With The Elder Scrolls 6 still far into the future fans have been taking matters into their own hands with projects like Skyblivion.
Get ready for the highly anticipated Skyblivion mod for Skyrim! Discover the details of its development and major announcements
Holy shit they're adding AI to make the NPCs as realistic as possible? TWENTY-FOUR new tracks for the soundtrack??? 😯
Well it looks like I may just beat the fighter's guild, mages guild and main quest after all 😤
Skyblivion remakes Oblivion in Skyrim's engine, and the huge mod is nearing completion, but the team could use some assistance.
The rumored remake of Bethesda Softworks' action role-playing game, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, may be set for release as early as 2025.
This is specifically for console players. There's no way anything they do with this would even touch the two decades of mod work to be had here.
I hope they at least update the combat. Even Skyrim's was terrible and dated when it released, and that combat was a marked improvement over Oblivion.
So, if the rumors are true, then they might be using an older BGS game's structure to remake/replicate in UE5, so that, that build or a derivative of that UE build can be used for future BGS entries (likely FO:5, since ES6 development is already underway using a new Creation Engine build).
Hence there was another leak of New Vegas remake in UE. Likely similar plannings.
But all rumors and leaks ... only time will tell.
Would be totally down for this! Have very fond memories of Oblivion. Still holds a special place in my heart.
