This market will resolve to "Yes" if Elder Scrolls VI is officially released in the US by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No". For the purposes of this market, "release" refers to the game becoming publicly available for purchase or download in the US. Early access, beta versions, other forms of pre-release availability, or leaks will not count as an official release. If the release is only for certain consoles (e.g. Xbox Series X/S) it will count. The resolution source will be official information from Bethesda Softworks or its parent company, Microsoft.**Strong trader consensus against an Elder Scrolls VI release by December 31, 2026, stems from Bethesda Game Studios’ extended development timeline on Creation Engine 3.** Full production only ramped up after Starfield shipped in 2023, and veteran reporter Jason Schreier stated in July 2026 that the open-world RPG remains at least two to three years away, pointing to a realistic 2028–2029 window at the earliest. Recent Xbox layoffs at Bethesda, which trimmed over 50 roles, have raised concerns about morale and potential delays despite studio assurances that the project remains the primary focus and “on track.” With no gameplay footage, release window, or marketing campaign since the 2018 teaser, historical patterns for major Bethesda titles reinforce the market’s view. An unlikely late-2026 shadow drop or accelerated crunch could shift sentiment, but current verified indicators make that improbable.
