Described as 'Skyrim with cats', this upcoming dark fantasy ARPG may just be the distraction you need whilst you wait for The Elder Scrolls 6.
Earlier this week saw Bethesda’s Todd Howard reveal that the highly anticipated The Elder Scrolls 6 will not be released any time soon which makes the Grand Theft Auto VI delay look quite tame in comparison.
With The Elder Scrolls 6 being one of the most anticipated AAA releases in recent years, the delay has hit fans hard, especially when you consider that it has been well over a decade since its latest entry, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, was released.
Nevertheless, perfection takes time and in the meantime, you may want to check out this underrated TES VI alternative.

Compared to Skyrim but with a whole lot more cats, Kristala is a 2024 dark fantasy ARPG featuring challenging combat, fluid parkour, and deep exploration.
Developed by Astral Clocktower Studios, Kristala will see you master the art of the ancient magic of the Sacred Six Krystals as you uncover the source of a mysterious curse in a thrilling, story-driven adventure.
Kristala prides itself on punishing and satisfying combat with players able to dodge, block, and defect attacks whilst combining both light and heavy attacks.
Whether you utilise your powerful arsenal of weapons or wield up to 16 equipped spells at a time, you will be able to easily defeat any obstacle put in front of you.
Not only that but in the world of Kristala, you will take on both the appearance and abilities of a feline and this too can aid you in battle as you take down undead enemies, tortured spirits, and behemoth bosses.
Using your feline wits and agility, you will be able to navigate the map easily and with new traversal abilities unlocked as you progress, it won’t be long before you scale the tallest buildings or sneak your way into previously unexplored areas.
“Use your arsenal of skills to explore the diverse, dark-fantasy world of Ailur, seeking out written journal pickups, impactful NPC interactions, and unique Kristal Memory items to unravel Kristala's detailed story and lore,” the official description reads.
Create and customise your own unique feline character and get ready to embark on a dark mystery unlike any you have encountered before.
Kristala is currently available in early access on Steam and PlayStation right now with plans for it to also launch on the Xbox Series X/S and Nintendo Switch 1 & 2.
So if you want to experience Skyrim with cats, look no further.
