The futures of both Starfield and The Elder Scrolls VI may become clearer next month, as Microsoft is apparently planning some sort of press event following its acquisition of Bethesda . With Microsoft's purchase of Bethesda expected to be approved soon , the gaming giant is making plans to publicly reveal its intentions for the studio. While Bethesda has maintained that both Starfield and The Elder Scrolls VI are its top priorities for the immediate future, not much is known regarding their availability on other consoles moving forw


For a few hours, the leaked Starfield screenshot looked really exciting, until it was debunked by the community. Interestingly, Skullzi has a record of reliable reports, and earlier in 2020, he leaked and confirmed a few other Starfield screenshots that were proven to be true. This time, however, the insider fell victim to the hype surrounding Bethesda's anticipated sci-fi RPG. That's a great lesson for everyone who naively assumes that everything they see on the Internet is t


Bethesda's secretive space RPG Starfield is almost certainly going to miss 2021, as suggested by recent reporting about the state of the games industry. The COVID-19 pandemic is said to be affecting the industry so badly that the 2020 fiscal year was effectively " lost " in terms of development schedules, and publishers are learning to keep target release dates under wr


Starfield could've turned out to be visually stunning, if only the latest leaked screenshot, claimed to be captured in Bethesda’s sci-fi RPG, hadn't been identified as a scene from an environmental game called Mýrdalssandur, Iceland . Despite that, Starfield is still rumored to be releasing this year, which implies there could be more leaks, both fake and genuine, coming in the near fut


It’s unfortunate, but Bethesda really seems to be headed down a troubling path. While they’ve still got their name attached to the tremendous resurgence of both Doom and Wolfenstein , they’ve totally besmirched their two most iconic franchises. Nobody wants to play a broken, buggy, live-service version of Fallout 4 , and absolutely nobody wants to see Skyrim squeezed down to a mobile form factor and packed full of heinous microtransacti


Bethesda has consistently made headlines over the last few months. The biggest shock came in September of last year when it was revealed that Microsoft had agreed to acquire ZeniMax Media in a deal worth $7.5 billion. This gave the Xbox parent company ownership not just of franchises such as Fallout , The Elder Scrolls , and DOOM but also of famous developers like Bethesda Game Studios and id Software. Now, it seems that Microsoft will also reap the benefits of Bethesda's foray into AAA licensed games, a future many could have not foreseen of the RPG stu


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


At this point, it’s hard to know exactly how Bethesda plans to monetize Starfield , but, given their recent track record, it may be time to start worrying. Fallout 76 , as well as its predecessor's post-launch implementation of the Creation Club, unabashedly pushed the sale of in-game currencies and micro-DLC, and it’s unlikely that the publisher will be willing to forego these unfavorable monetization practices for the sake of their new property. This could also cause a bit of a delay should designers choose to push back against certain development mandates regarding recurrent spending options in Starfie


With Bethesda seemingly involved in a growing number of major projects, including a Fallout television show, fans can't be blamed for growing worried about progress on Starfield and The Elder Scrolls VI , especially when the company has been so quiet about the two far-off titles. Hopefully, this confirmation from the studio will reassure players that Bethesda has not lost sight of what they value m


" Yeah, I think they're gonna have an event for this. Leading up to E3, I think this is one of the milestones for Microsoft. Once the deal closes they will talk about it in a in a big way. I don't know if it'll be like a full direct style event, but they will make note of it and they will talk about it extensively and explain what it means to everybody and kind of talk about the immediate future for both companie


The longer we go without hearing from those directly working on Starfield , the more it will begin to feel like vaporware. Sure, the game will almost certainly release at some point in the future, but could there be more internal strife at Bethesda than we know? Could this end up being something like The Last Guardian or Duke Nukem Forever —games that were hinted at many years before they actually released? It’s hard to say for sure, but, if Bethesda continues to keep Starfield ships|https://starfieldgalaxy.Com/ under wraps at next year’s E3, we may be in for some trou
