Elder Scrolls fans can put their curiosity to rest since Bethesda has found an interesting way to engage with its player community while shedding light on the upcoming Elder Scrolls 6.

Unlike Rockstar which has not shared anything about its upcoming GTA 6, Bethesda has opted for a unique approach to give updates, moving away from the conventional path of trailers and interviews. Instead, it will be conducting a silent auction benefiting a charitable organization Make A Wish Mid-Atlantic.
Elder Scrolls 6 will let you design an NPC

Bethesda is giving one lucky player the opportunity to customize and design an NPC in the game through their charitable silent auction initiative which not only builds excitement and anticipation but also adds massive emotional value due to it being attached to a charitable cause.
This is the first public update about ES6 after a long time and players are already excited to know more. This update also indicates that the game is indeed in development and will soon be hitting the market. Earlier there were speculations about the game being delayed inevitably.
The way Bethesda seems to be communicating with its player community is a unique approach and adds a sense of mystery to the game’s progress. This unconventional way of building anticipation might just work in its favor in the long run. People have a lot of expectations from Bethesda to improve upon the most celebrated features in Skyrim.
We’re offering one lucky winner the chance to create an NPC for The Elder Scrolls VI to benefit Make-A-Wish Mid-Atlantic.
Winning bid will go directly to Make-A-Wish so they can keep granting wishes.

Giving players the opportunity to design an NPC for the game increases their emotional connection with the game and enables them to involve themselves more intimately with the development process.
Bethesda’s new approach has set a unique example

Bethesda has adapted to a unique approach for giving updates about Elder Scrolls 6, which is a highly anticipated game that had gone radio silent for many years. The recently release Avowed is a direct competitor of ES6.
The recent update breathes fresh air into the lungs of its fans as they can now expect the game to be released sooner than expected. This might just be a start to the game’s marketing campaign and players might be seeing a lot more of the game soon. Bethesda is yet to release things of more substance like a gameplay or story trailer
Elder Scrolls 6 seems to be going in the right direction and if things stay the way they are, the game might soon be able to see the light of day. What do you think about it? Let us know in the comments below.
