The team responsible for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim at Bethesda are now moving on after supporting the game for 18 months post release. In a blog post on the official Bethblog they have now announced that they won't create further content for the game - even if patches will still roll out when needed.

"Skyrim has been a labor of love for us since we started designing it in 2006. We never imagined it would become the phenomenon it has. And that is because of you, the fans. It was all of you who made it a success. We can't thank you enough for embracing the game, spreading the word, and making it your own.

For the last year and a half we've been working on new content for Skyrim; from the game updates, Creation Kit, Steam Workshop, Kinect support, to DLCs. Parts of our team have also been in pre-production on our next major project, and that game is at the point where it requires the studio's full attention to make it our biggest and best work yet."

One can only speculate what's next, but surely part of the team is already heavily invested in the next project. Did we hear Fallout 4? No? Okay. Wishful thinking then.

"Games are the world's best entertainment because they can do what other forms cannot - fill you with the wonder of exploration and the pride of accomplishment. We look forward to sharing our next adventure with you."
