Bethesda: Of course there's going to be an Elder Scrolls V - eventually

Bethesda seems to think last weekend's Elder Scrolls V comments were blown out of proportion, so the master of massively single player RPGs decided to clarify things a bit.

"At his QuakeCon talk he was asked when TESV is coming out and Todd replied, 'Don’t look for a new Elder Scrolls game in the near future.' He also went on to say how much the franchise means to us and that it definitely will continue. He just wasn’t going to provide any timeframe on 'when,' wrote Pete Hines on the Bethesda Blog.

"Todd and Bethesda Game Studios are hard at work on their next big game, and we’re not ready to discuss it. As always, we prefer to have something amazing to show when we talk about it. We aren’t going to confirm or deny or comment on speculation, nor are we going to give hints about anything. If you know us by now, you know we don’t really do that."

He also noted that ZeniMax Online Studios -- not Bethesda -- is hard at work on an MMO, though when the big game will be ready for its big day is anyone's guess.

So, that's it for today's Bethesda news. If you'd like to know anything else about the company, just leave a misinterpreted, hyperbole-packed message at the sound of the beep.
