Skyrim boss says Xbox 3 and PS4 won’t be here till 2014

Posted By | On 03rd, Aug. 2011

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim director Todd Howard believes the Xbox 720/3 and the PS3 won’t be here next year, neither will they be here in 2013.  In an interview with gaming mag PS3M, when he was asked when the successors to the HD twins will be here, Todd Howard said he thought “consumers are happy” with what they have right now.

“I think it’s going to be a while still, I really do. I think consumers are happy with the current ones, there’s a lot you can do with them,” he said. “So I don’t think it’s coming next year or the year after.”

When he was asked about his earlier comments of thinking of releasing Skyrim on next gen consoles, he said: “We want [Skyrim] to be fresh. We don’t want it to feel, visually or technically, ‘Oh this is Fallout 3’ or ‘this is Oblivion’ And if we couldn’t do that we would have waited.”
