IKEA is Coming to The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim and Fans Are All Saying the Same Thing
IKEA is partnering up with Skyrim in an unexpected collaboration that has fans making the same joke about The Elder Scrolls 6.
In an unexpected collaboration, IKEA is teaming up with The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, much to the amusement of fans. On September 2, the official IKEA accounts for Ireland and the United Kingdom posted a promotional video on Instagram featuring Skyrim memorabilia scattered across a snowy mountainside. Among the items were rune-inscribed tools, pots, swords, books, wheels of cheese, and a Kallax 4x2 shelf.
The video ends with the date September 9, 2026, and the message "Coming to the Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim." The caption reads, "A Creation coming to The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim." It is currently unclear how this collaboration will manifest. Will players be able to purchase IKEA furniture inspired by Skyrim, or will Skyrim characters be available for purchase at IKEA stores?
Either way, fans agree that they are excited about the collaboration. One X user joked, "New Elder Scrolls? No. New Skyrim furniture that will break down before the new Elder Scrolls comes out? Yes." Another Instagram user joked, "Heard they re reforming the Dawnguard. Vampire hunters or something, in the old IKEA near Riften. Might consider joining up, myself."
IKEA has recently launched a furniture line specifically for gamers called The Yxstaby Collection, which was displayed at gamescom and features items inspired by the Xbox controller. Carl Ledbetter, Xbox's Head of Design, explained that the collaboration stemmed from shared design philosophies between Xbox and IKEA. Fans will have to wait for more details on The Elder Scrolls 6, which recently received an update after Xbox CEO Asha Sharma praised its scale, grandeur, and story during a public demonstration.
