The damages of the COVID-19 pandemic could affect the industry for years, an anonymous publisher told Fanbyte 's Imran Khan , who retweeted his reporting on April 8 in relation to Bethesda's Deathloop being delayed to September 14. " The truth is, players aren’t going to get every video game we - we, as in every developer - want to put out this year ," the designer of an unspecified game was quoted as saying. " That sucks, but it’s the truth. We don’t want to put out a mess, we want to put out the best games we can, and we’re moving at three-quarters speed on average days and way less on bad days. " Twitter news sleuth IdleSloth84 claims that this is may be in reference to starfield reviews|https://starfieldgalaxy.com/ , but no official confirmation of a "delay" for the game with no confirmed release date has been provided at publication t

In the meantime, Fallout 76 is slated to arrive just next month on November 14 for PS4, Xbox One, and PC. Hopefully, it will be an enjoyable multiplayer experience that will help make the trip to Starfield and The Elder Scrolls VI feel that much shor

Bethesda’s subsidiary developers were arguably the only redeeming factor of the conference; we got a glimpse at updates coming to last May’s Rage 2 and an extended look at Doom Eternal courtesy of Id, and we saw a few snippets of gameplay from Machine Games’ two upcoming Wolfenstein spin-offs, one of which will be a VR ti

Fallout has already made a name for itself in the sci-fi genre, but just imagine a world where psychotic robots roam around the cavernous halls of a space station and take on the remnants of human life. The studio is clearly working on something big for E3, but it's best to take everything with a very large grain of salt for the time being. If Starfield really is coming though, prepare to look to the stars for something new, especially if the game makes its debut at

In a recent discussion with Gamespot at PAX Australia, Bethesda's VP of Marketing Pete Hines spoke a bit more about both Starfield and The Elder Scrolls VI and explained why they decided to announce both games so far in advance. Hines acknowledged that while it would have likely been better to continue going down this route of announcing games only shortly before they're ready, he said that the aim with these two reveals was to be transparent to their f

Todd Howard has promised that Bethesda's upcoming titles Starfield and The Elder Scrolls 6 will be running on technology that represents the company's biggest engine overhaul since the release of Oblivion back in 2006. This bold claim comes in the wake of Microsoft's massive buyout of ZeniMax Studios and all of its associated studios, including Bethesda. The buyout cost Microsoft $7.5 billion and results in the company owning the rights not only to Elder Scrolls and Starfield but to Doom , Fallout , and many other franchises as w

"Would it have been better if it was some years from now and we just go, 'Surprise, we're making a game called Starfield , and it's out X months later?' Yeah. For sure," said Hines. "But at the same time, there is also value in every day between there people aren't freaking out about us making Fallout 76 as an online-only game as a service and this is all they're ever maki

The company has developed a new engine tool that allows the development team to create a larger landmass for their world. It’s unclear if Howard was referring to a landmass continent, or perhaps multiple planets given the sci-fi genre of the game, but the size of the overall map will be large in any c

Hines continued by also talking about how even though Starfield and The Elder Scrolls VI have been officially announced, that doesn't mean they're even close to being ready. "I try really hard to manage people's expectations. It's not like ' Fallout 76 this year, Starfield next year, and then TES6 the year after.' The timeline isn't any different. What's different is just trying to be transparent and say, 'Don't freak out, the next thing we're doing is single-player [in Starfield], [and] we are making TES

In a lengthy essay published to Bethesda.net following Microsoft's acquisition, Todd Howard mentioned a scant bit of info about the two titles, if only to remind fans that they still exist. Howard's essay reflected on the legacy of Bethesda and its partnership with Xbox, which allowed it to bring Morrowind to the Xbox console back in 2002. Howard claims that being bought by Microsoft will allow Bethesda to make the most use of the Xbox Series X's next-gen technology to advance the development of both Starfield and The Elder Scrolls 6 . Most notably, Howard said that the Series X's new hardware has led to Bethesda's biggest engine overhaul since Oblivion . To quote the man himself, " These new systems are optimized for the vast worlds we love to create, with generational leaps not just in graphics, but CPU and data streaming as wel

Despite having Fallout 76 launch in less than a month and a ton of other games in the pipeline, perhaps the biggest moment for publisher Bethesda in all of 2018 was when it revealed both Starfield and The Elder Scrolls VI at E3 , the next two titles that Bethesda Game Studios will be creating in the coming years. It was a drastic departure for Bethesda who instead tends to sit on their game announcements until they are closer to actually releas
