After letting go Starfield in September, Bethesda is now developing The older roles 6.

During a recent interview with Pretty funny gamesWhen asked about the timeline of Howard’s work at Bethesda and what he still wants to accomplish, the developer explained that he enjoys making games and that if he wasn’t making them, he would be playing them.
Howard also discussed the evolution of the release window for Bethesda games and is currently looking for ways to reduce long wait times.
“You know, they last a long time, and so I think one of the things we’re focusing on here is obviously making sure they’re of the highest quality,” Howard said, “but also finding ways to increase our production , because we don’t want to wait that long, right. It’s never our plan, but we want to make sure we do it right.’
“My hope is to continue doing this as long as possible. I have no plans to retire or anything like that.”
Howard has previously hinted that Bethesda is making plans for a new film Fallout game, which would theoretically be released after the release of The older roles 6. The developer stated last year that he would have announced the next one Older roles “more casual” when asked if he regrets announcing the game so early.
