RAIZA, a pixel art animator and character designer, is currently developing "The Indie Scrolls," an RPG inspired by "The Elder Scrolls" series.
Development is progressing steadily even after the official title of *TES6* was announced
The “The Elder Scrolls” series is a line of open-world RPGs set in the fantasy world created by Bethesda.Although the latest installment, *The Elder Scrolls VI*, was announced in June 2018, it wasn’t until November 2026—about eight and a half years later—that its official title, *The Elder Scrolls VI: Sentinel* (hereinafter *TES6*), was finally revealed.
With even the release date of this latest installment still unknown, RAIZA has been sharing progress updates on *The Indie Scrolls*, a project he launched with the goal of “developing his own version of *TES* until *TES6* is released.”
The project began on March 14, 2026. So far, it has been revealed that the game is inspired by *The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall* and uses Unreal Engine 5. Various videos have been released, showcasing everything from land and underwater combat to interactions with cats.
Development has continued steadily even after the official title of “TES6” was announced, and on November 12, 2026—the day after the 15th anniversary of the latest numbered entry in the series, “The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim” (hereinafter “Skyrim”)—the project entered its 222nd day.Footage of a battle with a beautiful female knight was shared on social media, garnering significant attention with 95,000 views on X.
Incidentally, regarding Bethesda’s official post for *Skyrim*’s 15th anniversary, despite calls from the community for further updates on *TES6*, the company posted that “there are no major announcements, and no new information on *TES6* will be released for the time being.”In fact, on that same day, the only announcement was regarding a limited-time bundle of content currently being streamed by certified creators on the *Skyrim* Special (Anniversary) Edition’s “Creation Club.”
