Like in previous years, there will be four primary releases, two dungeon DLCs, one chapter, and one zone DLC. The names for the first dungeon DLC and chapter were announced, Flames of Ambition and Blackwood, respectively. They also provided most of the major details about the first two upcoming releases.

@majornelson @bethesda #freecodefridaycontest @majornelson doom classic for the nostalgia But I'd like to try elder scrolls, finish Wolf on the xbox (half way through the second one), and giving fallout a crack would be good too. Not enough hours in the day. A happy problem I suppose
- ToolxVicarious (@Matthew89537287) reported
@XboxSupport the mage house DLC on elder scrolls oblivion is not working properly can you guys look into it please?
- GT-Alex (@GT_Alex74) reported
@vaughnpinpin The problem with Skyrim is that it tried to be more like your average medfan - viking stuff, when the Elder Scrolls universe is in reality much more than that to the point where some of the deeper lore could be considered SF.
- Chris Likes Games (@ChrisGamerDude) reported
The only problem I find with the Elder Scrolls Games is once you go vampire.. Your gonna cause trouble in summary. Not to criticize the game a bit, just only for that part.

@BethesdaSupport @TESOnline @BethesdaSupport Hi when do you think I can get a response on my support ticket? I've been waiting for 2 months for my issue to be resolved.

@BroadwayQ @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Have you figured out a solution yet? I have the same problem over the past couple of hours
- Levi Hunt (@LeviHuntMT) reported
@Romudeth @PixelMetal Tony's right. Growing the brand/streaming service is long term thinking. Short term is 'let's get as much money as possible from Elder Scrolls VI' Long term is 'let's become the Netflix of video games'

@Kmega4 The issue for Sony is PSnow, cuz if u put gamepass on PS it will kill PS now. maybe they'll do something like Nintendo did with ori where they'll allow ps players to only access gamepass for elder scrolls & not the wider library

- J2VThaGamer (@J2VThaGamer) reported
The only Bethesda games I haven't played or tried yet is Prey, Rage 2, The Evil Within 1 & 2 and Wolfenstein. Mostly with Fallout or The Elder Scrolls I experienced technical and buggy issues.
- g'raha blast (@NISHIKlNO) reported
it's very interesting to think that there was a dedicated team at bethesda that would've been working on ps5 versions of starfield and elder scrolls 6 who are just not working on those versions anymore
- TurboChards (@TurboChards) reported
@Nick_Marseil Legacy like elder scrolls online that is a live service that gets updates to it base game all the time.
- Mark Grant (@kyoryunova) reported
@DragonicFiend I have no issues with this but I will state that some games that Bethesda make would be better coming to all platforms (switch eventually). Eg elder scrolls
- CANnibal Vegetarian 🏳️🌈 (@MatthwDayton) reported
It sounds like Elder Scrolls 6 will almost certainly return to being exclusive to Xbox/PC/Mobile. That's great news for Gamepass!! Perhaps I'll plunk down on a subscription for a month when ES6 releases. Is gamepass a streaming service (non dependent on a PCs hardware)?
- Scott Gagnon (@scottbott85) reported
@Syborite1 @Colteastwood If I had to guess, I would imagine that legacy titles mean service games like Elder Scrolls online or Fallout 76, not new titles in old franchises.
- 🦇 Queers' Morgan 🦇 (@nataliereed84) reported
You ever wish life was like Elder Scrolls or Fallout, and random strangers would just be like 'Hey, are you heading downtown? Could you deliver this sword to Mr. Chen at Burrard and Smithe for me? I'm sure he'll pay you for the trouble'.
- Shane Edwards (@ShaneEdwards185) reported
@dvdhilditch1996 @IGN Fallout and elder scrolls are glitch galore Live pc cam viewer.
- ConcernedGlobalCitizen (@GwiazdaLucas) reported
@DeckerTweetz @XboxGamePass They also own Obsidian. I'd stay away from Ubisoft, I think that might be their next big acquisition, and reportedly they're bringing ubisoft subscription service into game pass, or something like that. Atleast you'll have a blast playing Morrowind, my favorite Elder Scrolls.
- Primis Gaming (@primis_gaming) reported
@Syborite1 @Colteastwood Online Games are long a issue for anyone. He meant games like Fallout 76 and Elder Scrolls Online. Multi-Platform pure online games don't bother anyone.
- Rafael Gerardo #XboxSeriesX (@rafaelgrn) reported
@mynamisCHRIS Games as a service (Elder Scrolls Online e Fallout 76)
- An Ordinary Cat (@RhyRhyWhy) reported
@JustAnLED Elder Scrolls 6 will be a live service passion project for Bethesda. Todd Howard went on to say: 'We really wanted to take the series back to its roots and figure out what makes TES just work. We're asking a lot of big questions like 'What really gave Oblivion 16x the detail'
- Chris Aguilar (@chrisaguilar504) reported
@benkenobi2020 @JeremyPenter It might also be Microsoft trying to push Sony's hand on allowing GamePass on Playstation. 'You want future Bethesda games like Elder Scrolls VI and Fallout? Put our service on your platform or you won't get it'. It's unlikely that Sony will allow it but it's pressure regardless.
- Davisson Carvalho #Jair2022 (@HazukiFC) reported
@geoffkeighley @XboxP3 No. It didn't sound nothing quite what you've said. Sounded like exclusivity to the ecosystem (Xbox, PC&Cloud). DeathLoop e GhostWire will be Ps5 timed exclusives and those service games, such as The Elder Scrolls On Line, would keep the suport through the years to come. +
- Mike Griffin (@Griffgames) reported
@H_Sensa @MatPiscatella Not to mention, on PS Now as we speak you can play: Oblivion, Elder Scrolls Online, Doom 2016, Fallout 3, 4 and New Vegas, Wolfenstein 1, 2 and Old Blood, Dishonored 1 and 2, Prey, Evil Within 1 and 2, Rage 1 and 2. I.e., several Bethesda titles already on a PS sub service.
