It is rumored that Bethesda will announce "The Elder Scrolls 6: Argonia" on E3 2016 this year.


Bethesda Softworks took to Twitter to announce that they will be holding another press conference on E3 on June 12 at 7 p.m. According to IGN, this is the second showcase for the gaming company. In their first E3 press conference last year, they announced "Fallout 4" and "Doom."

Since the event is still a few good months away, there have been many speculations as to what Bethesda's showcase will include. According to Neurogadget, the company might feature "Battlecry" if "Doom" and "Dishonored 2" won't be released this year. According to the website, "The Elder Scrolls 6: Argonia" is a big game worthy of hype but it seems unlikely for Bethesda to announce it on E3 2016. Since you need big announcements to entice fans to gather, a "Wolfenstein" game might pop up as "Fallout" news might be too soon.

MobiPicker reports that the earliest possible time that Bethesda could release information for "Elder Scrolls 6" may be in 2017 or after the release of "Fallout 4" DLCs. The website adds that Bethesda is planning to release details about the DLC soon but there is no specific date given yet.

The rumors may contain some truth as Dual Shockers report that the game may not come out anytime soon even if "The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim" was released almost four years ago. Even with the release of "The Elder Scrolls Online," there has been no official word about the next game.

Pete Hines, the VP of Marketing over at Bethesda, told the outlet that it will be a "very long time" before news of a new Elder Scrolls game will roll out. The company is currently working on "Fallout 4" and the whole studio is giving their sole attention to it. Additionally, Bethesda Game Studios has a reputation of only working on one game at a time. However, a DLC for "The Elder Scrolls Online: will be coming out this year.

"TES 6" could possibly be called "Skyrim 2," an article by Gaming Bolt helpfully articulates the issues of the last game. They mentioned that the loading time should be cut down between two places or worlds as "it will allow players to feel like they are deeply immersed in the world created." A new engine or adapting the older ones would smooth out the loading times. Additionally, they recommended for Bethesda to look at "The Division" whose developers have said to cut its load times.
