will feature significantly more foliage than Skyrim, sparking renewed theories that Valenwood might be the next setting.
