This week, as we have previously speculated on NER since Bethesda’s buy out, industry insider, Jeff Grubb (VentureBeat), claimed that both Starfield, and The Elder Scrolls 6 will be Xbox ‘exclusive’ titles. The statement comes as Bethesda’s Pete Hines (SVP Marketing and Communications) made some lukewarm statements where he wasn’t specifically shutting out the PlayStation…
