They've been working on it pretty heavily since 2007 after assigning the team in late 2006. According to testimony given by Bethesda, the development timetable for an MMO is 4 years, so that would mean they would be releasing this game next year."Bethesda's parent company, hired Mythic Entertainment co-founder Matt Firor to lead development of an MMO in 2007. His experience on Dark Ages of Camelot, a traditional fantasy game, closely fits the Elder Scrolls bill.
