Honestly, I’m pretty skeptical that The Elder Scrolls VI will really live up to the hype. Even if they manage to avoid a lot of criticism, it’s hard for me to imagine it being as good as Skyrim. With Bethesda still using the Creation Engine, RPGs having evolved so much since Skyrim, and their recent games being… well, let’s just say disappointing, it feels like the odds are stacked against TESVI. I really think Bethesda could have avoided a lot of this by doing what worked before: making more spin-off games like Fallout: New Vegas. The Elder Scrolls universe is so rich, and we need more stories in that world – and we needed them a long time ago!

Players seem to agree that the world and characters in Greedfall 2 show a lot of potential. The game’s setting, inspired by the Age of Exploration—a time of European colonization and the discovery of the Americas—is unusual for a fantasy RPG. This blend of fantasy and historical elements creates interesting situations and compelling character interactions, especially with the game’s companions.

The update introduces several new monsters, like Ibushi and Narwa from Monster Hunter Rise, Malzeno from Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak, and Ajaraka from Monster Hunter Wilds. But the biggest surprise is seeing Lao-Shan Lung, a legendary Elder Dragon, frozen in crystal. Could this massive beast really be returning to cause trouble?

This update, known as version 1.041.01.00 for PC and 1.041.020 for consoles, is a relatively small download for Monster Hunter Wilds.

Todd Howard, the game director, recently shared that The Elder Scrolls 6 will feature significantly more trees than Skyrim. He also described the new game as a traditional Bethesda RPG, built on the foundation of what Bethesda Game Studios does best.

We might finally start hearing more about the next Elder Scrolls game soon, or maybe not. But at least Todd Howard is now openly talking about it without avoiding the question of how long it’s been in development. His recent comments offer a small glimpse into the game’s design, and while it’s not much, it’s good to get any update at all.

This side quest has some really great rewards, but it’s designed for players who have already reached the end of the game. If you’re still in the middle of the game, you won’t be able to start it. The good news is the quest is always available, so you can complete it whenever you’re ready.

Starting in February 2026, the development team finally began to reveal more about The Elder Scrolls 6, a game that had been shrouded in secrecy for a long time. The initial teaser from 2018 only showed a glimpse of the coastline and the game’s title, and fans have been asking for updates ever since.

Meanwhile, Valheim really raised the bar for survival RPGs. It took the familiar elements of the genre and added a fresh, enjoyable experience, especially when playing with friends, all set in a beautiful and popular Nordic-inspired world. Several new games have appeared since Valheim, and while they aren’t direct copies, they clearly take a lot of ideas from it.

As a big fan of Obsidian, it’s been amazing to see everything they’ve been up to since Microsoft acquired them back in 2018! They’ve consistently released fantastic games like The Outer Worlds, Grounded, and Pentiment. Even while still updating Grounded 2, they’ve been hard at work on Avowed, a new RPG set in the world of Pillars of Eternity. Avowed actually launched really well – especially on Steam, and seemed to sell as expected – but Obsidian didn’t stop there! They kept improving it, and recently celebrated its first anniversary with a huge new update, which is awesome to see.
