In a recent interview with GQ, Phil Spencer, the boss of Microsoft’s gaming division, basically confirmed that The Elder Scrolls 6 It will be a’Xbox exclusive.
The thing, in reality, was somewhat predictable and taken for granted by most of the players, but so far neither Betheda nor Microsoft had officially ruled on the matter. The new statements by Spencer, therefore, confirm that The Elder Scrolls VI will arrive on Xbox Series X | S and PC, but not on rival platforms, primarily PS5. A decision that, explains the Xbox boss, was not taken to “punish” the competition but rather to increase the value of the green-crossed ecosystem.
“This is not about punishing any other console. Basically I believe that all platforms can continue to grow,” says Spencer. “But to be on Xbox, I want us to be able to bring the full package of what we have available. And that could be true when I think of The Elder Scrolls VI as well as any of our other franchises.”
In the same article, Todd Howard, director of Bethesda Game Studios, talked about how Xbox Game Pass has changed the vision of the development team, since it allows you to give free rein to creativity and to create types of games that otherwise could not find a large enough audience.
Staying on the subject, again from the GQ article, we learned that Xbox Game Pass was originally designed to be a rental service.
