The Elder Scrolls VI: Sentinel may finally have an official title and a new trailer, but Bethesda’s long-awaited RPG is reportedly still more than two years away from release.

Following the game’s recent re-reveal, Bloomberg journalist Jason Schreier addressed expectations surrounding its development timeline.

Writing on Bluesky, Schreier stated that The Elder Scrolls VI: Sentinel is still more than two years away, suggesting that a release before late 2028 is unlikely.

The Elder Scrolls VI: Sentinel Remains Years Away

The latest information follows similar comments Schreier made in July 2026, when he suggested the RPG was still at least two to three years from completion.

Earlier this year, Bethesda Game Studios director Todd Howard confirmed that development had reached an important milestone, describing the project as coming together while warning that its release remained distant.

The game’s development has also faced challenges, including reported layoffs affecting more than 50 employees working on the project during Microsoft’s restructuring in July.

Originally announced at E3 2018, The Elder Scrolls VI has now been in the public eye for more than eight years.

Despite the recent reveal of the Sentinel subtitle, Bethesda has yet to announce an official release date.

For now, fans hoping to explore the next chapter of The Elder Scrolls will need to remain patient.
