Oh dear, the rumor mill about the console version of The Elder Scrolls Online is brewing! Allegedly, the following text appeared this morning on the official page of ESO.
When does The Elder Scrolls Online officially launch? The Elder Scrolls Online officially launched on April 4, 2014 on PC and Mac. While it has become clear that our planned June release of the console versions isn’t going to be possible, we have made great progress, we have concluded that we’ll need about six more months to ensure we deliver the experience our fans expect and deserve. For additional information on the delay, please see this blog post (link).
Summary: The developers have realized that it is currently impossible to release the console version for TESO and that the release is delayed by approximately 6 months. The initial reactions were disappointment and frustration, but then it got mysterious: The post was deleted and allegedly the comments on the official social media platforms were removed. Additionally, there have been bans of some users in the forum because they expressed their frustration and resorted to verbal blows.
Unfortunately, Bethesda and ZeniMax Online have not yet commented on this, but as soon as there are any updates, we will keep you informed! Until there is an official statement from Bethesda or ZeniMax Online, this news should be considered a rumor.
Who among you is eagerly waiting for the console version? Please raise your virtual hand! 😉

[intense_testimony_text]If this is indeed true news that just came out too early, it would be very sad for all fans. But the wave that has been initiated because of this is insane. It’s a shame that there is no official statement on this yet! [/intense_testimony_text]

Update:
It is now certain: The console version for ESO will be delayed!
It has become clear to us that we will not be able to adhere to our planned release date for the console versions in June. Even though we have made great progress, we will still need about six months to provide our fans with the experience they expect and deserve.
