New 'Elder Scrolls' planned for 2010

Bethesda has revealed that the next Elder Scrolls title will arrive in 2010.

The Fallout 3 publisher announced that the next instalment in its popular RPG series will be available for Xbox 360, Playstation 3 and PC, with no plans for a release on Nintendo consoles.

"At the moment we're not that interested in the Wii," said Bethesda publishing executive Paul Oughton. "We're going to stick to PS3, Xbox 360 and PC. We'll continue to pursue three or four titles a year and go for big titles."

Although he acknowledged that the market for DS and Wii has opened up opportunities for publishers, Oughton said he expects it to hit saturation point in the near future.

"Nintendo bought new products in with vast amounts of marketing money to launch these into the minds of the consumer and made a market for them. Every other publisher then very quickly developed DS and Wii products and we're getting to saturation now," he said.
