The Elder Scrolls franchise is composed of five mainline games and several spin-offs, all telling different stories throughout Tamriel’s history.
The Elder Scrolls is a sizable franchise with five full-fledged mainline titles and an MMO, but players don’t control the same protagonist every time. Some of the most popular Elder Scrolls games are Oblivion and Skyrim, with the latter being more well-known thanks to the number of remakes it’s received. However, the Dragonborn isn’t the only hero in The Elder Scrolls games, and they may not be the most powerful. Many calamities have threatened Tamriel throughout the ages and have required many heroes to save the world. Bethesda’s work on The Elder Scrolls franchise created phenomenal stories with unique protagonists, a trend that will hopefully continue in Elder Scrolls 6.
The Elder Scrolls franchise stretches back to 1994, with the release of The Elder Scrolls: Arena, with the most recent addition of new content being Elder Scrolls Online’s Blackwood expansion. Unfortunately, the mainline games have not seen a new title since Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim released in 2011. Since then, only remakes and expansions for Skyrim and Elder Scrolls Online expansions have joined the popular fantasy franchise. Despite Bethesda’s announcement for Elder Scrolls 6‘s development, there is no word on when the studio will complete the project.
