There are a lot of rumors surrounding Bethesda's most anticipated role-playing game, "The Elder Scrolls 6." The game studio hasn't provided any updates on the sequel, which led some fans to come up with their own theories as to when this game will really come out. While Bethesda is preparing for the release of "Skyrim" remastered, fans of the game franchise just can't help but wonder when they will see a new "The Elder Scrolls" game.
The good news is that Bethesda already confirmed that "The Elder Scrolls 6" is coming. The game is real and it's happening. "The Elder Scrolls 5" was a huge success that a follow-up is inevitable. However, the question is whether development for "TES 6" has started or not. According to Pete Hines, Bethesda's Vice President of PR and Marketing, the team hasn't touched on "TES 6" just yet.
While waiting for significant updates from Bethesda, some gaming news outlet have formulated their own theories about what "The Elder Scrolls 6" could bring to the table. As reported by GamingBolt, it would make for a better game experience if Bethesda will tone down on the perks that come with leveling up. Perk-based leveling means having the opportunity to unlock bonuses and abilities using points earned by leveling up.
According to the publication, RPG titles, like "The Elder Scrolls 6," have been doing great even without those perks because they can disrupt the game balance in the first place. It was suggested that Bethesda could just go for skill-based leveling as this could help players come up with a great build for their chosen character.
It's still early to tell what "The Elder Scrolls 6" can feature. It will still be years before Bethesda will finally release the game. Although a release date window wasn't provided, speculations are rife that the game should be ready by 2019. Until Bethesda makes the official announcement, any rumors about the game should be treated accordingly.
