Restores a lost city from Oblivion, 19 years later, reimagining and enhancing the least favored aspect of the original RPG with a landscape patterned after The Elder Scrolls Online.
The fan-made remake of Oblivion, Skyblivion, is bringing exciting changes and additions to the Deadlands biomes, new enemies, and the number of worlds behind the Oblivion Gates.
Skyblivion splits the original monotonous Deadlands into two distinct biomes: The Burn and The Sever. The Burn, a land of fire and brimstone, remains as the familiar hellish landscape from Oblivion. On the other hand, The Sever, inspired by The Elder Scrolls Online's version, is a swampy, acidic, and stormy eastern half of the Deadlands. This division aims to provide a more dynamic and hostile environment.
With the addition of The Severed biome, new or altered enemy behaviors are expected, adding more variety and challenge. New enemy types or changes to existing ones that fit the atmosphere of The Sever are hinted at, promising a more engaging combat experience.
Skyblivion also increases the number of planes (worlds) behind the Oblivion Gates from the original seven in Oblivion to eleven. This expansion aims to reduce repetition and increase diversity in gameplay experiences beyond the gates.
The city of Anvil is getting a significant rework in Skyblivion. Based on original concept art, the city will feature an expanded harbor, new docks, and the relocation of the shop Lelles' Quality Merchandise into the city. A new alchemy store called Tide and Tonic will also be added, further enriching the game's world.
A city named Sutch, originally planned as the eighth city of Cyrodiil but cut down to a single fort in the original game, is being fully fleshed out in Skyblivion. Sutch will have walls, paved pathways, people, and a Patron Divine at the Chapel of Kynareth.
The developer, Rebelzize, has released a development update for the fan-made Oblivion remake. They plan to roll credits on both Oblivion Remastered and Skyblivion eventually. However, no specific release date for Oblivion Remastered has been announced.
Skyblivion is a full-scale remake of Oblivion, reimagining the game from the ground up to meet modern RPG standards. If time permits, Rebelzize plans to rework as many of the worlds behind the Oblivion Gates as possible in Skyblivion.
Despite the release of Oblivion Remastered, Skyblivion is not comparable to it as it is a full remake, not a simple remaster. Skyblivion is still scheduled to release on PC sometime this year.
New enemies have been added to the Deadlands in Skyblivion, including Scamps, Clannfear, Daedroth, Spider Daedra, and Atronach. The central harbor basin of Anvil in Skyblivion more closely resembles the original plans for the city.
These changes collectively aim to address the repetitiveness of the original game's design while adding fresh experiences and environments for players. Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting fan-made project.

Skyblivion's expansion also includes the addition of new games like MMOs and RPGs, bringing a diverse range of gaming experiences. The developer, Rebelzize, is utilising technology to create immersive TV-like content, allowing players to immerse themselves even further in the game.
The new action-packed battles in Skyblivion promise to engage players, with deals on console versions offering attractive price cuts, making the game accessible to a wider audience.
As Skyblivion brings exciting news about its innovative changes, it's clear that this fan-made project is set to revolutionise the way we play games.
The introduction of new games, immersive content, and affordable deals on consoles makes Skyblivion an unmissable opportunity for gamers of all types.
