"Just pretend we didn't announce it": Todd Howard knows The Elder Scrolls 6 teaser has haunted RPG fans for nearly 8 years, but its early reveal was about "informing our audience"

The Elder Scrolls 6.

Bethesda Game Studios first unveiled The Elder Scrolls 6, a title that now arguably stands as one of the most hotly anticipated new games underway, back in 2018 with a short E3 teaser – but it was perhaps revealed a tad bit too early.

Nearly a decade has passed, after all, with little solid news of The Elder Scrolls 6 since the infamous trailer – if you can call it that. Bethesda boss Todd Howard is well aware of all this, though, and it seems like he wishes things had gone a bit differently.

Speaking in an interview with IGN, he jokes about the long-awaited RPG, "Just pretend we didn't announce it. Doesn't exist. No one's heard a word." Easier said than done, unfortunately.
