Fans of The Elder Scrolls series constantly hound him about any kind of news on the next Elder Scrolls game. The most common thing that Hines tweets about TES 6 is that he will not be talking about it till there is an official announcement of the title. The studio has repeatedly revealed that there are a bunch of projects in the pipeline, before it is time for TES 6.https://twitter.com/DCDeacon/status/790313737509081088https://twitter.com/DCDeacon/status/742424102963548160TES 6 is one of the most anticipated titles following the demand for new content by fans who have spent hours playing The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. Skyrim got a remaster this year, free for PC users who got the Legendary Edition, or owned all the downloadable content packs, but at a steep price for console users. The Elder Scrolls game come out roughly every four years, which points to a release in 2019. Will Bethesda spring a welcome surprise and will we see the next Elder Scrolls game, after Skyrim this year, or is that being too hopeful?
