Q

Anonymous asked:

Since Skyrim has done so well that Bethesda gave it multiple rereleases, why not make new content for the game? By that, I mean dlc in the vein of Dawngaurd and Dragonborn.

It’s because the dev team is busy working on Elder Scrolls VI. Ports to other platforms like that are often handled by external contractor studios and not by the original dev team. Skyrim is no exception - Escalation Studios did the Skyrim VR port and Iron Galaxy did the Skyrim Switch port. The Elder Scrolls dev team is deep into developing the next game.
