Xbox CEO Asha Sharma in a post on social media has revealed she visited Bethesda Game Studios and was given a live playthrough of the upcoming open-world action RPG, The Elder Scrolls VI. She said the scale of the game is "incredible" and the story is even better.

"Live playthrough of The Elder Scrolls VI: ******** this morning," said Sharma. "The scale and grandeur are incredible. The story is even greater."

Bethesda Game Studios replied, "It was great being able to show you ********. Thank you for the kind words and a wonderful visit."

The censored part of the posts is likely the subtitle to the game, which would likely reveal the location. The subtitle in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is the province in the continent of Tamriel the game takes place in. It is the same with The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind.

A life-long and avid gamer, William D'Angelo was first introduced to VGChartz in 2007. After years of supporting the site, he was brought on in 2010 as a junior analyst, working his way up to lead analyst in 2012 and taking over the hardware estimates in 2017. He has expanded his involvement in the gaming community by producing content on his own YouTube channel and Twitch channel. You can follow the author on Bluesky.

From someone who does not play games? Anyway, Skyrim suffered from consollitis and was so casual it was absolutely terrible. I expect the next one to be garbage too.

And the bugs and glitches will be the most we have ever released in a game before! 🙂

I know a lot of the "gamers" here desperately want this to fail–which it won't–but I'm looking forward to it. Skyrim is one of my favorite games of al time. I just want more along the same lines.
