'Elder Scrolls 6' or 'Skyrim' 2 release date not expected to be out any time soon

Bethesda Softworks

Fans should not be expecting a sequel to "The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim" coming out any time soon.

In an interview with Dualshockers, Bethesda Vice President for Marketing Pete Hines indicated that no news about a sequel to the hugely popular role-playing game is expectd to come out in the immediate future.

Hines also said that Bethesda is now currently focusing all of its energy and resources into the development of "Fallout 4," meaning there will be very little time leftover to work on any other title, let alone a major release such as a supposed sequel to "Skyrim." Hines added that Bethesda may not even talk about what game they plan to work on next until they are done with "Fallout 4."

Even though "Skyrim" fans will sadly have to wait a while longer to even get new word about their beloved game, they can still tide themselves over by trying out "The Elder Scrolls Online." DLC for the massively multiplayer online role-playing games (MMORPG) is scheduled to be released later this year, and more new content is also expected to come out next year.

For "Skyrim" die-hards still insistent on sticking to their beloved title, they will be glad to know there is a new mod they can play around with.

The new mod, known as Toon Skyrim, is the work of Reddit user "UniqueUses," according to iDigital Times.

As the name of the mod implies, it will basically make the world within "Skyrim" look like a cartoon, or at least a very low tech video game. Objects in the game will become less detailed once the mod is applied, and the good news is that even computers that are relatively low end in terms of graphics will be able to run the game at this setting very smoothly.

Toon Skyrim will be available to download at the mod website, The Nexus.
