A leaked document released in connection with the FTC v. Microsoft trial has unveiled an old ZeniMax release schedule that includes several unannounced games. The schedule includes titles such as Dishonored 3, a Ghostwire: Tokyo sequel, Doom Year Zero, and remasters of Fallout 3 and Oblivion.
The leaked document, initially shared by Wario64, shows that besides the already known titles like Starfield and Elder Scrolls 6, there are several games that have yet to be announced. Among them is Dishonored 3, contradicting recent reports that Bethesda turned down the game in favor of developing Deathloop. The leak also reveals a planned sequel to Ghostwire: Tokyo, indicating that it was approved while the original game was still in development.
Furthermore, the leaked document unveils a new Doom title called Year Zero, which appears to be a significant release as it is accompanied by numerous DLC listings. Additionally, fans of Bethesda’s older RPGs will be excited to learn that remasters of Fallout 3 and Oblivion are also on the schedule.
It’s important to note that the release schedule predates the COVID-19 pandemic, with all the games listed aiming for their original release dates. For instance, Starfield is expected in 2021, and Elder Scrolls 6 is still projected for 2024. However, given that most of the unannounced titles are scheduled for the financial year 2024, it is likely that we won’t see these games until 2026 or even later.
While there is a possibility that some of these titles have been quietly cancelled or put on hold since the leak, fans remain hopeful that they are still in development behind closed doors.
