This market will resolve to "Yes" if Elder Scrolls VI is officially released in the US by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No". For the purposes of this market, "release" refers to the game becoming publicly available for purchase or download in the US. Early access, beta versions, other forms of pre-release availability, or leaks will not count as an official release. If the release is only for certain consoles (e.g. Xbox Series X/S) it will count. The resolution source will be official information from Bethesda Softworks or its parent company, Microsoft.Recent official statements from Bethesda Game Studios and Xbox executives, including Todd Howard and Matt Booty, have reinforced that The Elder Scrolls VI remains in active development on Creation Engine 3 but is still years from completion, with playable builds only recently stabilizing. July 2026 layoffs at the studio further disrupted momentum, pushing credible estimates to a 2028–2029 release window at the earliest. This aligns with Bethesda’s established multi-year development cycles for flagship RPGs, as seen with Starfield, and the absence of any 2026 marketing push or guild-style previews. Traders view a December 31, 2026 release as incompatible with these timelines, though an unforeseen acceleration or surprise drop would represent the primary, albeit remote, upset scenario.
