The Elder Scrolls 6 is definitely coming to PlayStation 5 now

After recent comments and actions, from Microsoft and Phil Spencer, it’s hard to deny the evidence mounting that points to The Elder Scrolls 6 making its way to PlayStation.

Many thought that since the Microsoft acquisition of Bethesda that the next Elder Scrolls RPG would skip the Sony console due to exclusivity.

Indiana Jones and The Great Circle will release later this year and on PlayStation in 2025

However, after the recent decision to bring Indiana Jones and the Great Circle to the rival console in 2025, it looks like PlayStation players will get the experience after all.

Now, before I go any further, this is speculation and opinion, but the signs are positive.

During a discussion at Gamescom, Spencer made comments about Xbox being much more open and more business-orientated.

He admits that there is a lot of pressure on the industry to grow and that all platform publishers will need to look at the bigger picture.

Despite spending around $100 billion on buying up companies, Microsoft’s gaming division seems to be expanding beyond the Xbox brand.

The key point in his talk was the following, “I think for us, as players and as fans, we just have to anticipate there’s going to be more change in how some of the ‘traditional’ ways games were built and distributed.”

This surely points to an idea that exclusivity, at least on the part of Microsoft, will start to trickle away.

Spencer continued, “But the end result has to be better games that more people can play. If we’re not focused on that, then we’re focused on the wrong thing.”

The Elder Scrolls is perhaps the biggest RPG franchise currently with thousands of people still playing Skyrim every day.

To hold back PlayStation players doesn’t make business sense for Microsoft. That would be a loss of hundreds of millions of dollars, and that’s not what Spencer wants.

While nothing is confirmed, we can see these comments as a hint of what’s to come, which seems to be a more open Xbox that will likely spread out their games, but hold on to some exclusive editions for Xbox Game Pass.
