Another Skyblivion dev diary shows off the new dungeons and expanded cities Oblivion Remastered never bothered with

It’s a REMAKE, claims lone somewhat antiaircraft video

August 2025 present has arsenic galore Skyblivion developer diaries arsenic determination are modern The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion reimaginings: two, which successful some cases remains a weirdly precocious number. But portion past week’s Finishing Skyblivion focused connected 1 volunteer’s attempts astatine getting the ambitious Cyrodiil-in-Skyrim mod implicit the line, this different vid makes a precise circumstantial transportation to those whose involvement whitethorn person been diverted by Bethesda’s authoritative Oblivion Remastered, showcasing however Skyblivion looks to much aggressively grow and rework the archetypal RPG.

Perhaps astir emblematic of this attack is the (re?)addition of Sutch, a metropolis adjacent Cyrodiil’s occidental seashore that Bethesda planned for OG Oblivion earlier cutting it – prevention for the tiny ruin of Fort Sutch, which you tin sojourn successful some the archetypal and the remaster – precocious successful development. Skyblivion recreates it arsenic a acold bigger, if inactive mostly wrecked, castle municipality that’s been occupied by bandit bastards, and which you’ll beryllium capable to research successful full.

A abbreviated locomotion south, the much acquainted metropolis of Anvil looks to person grown considerably, its cardinal harbour present sitting successful a overmuch wider basin with added docks and marketplace areas. Daedric hellscape The Deadlands, meanwhile, is getting divided into 2 biomes: 1 that matches the original’s lava lakes and another, stormier portion inspired by the Deadlands of The Elder Scrolls Online.

Skyblivion evidently isn’t averse to making cosmetic upgrades arsenic well. The diary besides reveals caller designs for respective of Oblivion’s unsocial weapons, galore of which volition propulsion successful immoderate peculiar animations for your trouble. I desperately anticipation these support the charmingly stiff bone-janking of Skyrim, arsenic the default animations look to. But the video is mostly anxious to emphasise the much applicable differences betwixt the mod and the original, which by extension, are besides differences betwixt the mod and the remaster.

Personally, my involvement successful Skyblivion has remained intact, adjacent with Oblivion Remastered having been announced and released successful the clip since this dev diary’s past entry. This is partially due to the fact that show headaches, and that 1 quest wherever you get talked into watching idiosyncratic bash workplace chores for six hours, made my clip with the remaster unexpectedly shortlived. That said, I bash similar the thought of exploding houses by pointing astatine them. I’d inquire the Skyblivion squad to instrumentality thing similar, but fixed the full constituent of this diary, they astir apt wouldn’t beryllium precise blessed astir it.
