As we’ve reported, Bethesda’s Todd Howard recently hinted the game won’t be coming until 2026 at least, and the new GQ article also repeats the notion that the game won’t arrive until 15 to 17 years after Skyrim (although they don’t support that figure with any quotes). Similarly, platforms for The Elder Scrolls 6 haven't been confirmed yet but, given Microsoft's acquisition of Bethesda's parent company ZeniMax Media, releases on PC, Xbox Series X and Xbox Series.

Howard confirmed that The Elder Scrolls VI would not be launching on the Xbox One and PS4 console generation, indicating that it will likely see an Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5 release. And that would be true when I think about Elder Scrolls VI. The next Elder Scrolls will be an Xbox exclusive.

Well, it seems we can now check off that box – in a new interview with GQ, Spencer was asked again about exclusivity, and it sure sounds like The Elder Scrolls VI is on that list.
We know Starfield is, and Phil Spencer and various Bethesda big wigs have strongly implied most future Bethesda games will be, but it hasn’t been directly confirmed that the studio’s biggest upcoming game, The Elder Scrolls VI, will be an Xbox exclusive. Bethesda has mentioned legacy content would still release on PlayStation consoles, like with the recently announced The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Anniversary Edition, which will launch on November. In an interview with British GQ, Spencer said that he sees the sequel to Skyrim as a. While Elder Scrolls 6 has yet to be released, it has been all but confirmed that the game will be coming to Xbox One, PC, and yes, probably PlayStation 4.
Ever since Microsoft snapped up Bethesda, there has been much speculation about which upcoming games will be PC/Xbox exclusives. Head of Xbox Phil Spencer has all but confirmed that The Elder Scrolls VI will be an Xbox console exclusive.
