It appears that Game Informer magazine has an article concerning the next installment of the Elder Scrolls franchise.

Thought you folks might want to read the article...

Yeah, I think it' s already in development. It' s going to be a awhile though as it said it' s for the next generation of consoles which is a way off still. I' m glad they are making it this time early in the generation for the consoles so the framerate won' t suffer as badly and hopefully it' ll be availabe to other consoles other than the Microsoft ones. I like this new fighting system they talk about...more action and more blood is definately a good thing in that bland system. I just hope they don' t take away from the massive amounts of tasks to do (I read the world is going to be smaller) and the amount of customization you can give to your weapons and spells.

Yeas, it has been in developemnet for the past two years. They are hoping to have it done by the holiday season of 2005. My guess is sometime in 2006 though.

As of right now there are a few screens. I' ll have to dig them up. Technically they aren' t supposed to be posted. I can PM them to anyone that wants them though, just drop me a PM and I' ll give you a link.

For anyone wondering imagine knights that are 50% Doom graphics and 50% fable. Thats about it, nothing really exciting besides for some rocks and a bunch of faces. And same for the enviormetnts. Neat thing will be that all the peices will be interchaingable in TES2. And the fact taht the knights armor will be up for grabs/lootings down to the right gauntlet, or left shoulderpad. Mix and mach to your delight kinda scenerio.

I would think the graphics would be much better than that, especially from a next gen console. Unless of course you are talking about style...
