The Elder Scrolls 6 is one of the most anticipated video games at the moment but sadly it keeps on getting delayed every time. Bethesda Studios released the first trailer of the next Elder Scrolls installment around two years back and there are hardly any updates after that. There are a few updates on TES 6 gameplay and characters, but nothin about the premiere date.
Fans have been eagerly waiting for The Elder Scrolls 6 release and it seems there is another reason which could delay the game. It has been reported that Netflix is adapting the game storyline to create The Elder Scrolls live-action TV series and it could easily affect the game launch. Here are more details on The Elder Scrolls 6 release date delay and other game updates after the reports of Netflix adapting it for a TV series.
Netflix is making The Elder Scrolls TV Series
The Elder Scrolls TV series could be in works at Netflix as per insider Daniel Richtman who posted the first rumors about it. Even though it could be in the very early stages, but Netflix is surely discussing a potential Elder Scroll TV series with Bethesda Studios.

Netflix is keen to adapt more video games to TV series after the success of The Witcher starring Henry Cavill and they want to repeat the same. There is no better franchise than “The Elder Scroll” which has millions of fans and has been running through decades. Netflix and Bethesda have not confirmed anything at the moment but there are other similar projects that have been announced.
Netflix and Capcom have confirmed “Resident Evil: Infinite Darkness”, whereas Bethesda and Amazon are confirmed to work on the Fallout TV series. The Elder Scrolls 6 development could surely experience some lags as the same team will be involved with the Netflix series.
The Elder Scrolls 6 Release Date and Other Updates
The Elder Scrolls 6 release date and gameplay details are hardly available as everything is considered a rumor at this point. Bethesda has asked the fans not to expect a game launch anytime soon as they will release the RPG “Starfield” before TES 6 and even that game is not out.
One day closer to the year when Starfield will be released! And another year closer to The Elder Scrolls 6! No matter what game you are hyped for, here is to the future of gaming as a whole, as I have the feeling next year will be AMAZING for the entire industry!#HappyNewYear pic.twitter.com/B9D3oaJTYt
