Skyblivion, The Fan Remake Of Oblivion In Skyrim's Engine, Will Launch In 2025

The ambitious fan project made entirely through volunteer effort is still on track for a 2025 release date

This video, like TESRenewal's previous update six months ago, includes a lengthy quest walkthrough--The Fighter's Quest this time--that highlights just how much work the group has put into the project. In addition to improved lighting and assets at higher resolutions, TESRenewal added a new leveling system, changed boss encounters, altered enemy scaling, and even expanded locations. They've also made it possible for Oblivion's classes and spellcrafting to work in Skyrim's engine and have incorporated fan feedback throughout development.

Work on some of Oblivion's cities remains incomplete, but TESRenewal said that bug fixes and optimization are their main priorities in the coming months. When Skyblivion does launch, its updates will apply to the entirety of Oblivion, including all side quests and locations. Skyblivion itself will be free, though TESRenewal said you'll have to own Skyrim: Special Edition, Oblivion, and all of Oblivion's DLC for the Skyblivion installer to work. Oblivion and its DLC are available on Steam.
