Imagine if Elder Scrolls 6 and GTA 6 were set to drop at the same time. Which game do you think would pull in more sales? Which one do you think would become more iconic, and which would you prefer to dive into first?

Wow, is there any game that could even compete with GTA 6’s sales? It feels like it’s heading for a record!
Honestly, this isn’t even a debate. Over the last decade, every Bethesda game has been met with mixed reviews, while GTA 5 is still topping player counts. A lot of gamers have lost faith in Bethesda, especially after the debacle with Fallout 76. Sure, nostalgia will help Elder Scrolls 6 sell a decent number of copies, but there’s no way it sells anywhere close to what GTA 6 will. Rockstar still has a ton of goodwill in the community, and let’s be real: people are way more excited for versatility and fun chaos of GTA over fantasy RPGs these days.
Fake news, dude.
The question of which would sell more really hinges on pricing. If Elder Scrolls 6 comes in at a lower price, it might outperform GTA 6 due to affordability. That said, GTA is a prevalence these days, so I still lean towards it being the top seller regardless.
It really comes down to personal preference. If you’re into medieval fantasy, exploration, and the whole Elder Scrolls vibe, you’ll lean towards ES6. But if you’re all in for crime, cars, and chaos, then GTA 6 is where it’s at. Both games are iconic in their own rights, but comparing them isn’t straightforward since they’re in entirely different genres.
Honestly, there’s no contest. GTA 6 is going to destroy sales, probably 10 times more than Elder Scrolls 6. It’s just how the gaming landscape is right now.
Considering Elder Scrolls 6 is rumored to be on the same engine as Starfield, I’m not expecting a significant leap from Skyrim. If anything, it might struggle to outdo it.
GTA 6 is going to crush it, no doubt! It’s all about that freedom and chaotic gameplay!
That’s not entirely fair, though. Bethesda did give us gems like Wolfenstein 2 and Indiana Jones. And while Starfield wasn’t groundbreaking, it’s not as terrible as people say. Plus, Rockstar has had its share of bad games too, like GTA: The Trilogy.
