A glimmer of hope for PlayStation users.
Microsoft’s latest purchases have shaken the entire industry, and it is that now, because it is the novelty, and because it is simply topical due to the problems they are suffering, we focus on the purchase of Activision Blizzard, but we also have the Bethesda purchase there. This not only served for the games of this company to reach, for the most part, Xbox Game Pass, but we could also notice it in other details, such as the fact that Starfield is going to be exclusive to Xbox and PC.
After this announcement, and others like RedfallMany PlayStation users had the well-founded fear that they would not be able to play more titles from this company on their consoles, the biggest loss being The Elder Scrolls VI, that is, the sequel to Skyrim that we have been waiting for so many years.
Now, this clue that has been found, would allow us to deduce that this The Elder Scrolls VI will not be exclusive to Xbox, but it would be multiplatformlike the previous installment of this same franchise.
This track is very interesting
During the month of December last year, Microsoft had to submit to the FTC (United States Federal Trade Commission), a list of Bethesda games that would launch soon, and would be exclusive to Xbox consoles. As we learned, there were three video games on that list, Starfield and Redfall being both safeand we all assumed that the third one would be The Elder Scrolls VI.
Even so, we have all overlooked a detail, and that is that, as the journalist Stephen Tolito affirms in the following thread, in the month of January, Hi-Fi Rush, a video game was officially launched, without prior announcement. developed by Tango Gameworks, and that therefore it comes from Bethesda. With this they would already make three exclusive Bethesda video games, and therefore, if there have been no errors, The Elder Scrolls VI should be multiplatform.
Last week, a Microsoft lawyer said the company currently plans for two upcoming ZeniMax games to be Xbox/PC-exclusive (not PlayStation).
But in December, Microsoft lawyers said “three future titles” from ZeniMax would go Xbox/PC-only

Even so, we cannot yet celebrate or anything like that, since it is not something that is known for sure, far from it. For this reason, we should be cautious, but it is true that it is a fairly accurate clue, since is included within a legal document.
