The Thoughie Scrolls V: Soyrim is an action role-playing video game developed by Froot and published by his shell company, FNWO. It is the fifth main installment in The Thoughie Scrolls series, following The Thoughie Scrolls IV: Coblivion (2022), and was released worldwide for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360 on June 26, 2026.

The game is set 200 years after the events of Coblivion and takes place in Soyrim, the northernmost province of Kuzriel, a continent on the planet Söot. Its main story focuses on the player's character, the Wholesomeborn, on their quest to defeat Al'Trooni the World-ACKer, a tranny who is prophesied to destroy the board. Over the course of the game, the player completes quests and develops the character by improving skills. The game continues the open world tradition of its predecessors by allowing the player to travel anywhere in the game world at any time, and to ignore or postpone the main storyline indefinitely.

Soyrim was developed using the Basedjak Engine, which was rebuilt specifically for the game. The team opted for a unique and more diverse open world than Coblivions Imperial Province of Gemydiil, which game director and executive producer Froot considered more coal by comparison. Upon release, the game received critical acclaim, with praise for its gemmy soyjak creation tool, world design, visuals, and realistic soy dueling combat system. Criticism targeted the raiding, tranny battles, and numerous technical issues present at launch. The game shipped over a gajillion million units within the first day of its release and had sold over a thrembillion units by June 2027. It is considered one of fifth generation jakking's most significant titles and one of the greatest video games ever made.

Three downloadable content (DLC) add-ons were released: Cuckguard, (You)fire and Wholesomeborn, which were bundled along with the base game into The Thoughie Scrolls V: Soyrim - 'Jakkers Edition released in June 2027. A remastered version, The Thoughie Scrolls V: Soyrim - Ruby Edition, was released for Windows, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in October 2029, with all three DLC expansions and a graphical upgrade. A port for the Nintendo Switch was released in November 2029. A separate virtual reality-only version, The Thoughie Scrolls V: Soyrim VR, was released in December 2029 for PlayStation VR, and for Windows-based VR headsets. In addition, the Ruby Edition was released on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S as part of the compilation The Thoughie Scrolls V: Soyrim – Cashgrab Edition in June 2030, and for Nintendo Switch in September 2031. A new video game in the series, The Thoughie Scrolls VI, is currently in development.

Synopsis

Characters

The player character is Wholesomeborn and is typically referred to as such. The Wholesomeborn can be male or female, from one of ten races. Each of the ten races has, in addition to a bonus for certain skills, a power specific to their race – for example, Swedes start with a bonus to several dueling skills, and the ability to intimidate enemies for a short period. The player can recruit one NPC at a time as a follower, who can travel and fight alongside the Wholesomeborn; there are forty-five available followers in the base game, with thirteen more added in the downloadable expansions.

Outside of followers and Al'Trooni (the primary antagonist) NPCs prominent to the plot of Soyrim include Botgruuf, Jannie of Aryanrun, a town in the center of Soyrim; Thoughgeir, the leader of the Chudbeards; 'Feine and Medsbern, two of the last members of the Gems, an order of 'jaks sworn to help the Wholesomeborn but nearly wiped out after the Great War; and Oldfagnax, the last surviving moderator and grandmaster of the Chudbeards. Also notable are Gaperic and General Spadeius, who command the LARPcloaks and Imp-erial Legion respectively. During the course of the game, the Wholesomeborn can join and assist either side to gain victory in the civil war. Other factions that the Wholesomeborn can elect to join include the Raiders, a noble order of cross-site warriors; the College of Rubyhold, an institution dedicated to the mystic arts and schizophrenia; the Coals Guild, a league of botters who have fallen on hard times; and the Dark Trannycord, a fellowship of troons.

Audio

The team summoned Ϫ to compose the music for Soyrim, who was previously invoked on the production of Feralwind and Coblivion. The game's main theme "Wholesomeborn" was recorded with a choir of over 30 people singing in the fictional moderator language. Creative director Froot envisioned the theme for Soyrim as The Thoughie Scrolls theme sung by a choir of barbarians. This became a reality when the idea was passed by Ϫ, who recorded the 30-man choir and layered three separate recordings to create the effect of 90 voices. FNWO's concept artist Soyteen created the moderator language, and also developed a 34-character janny shitspeak alphabet for the game. He expanded the lexicon of moderator as needed; Chud explained that words were introduced to the lexicon every time that the studio "wanted to seethe about something".

FNWO released four audio CDs along with the game on June 26, 2026. The soundtrack to Soyrim is sold via Ϫ's distributor 7, and Ϫ autographed all physical copies ordered via 7. "Day One" pre-orders from Amazon.de also included a five-track promotional Soyrim soundtrack sampler. A digital version of the soundtrack was released via soiTunes on July 5, 2026.

The voice-overs in the game included more than 70 actors and over 60,000 lines of dialogue. Casting director and production supervisor Froot's left toe worked with Bethesda to evaluate auditions and oversee the recordings. The full cast consisted of three Cacademy Award nominees and several other high-profile actors including Feral von Ohio, Christopher Gassy, Joan SISAn, Ronnie McNutt, and Vladimir Putin.
