Latest Steam announcements
- As Skyblivion's launch approaches, the team is looking for help to get the word out - 15 September 2026
The gears are still grinding on Skyblivion , the massive mod that aims to recreate The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion in the newer, prettier technology of The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim Special Edition. A release date still hasn't been announced, but it's definitely getting closer—and once again, the dev team is asking for help... Read more.
- Modding the Khajiit lands into Oblivion is still the cat's meow - 14 August 2026
I’m supposed to be stealing keys from several merchants in Leyawiin, but things haven’t exactly gone to plan. I accidentally wore my Grey Fox mask, a piece of armour that immediately marks me as a wanted criminal to every guard I pass. Even after finally sorting out my armour situation and making my way into Southern Books, the shopkeeper Bugak gro-Bol isn’t in bed when I enter and won’t stop following me around and trying to kick me out of his shop, because it’s midnight and I look like exactly the kind of shady character who might be breaking in to steal from him...

- Elder Scrolls 6 is a ways off, but who needs it? The world's most specific game jam is back with 40 playable entries based off Oblivion's wonderful/awful persuade-o-wheel - 11 May 2026
Remember Oblivion's wheel system for grinding NPC disposition? You probably do, since a very popular remastered version of that game came out a single year ago. But if not then, well, you Skyrim kids don't know what you're missing. Where the most recent Elder Scrolls (the one that's 15 years old), only let you affect your relationship with NPCs by completing quests and joining factions, Oblivion would let you affect everyone's opinion of you granularly, via a wheel-based minigame you could drop into mid-conversation...

- 'There's always the chance s**t hits the fan and we suffer another major setback,' Skyblivion lead says about the possibility of another delay, but 'from what I see internally I am pretty optimistic' - 3 April 2026
I wondered, last week, if the new call for aid put forth by the Skyblivion development team was a sign that the long-awaited mega mod—the one recreating The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion in the newer tech of The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim Special Edition—might be delayed again. It was supposed to be out in 2025 but was pushed into '26 at the last minute, and to me this new update made it sound like there's still an awful lot left to do for a game that's supposed to be out within the next eight months... Read more.
- Skyblivion dev team is once again putting out a call for 'experienced mod authors and developers' to help get it finished, and it sure sounds like there's a lot left to do for a mod that's supposed to be out this year - 31 March 2026
Skyblivion, the massive mod that aims to rebuild all of The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion in the swanky new(er) tech of The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim Special Edition, is once again asking for help. A message posted on Nexus Mods (via RPS ) says the dev team is "on the hunt for the final, vital members of their development team to bring this massive undertaking to life.".. Read more.
- Skyblivion's first major dev update since Oblivion Remastered makes its case as more of a full remake—including a mega dungeon based off a legendary bit of cut content - 3 August 2025
The developers of the Skyblivion remake mod for Skyrim have just released their first major development update since the surprise release of Oblivion Remastered, and they seemed keen to prove how their project stands apart as a more full-on remake of the 2006 RPG... Read more.
- Oblivion guru found a way to save the Emperor and his bodyguard in the original game, getting the drop on his assassin like the fantasy secret service - 16 May 2025
The YouTuber known as Bacon is, as our own Ted Litchfield wrote in an article yesterday, the undisputed king of Oblivion meme videos . If you've ever cracked up at a viral video of Oblivion's unmatched comic timing, odds are good it was a Bacon video you watched... Read more.
- Oblivion Remastered hero returns to the game's golden age by spending 7 hours arranging books just to topple them like dominoes - 14 May 2025
Oblivion players of a certain vintage will recall that, after the original game's release, there were various community trends based around what you could do with the game's physics system: specifically, just how elaborate of a domino run could you make?.. Read more.
- Oblivion Remastered mod finally fixes the loot levelling, so no longer do you need to complete quests then wait forever to hand them in - 7 May 2025
s well as the enormous visual glow-up, Oblivion Remastered went out of its way to tweak elements of the original game that were just a little annoying. So you don't have to grind minor skills anymore in order to level efficiently, and praise the Nine can now actually run through this vast open world. But one crime remained: levelled loot... Read more.
- Bethesda gives full-throated shout-out to Skyblivion fan remake after giving the whole dev team free Oblivion Remastered keys: 'I think what they're doing is very special' - 1 May 2025
I'll be honest, before the release of Oblivion Remastered, I thought it and Skyblivion—the fan mod that rebuilds Oblivion in Skyrim Special Edition—were diametrically opposed. This was zero-sum game territory, surely? If one gets mega-popular it can only be to the detriment of the other. Winner takes all. Only one leaves alive... Read more.
- How to begin The Shivering Isles in Oblivion and the remaster - 29 April 2025
The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered comes with all of the DLC from the original game, and that includes the Shivering Isles expansion. While there's already a ton of stuff to do in Cyrodiil, Shivering Isles adds over 30 hours of additional quests and exploration in a whole other map zone... Read more.
- Oblivion's forgotten goblin wars system, which saw gobbos battling each other all over Cyrodiil, emerged from designing a single quest: 'I figured it wouldn't be a lot more work to make this systemic' - 27 April 2025
Oblivion's radiant AI system is mainly remembered for its impeccable, if entirely unintentional, comedic timing, producing non-sequiturs and bizarre NPC interactions all over Cyrodiil. Players are currently discovering this all over again in Bethesda's immensely popular remaster . But one of the system's lesser-known effects is how it also influenced goblin behaviour... Read more.
- Nexus Mods decides to allow an Oblivion Remastered mod that changes 'body type' options to male/female, declares it's not 'a battleground for broader cultural or political debates' - 25 April 2025
One of the very, very small changes in Oblivion Remastered is a switch in the character creator from "male" and "female" bodies, as it was in the original, to "body type 1" and "body type 2." It's the sort of thing that would likely go entirely unnoticed were it not for the distressingly predictable explosion of outrage from the usual corners of toxic gamerdom—and, in short order, the creation of a mod that brought back the original male/female body options... Read more.
- Don't worry, Oblivion Remastered's NPCs are still charmingly ugly, they're just ugly in next-gen ways - 23 April 2025
The great circle has finally closed. Way back in 2016 I was given a task: find the ugliest NPC in The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion . Today I'm setting out to do it again in Newblivion, or as it's bafflingly and officially called, Oblivion Remastered ... Read more.
- How to sell stolen items in Oblivion - 23 April 2025
Working out how to sell stolen items in Oblivion is one of your first steps as an enterprising thief or regular old RPG player. Honestly, even when I'm playing a good character I still steal like an absolute menace, and I'm certain I'm not alone in that. Being a thief in Oblivion is one of the most lucrative ways to play, and perhaps the most rewarding thief experience in the entire series, considering merchants have unlimited gold... Read more.
- How to join the Thieves Guild in Oblivion - 23 April 2025
The quest to join the Thieves Guild in Oblivion is one of the funnest faction introductions in the series, as you follow rumours of the Gray Fox to a mysterious garden, and compete with fellow thieves to steal a diary before the night ends. "Why join the Thieves Guild?" you may well ask, given you can simply steal whatever you want anyway... Read more.
- The best birthsigns in Oblivion Remastered - 23 April 2025
Deciding on the best birthsign for your character in Oblivion Remastered can be a little tricky. You've barely murdered a few rats and goblins, and yet you're already being asked to define what type of character you want to play in the game. Luckily, there are a few birthsigns that stand above the others... Read more.
- You don't need an Oblivion Remaster, you need Boblivion, the mod that makes Oblivion Bob - 23 April 2025
It's Oblivion time, folks. No, not March 20—Oblivion's original release date. No, not one of those weekends where I wake up and stare at the ceiling for three hours, either. It's finally time for the much-anticipated and maddening The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion Remaster, which was leaked and rumoured for so long that it was starting to drive fans off the rails ... Read more.
- Bethesda gave Oblivion Remastered game keys to the entire Skyblivion development team and 'made it clear that they have no intention of shutting down our project' - 22 April 2025
Fan-made remakes of popular games are a risky thing. You never know when you're going to sink years of your life into a passion project, only to eat a cease and desist letter from an expensive lawyer representing a faceless corporate overlord that forces you to either change it up or shut it down entirely . That seemed like a real risk for Skyblivion, the ambitious, long-running effort to recreate Oblivion in the Skyrim engine, especially after it became clear that Bethesda was working on its own official Oblivion remaster... Read more.
- Where to find the Skeleton Key in Oblivion so you can stop breaking all your lockpicks - 22 April 2025
Lockpicking in The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion can be a hassle since it's so different from the lockpicking minigame in later Bethesda RPGs. There's one item that can make your life a whole lot easier: the Skeleton Key. If you're fed up with breaking lockpicks all the time, the Skeleton Key is what you need... Read more.
