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
Another industry insider, Skullzi , who is known for gaming investigations and reports, has shared a leaked screenshot allegedly taken from an in-development build of Starfield . Although the screenshot had poor quality, it nonetheless represented a huge leap forward in terms of improved visuals compared to other Bethesda’s RPGs. Realistic lighting, reflections, shadows, and detailed environments implied that Starfield could be a true next-gen title. In the bottom-left corner, the picture included the same piece of HUD that was present on previously leaked Starfield screenshots, which added a bit of credibility. But as the story was rapidly developing, Skullzi had to take down the post on Twitter since some users claimed the leak was fake. They pointed out a visible similarity between the alleged screenshot and environmental walking simulator Mýrdalssandur, Iceland . Skullzi's source (presumably from Bethesda) later confirmed that the leak was 100% f

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
Despite the increased amount of Starfield -related leaks, the game continues to remain a mystery. This disappointing situation, however, might change quite soon as Microsoft is reportedly planning to hold a Bethesda-related gaming event somewhere in the middle of March.

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
Of course, it is not just the fact that Bethesda has announced it is working on licensed titled in mainstream franchises like Indiana Jones that worries gamers. There has been very little news about either Starfield or The Elder Scrolls 6 for some time.

Dubbed Fallout in space, the gaming world seems to have forgotten about Starfield until now. When a post by ResetEra user AAMARMO suggested that the title could be a mobile game, it was quickly rebuffed by fan Potterson's claims that not only will S tarfield follow in the footsteps of the Fallout games, but that it is coming to E3.

This statement seems contradictory, given the nature of gaming console hardware. Neither Sony nor Microsoft has made firm statements regarding when the public can expect them to release the next generation of consoles, though one report suggests the next PlayStation system is at least three years away . Given that the current generation of consoles are nearly five years old, it seems highly unlikely that Starfield might be compatible with both the PlayStation 4 or Xbox One while simultaneously taking advantage of all the features offered by the next generation of gaming conso
Starfield is currently one of the most highly anticipated video games in the world, marking the first new franchise from Bethesda Game Studios in almost 25 years.

Games like Gotham Knights and Gran Turismo 7 have already been pushed to 2022 or beyond, and it's likely that more 2021 game delays will follow .

In a surprising social media post, Bethesda revealed that it has donated a bundle to the Make-A-Wish Foundation's auction. The highest bidder for the company’s package will have the opportunity to make a character for Starfield . In addition, the auction winner will walk away with an Xbox Series X, recalling that Bethesda recently announced that it would be acquired by the console’s creators , and sixteen titles from the studio. Several of the games seem to come from some of Bethesda’s most popular franchises including The Elder Scrolls, Wolfenstein , and Doom . At the time of writing, the ongoing bidding for the Bethesda bundle is just north of $2,000. Interestingly, the auction’s website goes into slightly more detail about what the winner can expect than the studio's post. It states that the highest bidder can look forward to working with the team behind the game, naming Todd Howard specifically, and that the winner should expect to " schedule time to create the character within 3 months of 2/28/202

Starfield creator Bethesda Game Studios is helping to raise funds for the Make-A-Wish Foundation's Mid-Atlantic chapter’s Evening of Wishes: Hope from Home auction by donating an eye-catching prize: the chance for the auction’s winner to create a character in the studio’s anticipated science-fiction title. Starfield was first announced during Bethesda’s E3 showcase back in 2018 standing alongside games like Rage 2, Doom Eternal , and the company's long-awaited next entry in the Elder Scrolls series .

Howard mentions that the next-gen technology is " optimized for the vast worlds we love to create ," and given Bethesda's commitment to producing larger worlds for each successive game in the Elder Scrolls franchise, it can likely be expected that both of the upcoming titles will feature open worlds on a truly impressive scale . The precise details of what else these new engine overhauls will bring are completely unkn
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 welimage class="left" url="https://betawiki.net/images/thumb/d/d6/Win3mmesol.png/240px-Win3mmesol.png"

An open world first-person shooter in the same vein as the ever-popular Fallout series, Starfield is thought to exist in the same universe as radroaches and Pip-Boy, but takes the premise up into the cosmos. For the first time ever, the series could move away from the apocalyptic wasteland of the Commonwealth or New Vegas and head even further into the future.

Microsoft has been noticeably collaborative with both Sony and Nintendo when it comes to cross-platform titles and enabling cross-play between bigger games. Realistically, Bethesda games already in production like [[https://Starfieldgalaxy.com/ Starfield Companions|https://starfieldgalaxy.com/]] or The Elder Scrolls VI will probably see some sort of timed exclusivity, but titles further down the timeline may incorporate more features for Microsoft's hardware and/or come with Xbox Game Pass support on lau

And not just the cinematics or models, but the entire environmental fidelity is easily the greatest that the industry has to offer. RDR2 maintains a cohesive sense of immersion by letting you take your time to explore everything it has to show you, from random NPC world events, each NPC's own routine in towns, to the Van Der Linde gang's ever-growing individual stories, and that's just scratching the surf
This statement seems contradictory, given the nature of gaming console hardware. Neither Sony nor Microsoft has made firm statements regarding when the public can expect them to release the next generation of consoles, though one report suggests the next PlayStation system is at least three years away . Given that the current generation of consoles are nearly five years old, it seems highly unlikely that Starfield might be compatible with both the PlayStation 4 or Xbox One while simultaneously taking advantage of all the features offered by the next generation of gaming conso
"What systems we put it out on - what's the hardware requirements - is still to be determined. We're pushing it; we're thinking very, very far in future so we're building something that will handle next-generation hardware. That's what we're building on right now, that's where our mind is, but that doesn't mean it wouldn't exist on the current systems as wel
In 2020, the game has been heavily featured in Microsoft's promotion of its purchase of Bethesda, placing the game alongside not only its fellow internal RPGs but huge shooter franchises like Doom and Wolfenstein . Despite the announcement and promotion, there's no indication as to when Starfield will release, and Bethesda representatives have said in interviews that fans will still need to be very patient while waiting for the far-off game . Work on the new IP, which is the first in over a decade for the studio, has been going on a decade itself, with a trademark filing in 2013 giving the first public indication of the new property. Following that, the rumor mill has been relatively quiet - until today, that
During Bethesda ’s livestream for Gamescom, the company’s PR vice president Pete Hines dropped a few statements regarding Starfield while talking to German community managers. According to his words, the development team is still not in the position to talk about the game - nor it is prepared to show anything Starfield -related. It probably requires a few more years of work to live up to the expectations, but Hines is already quite confident that the reveal - when it finally happens - will be an impressive one making the gaming community believe that the wait was totally worth it. In his famous manner of effectively saying nothing by telling a lot, Hines did not share a single detail on [[https://Starfieldgalaxy.com Starfield Weapons|https://starfieldgalaxy.com/]] , but he’s at least transmitted his positive attitude towards the sci-fi
It would’ve been an unprecedented event in the gaming industry if a huge publisher would’ve said that its upcoming title wasn’t worth the wait. In other words, Bethesda’s statement consists of what players want to hear about Starfield , but it delivers zero new information about the game. The reveal, however, should be huge when it finally happens. Considering Bethesda’s tradition of keeping secrets for as long as needed and then showcasing explosive trailers packed with tons of details and gameplay demos, Starfield ’s anticipated reveal will definitely offer a lot to chatter about. When exactly it is going to happen, though, is a complete myst
So, what exactly did they do to grab the attention of attendees and stream followers alike? Well, aside from an adorable Japanese game dev and an overly zealous yelling man in the audience who may or may not have been Eric Andre, not a whole lot. Proceedings initiated with Todd Howard pretending to tuck his tail between his legs and apologize/poke fun at the notoriously awful launch of Fallout 76 . Bethesda then incited many an incredulous eyebrow raise as it was announced that their divisive entry into the Fallout franchise would, at long last, be receiving human NPCs—a long-awaited community request which was subtly joked about in the update’s trailer—alongside a new battle royale mode for which none of the game’s twelve remaining players as
