Feb '22 email from Bethesda exec Pete Hines suggests frustration at Xbox/PC-centric strategy for team's games.
Reacting to public vow to keep Call of Duty on PlayStation: "I'm confused, is the below not the opposite of what we were just asked (told) to do with our own titles?"
"...you don't think a journo might find [Todd Howard] and press him on why the below is ok for COD or any Activision Blizzard game, but not TES6 or Starfield?"
Implication is that Elder Scrolls 6 would skip PlayStation. Hines was asked by the FTC's lawyers in court on Thursday about this and other emails with the same vibe. On the stand, he said the company is maintaining case-by-case decisions about ZeniMax/Bethesda games.
