A week ago, an industry insider shared their knowledge regarding Bethesda’s plans to launch Starfield at the end of 2021 . According to a short post on ResetEra forums, the company was allegedly aiming at a 2021 release date as of a few months ago. These plans could’ve been impacted by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, which has negatively affected many titles that are being currently developed. The insider also added that the alleged 2021 release was being discussed at the end of 2020, which basically means that a lot could’ve changed since t

Upcoming titles The Elder Scrolls 6 and Starfield will be available on Xbox Game Pass on day one of their launches, according to Bethesda executive producer Todd Howard. Microsoft's acquisition of the company isn't yet wrapped up, but this news indicates both parties are confident the deal will finish without a hi

Howard remained as tight-lipped as ever about a release date for either title, only saying it'll " be a while. " This could mean years, but it could very well mean months, considering Howard's been historically blasé about release dates that ended up happening less than a year later. The implication of two major titles being available on the very first day of their release makes a pretty strong case for the notion Game Pass subscribers will have immediate access to all future Bethesda titles. It's just as possible those same subscribers will essentially never have to pay outright for a Bethesda game in the future, as long it's an Xbox exclusive (which quite a few of them will

Another industry insider, Skullzi , who is known for gaming investigations and reports, has shared a leaked screenshot allegedly taken from an in-development build of Starfield . Although the screenshot had poor quality, it nonetheless represented a huge leap forward in terms of improved visuals compared to other Bethesda’s RPGs. Realistic lighting, reflections, shadows, and detailed environments implied that Starfield could be a true next-gen title. In the bottom-left corner, the picture included the same piece of HUD that was present on previously leaked Starfield screenshots, which added a bit of credibility. But as the story was rapidly developing, Skullzi had to take down the post on Twitter since some users claimed the leak was fake. They pointed out a visible similarity between the alleged screenshot and environmental walking simulator Mýrdalssandur, Iceland . Skullzi's source (presumably from Bethesda) later confirmed that the leak was 100% f

Bethesda has made a promise to players claiming that its sci-fi RPG Starfield , currently in development, will be worth the long wait. That’s probably enough to inspire the fan community a little bit, especially considering that pretty much nothing specific has been revealed about the game so

I think many fans of Bethesda Game Studios would agree that the studio's last title, Fallout 4 , was a great game , although a safer entry in the series when it came to new additions that its fanbase may not have connected with, like its Settlements system and more. Otherwise, there's no doubt a lot to love from Fallout 4 and other Bethesda games like Oblivion, Skyrim, Fallout 3 , and all of their predecess

If that is indeed the case, it may herald a gradual overhaul of how players purchase and play games. It could lead to a phase out of physical and digital one-time purchase copies in favor of monthly subscription streaming services. Bethesda's status as a prolific studio with a considerable degree of clout may make it the standard bearer for such a revolution, or at the very least, the forerunner in Microsoft's ongoing studio acquisition campa

With The Elder Scrolls VI , Bethesda Game Studios will need to look at everything that has worked for and against them, while also creating new additions to a series that's a staple amongst epic fantasy RPGs. After all, the best developers take what they've learned from their previous titles and apply and refine the mechanics that worked incredibly well, as well as tweaking or abandoning the ones that did not pan out so m

Starfield was announced at E3 2018, and since then, next to nothing has been revealed about the game. The few scraps of information that Bethesda has made public since - like the fact that Starfield will be an exclusively single-player game - have come very recently. At its reveal, Bethesda said that there was still a long wait in store for Starfield, and there are no hints as to when that wait will be over yet. All that’s known on the subject is that Starfield is expected to launch before the long-awaited Elder Scrolls

Despite the increased amount of Starfield -related leaks, the game continues to remain a mystery. This disappointing situation, however, might change quite soon as Microsoft is reportedly planning to hold a Bethesda-related gaming event somewhere in the middle of March. It you could try these out be an excellent opportunity to reveal some enticing information about Bethesda’s future and its upcoming projects - including, of course, Starfield . The event is yet to be officially confirmed as it is just another insider statement at the mom
