Starfield Is Single-Player Only, Will Be Biggest Bethesda Game Yet

Bethesda has confirmed that it is fully focused on the development of both Starfield and The Elder Scrolls VI . Replying to fan concerns on Twitter about the fact that Todd Howard is involved with too many projects, Bethesda Senior VP of Marketing Pete Hines reassured them that those two titles are still his main priority. Howard, who has helped to lead both the Fallout and The Elder Scrolls series for more than a decade, also has roles in several other projects according to Hines. But both he and Bethesda as a whole are committed to finishing up work on the two high-profile games. The communications executive promised that recent announcements will not affect the development of either g

Starfield could’ve turned out to be visually stunning, if only the latest leaked screenshot, claimed to be captured in Bethesda’s sci-fi RPG, hadn’t been identified as a scene from an environmental game called Mýrdalssandur, Iceland . Despite that, Starfield is still rumored to be releasing this year, which implies there could be more leaks, both fake and genuine, coming in the near fut

The futures of both Starfield and The Elder Scrolls VI may become clearer next month, as Microsoft is apparently planning some sort of press event following its acquisition of Bethesda . With Microsoft’s purchase of Bethesda expected to be approved soon , the gaming giant is making plans to publicly reveal its intentions for the studio. While Bethesda has maintained that both Starfield and The Elder Scrolls VI are its top priorities for the immediate future, not much is known regarding their availability on other consoles moving forw

Even though Bethesda Game Studios now has four offices scattered around the world, with a new location recently announced to be in Dallas , Hines also made clear that just because the development team has more staff than ever before doesn’t mean development will go by that much more quickly. In fact, when talking about The Elder Scrolls VI specifically, Hines said that it likely won’t be out until the next console generation has arrived. «I don’t even know what the world is going to be like when it comes out; there will be a different console generation by then, I’m sure,» Hines sta

The Make-A-Wish auction page seems to have revealed an interesting, though admittedly very small, detail about the game’s development. Starfield creators will reach out to schedule developing this prize character with the auction winner in the months following the end of February. That is not much to go on but it doesn’t rule out a release date for the end of this year. Hopefully, there will be a press event from either Microsoft or Bethesda soon that will tell fans a little bit m

Hines continued by also talking about how even though Starfield updates|https://starfieldgalaxy.com/ and The Elder Scrolls VI have been officially announced, that doesn’t mean they’re even close to being ready. «I try really hard to manage people’s expectations. It’s not like ‘ Fallout 76 this year, Starfield next year, and then TES6 the year after.’ The timeline isn’t any different. What’s different is just trying to be transparent and say, ‘Don’t freak out, the next thing we’re doing is single-player [in Starfield], [and] we are making TES

Games industry insider Jeff Grubb confirmed on his podcast (via PushSquare ) that Microsoft is indeed still planning some sort of event to outline its plans for Bethesda. Around the 27:45 mark when speaking about E3, Grubb stated, » Microsoft’s E3 and Bethesda’s E3 could actually still be separate, they’re planning their stuff right now, and they’re planning it as two separate companies. » Later in the podcast, Grubb is asked if he thinks Microsoft will make some sort of Bethesda-related announcement following the finalization of the deal, to which he repl

For a few hours, the leaked Starfield screenshot looked really exciting, until it was debunked by the community. Interestingly, Skullzi has a record of reliable reports, and earlier in 2020, he leaked and confirmed a few other Starfield screenshots that were proven to be true. This time, however, the insider fell victim to the hype surrounding Bethesda’s anticipated sci-fi RPG. That’s a great lesson for everyone who naively assumes that everything they see on the Internet is t

» Yeah, I think they’re gonna have an event for this. Leading up to E3, I think this is one of the milestones for Microsoft. Once the deal closes they will talk about it in a in a big way. I don’t know if it’ll be like a full direct style event, but they will make note of it and they will talk about it extensively and explain what it means to everybody and kind of talk about the immediate future for both companie

Microsoft has been noticeably collaborative with both Sony and Nintendo when it comes to cross-platform titles and enabling cross-play between bigger games. Realistically, Bethesda games already in production like Starfield or The Elder Scrolls VI will probably see some sort of timed exclusivity, but titles further down the timeline may incorporate more features for Microsoft’s hardware and/or come with Xbox Game Pass support on lau
