Bethesda’s relationship with the Skyblivion team is evolving into a cooperative venture rather than a competitive one. Instead of treating them as rivals, Bethesda recently invited the modders of Skyblivion to visit their offices. The project lead, Rebelzize, expressed his astonishment at the heartfelt support from the Bethesda team.

“Seeing the excitement from the Bethesda team was absolutely unreal.”
(Translation: “Seeing the excitement from the Bethesda team was absolutely unreal.”)

Bethesda’s gesture began even before Oblivion Remastered’s announcement. As speculation about a remake circulated, Rebelzize publicly expressed love and respect for Bethesad. Following that, Bethesda shared game keys with the entire Skyblivion team. The ongoing support from Bethesda illustrates their commitment to fostering a collaborative gaming community.

Skyblivion, a fan project overhauling the classic Oblivion game in Skyrim’s engine, aims to capture the original’s essence while enhancing the experience with modern graphics. Despite the release of the Remastered version of Oblivion, Skyblivion’s launch is still anticipated for 2025. Rebelzize reassured fans that the project remains on track, indicating excitement about the new developments.
