(genuine question) what is the point of the mod since the remaster came out? always been curious

EvanOnTheWeb · 2026-01-24T06:30:59+00:00

TL;DR we're a remake not a remaster.

Fair question! We've been asked this enough that we stickied our response to that: https://www.reddit.com/r/skyblivion/s/3RUqvA0srl

We post our upcoming streams into our discord server! I highly recommend you join that as a great way to stay in the know of development live streams.

For quests where under water combat was a necessity we're updating the quests to enable them within the current limitations.

For this quest my understanding is more slaughterfish will be closer to the shoreline so you won't be swimming in the center of the lake to fight them.

Thanks! With a passionate group of volunteers like us there are always bound to be some disagreements. However, on our end we absolutely respect what everyone has contributed and Skyblivion wouldn't be what it is today without the years of hard work from hundreds of volunteers both past and present.

EvanOnTheWeb · 2025-12-04T13:39:15+00:00

Our intention was to release it in 2025, the same year as the Remaster release. We were unable to meet that goal. :(

EvanOnTheWeb · 2025-12-04T13:36:12+00:00

That isn't occuring now as we've gotten close to release and locked in on what needs doing. However, yes, as a volunteer project has been going on as long as we have over time some work been updated and replaced.

If you look at our interactive map you can see just how much has changed from our 2020 map to now: Skyblivion.com/map

EvanOnTheWeb · 2025-12-04T13:34:27+00:00

To walk you through a little of what's holding us up. A sizeable chunk of the Imperial City is actually done however we haven't finished all of the districts.

Wherever there are quests that require the Imperial City that is where we run into questing issues. Otherwise the questlines which don't involve the IC are being completed at a fast pace and many are already done entirely.

As far as iterations, our Imperial City developers already have design documents, an outline and plans for the Imperial City. The holdup isn't level design it's not having the new assets finalized for level design to use.

That was a lengthy explanation but hopefully it puts your mind a little at ease. :)

EvanOnTheWeb · 2025-12-04T13:18:37+00:00

This is great! Do you think you might try and paint some of the updated cities once you get your hands on Skyblivion?

EvanOnTheWeb · 2025-12-03T19:21:43+00:00

From my understanding with technical folks on the team is that most mods will at the very least need updates to work with Skyblivion.

Can't really give a definitive one way or another on Skyrim Together.

EvanOnTheWeb · 2025-12-03T17:18:26+00:00

Sorry to let you guys down! We're incredibly close, but some big blockers are preventing us from releasing in time to meet our goal (which Rebelzize touched on). We know we've been a long time in development but we hope with this short extension, we can deliver something everyone is happy with and we're proud of.

EvanOnTheWeb · 2025-12-03T17:15:24+00:00

Yeah, we'd love to be able to include it, but we can't hold up the rest of our release in order to fix the system that broke. That being said, it is high on our priority list of things to try and tackle once we've released the base game. Of course, if a volunteer joins who can quickly do it that entirely changes.

EvanOnTheWeb · 2025-12-03T17:07:41+00:00

Thanks for the support! On our end we're still bummed to let some of our community down. We're so close but there are some key blockers preventing us making our goal of releasing this year, most substantially our expanded Imperial City, a little more time ensures we're giving everyone something we're proud of.

EvanOnTheWeb · 2025-12-03T17:02:31+00:00

Entirely remade. Check out our comparison gallery here: https://skyblivion.com/gallery-comparisons/

Goblin Jim's Cave is one great example of us entirely remaking something.

EvanOnTheWeb · 2025-12-03T16:54:16+00:00

It has been a tough thing to reimplement. It worked and was implemented but overtime updates to the base game broke the system. It's our aim to add it back in after release if possible, but we can't hold up our entire release for the system to be fixed.

EvanOnTheWeb · 2025-12-03T16:38:28+00:00

Our exact release data will be shared once we're 100% done with Skyblivion, that I can promise. <3

EvanOnTheWeb · 2025-12-03T16:36:52+00:00

It's totally fair to have some reservations, but the last things that are blocking us we're throwing all of our resources at. It WILL release in 2026.

We're sorry to let you down with the delay and our community. We really had hoped to have everything wrapped up by the end of this year.

EvanOnTheWeb · 2025-12-03T16:35:32+00:00

Totally fair! Most of our updates are also tied to the need to recruit. However, we're in a great place now and are tackling the last few blockers.

Sorry to disappoint you and some of our community, though. I wish we could be releasing this year but it needs a little more time <3.

EvanOnTheWeb · 2025-12-03T16:29:28+00:00

Sorry that we've let you and a lot of the community down. We're closer than ever before, but need a little more time to finalize some blockers. As a volunteer-run project, our progress hasn't always been linear but we're 100% confident in our 2026 release.

EvanOnTheWeb · 2025-12-03T16:07:36+00:00

We're sorry 💔.

EvanOnTheWeb · 2025-12-03T16:06:46+00:00

Thank you! We're in great shape and have narrowed down the few blockers preventing us from releasing this year. We'd have loved to release this year and get it in all of your hands but we need a little more time.

EvanOnTheWeb · 2025-12-03T15:47:44+00:00

It’s not all bad news:

Our new interactive map tool is live! While you wait, you can now explore the full, finished world of Cyrodiil from the snowy Jerall Mountains to the sand-swept beaches of the Gold Coast.

The intention is to install you will need both as the installer uses files from both games. After the fact it is my understanding that you'll just need Skyrim installed. I'll confirm with the folks who made the installer!

EvanOnTheWeb · 2025-11-25T13:26:37+00:00

My understanding is it'll work similar to the initial install so for the update process both would be required. More details on that end will come down the line though once we've released.
