There are no new playable races. The creators are trying to keep the lore of the game the same throughout, for continuity, which will allow The Elder Scrolls series to prosper well beyond the average game "shelf life".

The main races in the game are:

  • Argonian
  • Altmer (High Elf)
  • Bosmer (Wood Elf)
  • Breton
  • Dunmer (Dark Elf)
  • Dwemer (unplayable)
  • Falmer (unplayable)
  • Imperial
  • Khajiit
  • Nord
  • Orismer (Orc)
  • Redguard
  • Snow Elf (unplayable)

Two other sub-races are Vampires and Werewolves, but these are optionally applied to the player, if they wish, later in the game. If you have the Dragonborn DLC, the Werebear race is added, but you cannot play as this. Any of the main races ambove can be either a vampire, werewolf or werebear.

However, the modding community has created mods for the game that add different playable races in the game. Or allow you to play as a race which is originally unplayable, such as Snow Elf. You can find these mods, for the PC version of the game, in the official Skyrim modding community.
