The release date of "Elder Scrolls 6" is still unconfirmed, but fans are already looking forward to some features that may be included in the game, including a virtual reality (VR) capability in the Xbox Project Scorpio console and a possible multiplayer content.

In the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) last year, Todd Howard, director of Bethesda Games Studio, revealed that they are already working on "Elder Scrolls 6" but he admitted that the game is still "a long way off." Howard also said that Bethesda is working on two huge projects, but unfortunately, this does not include "Elder Scrolls 6" yet.

This means that the title is not yet up for launch anytime soon. Nonetheless, fans are already looking forward to seeing excellent features that may be incorporated in the game.

In terms of the game's contents, a recent job listing hints that "Elder Scrolls 6" may have a multiplayer content. The gaming studio listed on Zenimax a job advertisement for a game developer that has experience in developing an online multiplayer environment.

This may mean that Bethesda is looking into the option of incorporating multiplayer in the upcoming game. However, since the studio is also working on other titles, it may need the talent for its other upcoming titles instead of "Elder Scrolls 6."

Meanwhile, fans are hoping that "Elder Scrolls 6" will have a VR version. It is known that Microsoft's upcoming gaming console will support VR, but the question is: Will Bethesda make "Elder Scrolls 6" VR ready?

Bethesda already announced in E3 last year that it was working on "Fallout 4 VR," a reimaged VR version of the game for the HTC Vibe on PC. With the powerful specification in the Xbox Project Scorpio, as well as the inclination of many to VR nowadays, it is highly possible for Bethesda to incorporate this feature in "Elder Scrolls 6."

Still, fans will have to wait for the official confirmation regarding the matter.
