“Given the many challenges we’re facing due to the pandemic.”
The usual announcements at this year’s now-cancelled E3 will be replaced by various publisher digital events – but don’t expect a showcase from Bethesda.
The Fallout and Elder Scrolls publisher has today announced it will not host a June livestream due to the “many challenges” the company now faces amid the ongoing coronavirus crisis.
Given the many challenges we’re facing due to the pandemic, we will not host a digital Showcase in June. We have lots of exciting things to share about our games and look forward to telling you more in the coming months.

Fans keen to hear more on the studio’s upcoming projects – especially those slated to hit the next generation of consoles – will now need to wait a little longer.
This June, it will have been two years since Todd Howard announced The Elder Scrolls 6 on stage at E3 2018 via a CGI teaser.
That game, Howard said, would arrive after the first instalment in a major new Bethesda franchise, Starfield. The publisher has not announced new details on either since.
