Summary
- Skyblivion just announced that it's launching on GOG later this year.
- GOG is also rolling out a "one-click mods" initiative, making it easier than ever to get stuck into these big projects.
Skyblivion, the fan-made remake of Oblivion, built inside of Skyrim's updated Creation engine, is finally nearing the end of its 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:over-a-decade-long development. The team has reiterated that it's still on track to launch later this year, but as it's too big for Nexus Mods to host, the community has long wondered where it will launch. Today, we got an answer.
"GOG has graciously allowed us to bring Skyblivion to their launcher," . "We're still evaluating all the possible ways (and launchers) to get ꦏSkyblivion into your hands later this year. Of course, more details about how and where we will make Skyblivion available will be shared close♛r to release."
Bethesda has shown nothing but support for Skyblivion, 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:inviting the team to its studio and 🌄even sending them free copies of Oblivion Remastered.
The CDPR-owned store𒊎front is best known for championing game pre♋servation, selling DRM-free copies of games so that they can be played independently of digital platforms. However, in the last couple of years, it has also fostered a reputation for supporting the modding community, 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:hosting the ambitio🌌us fan-made Fall𓆉out London.
With Skyblivio🅷n now🌼 joining its ranks, GOG is quickly becoming the go-to storefront for modding projects of this calibre.
Skyblivion Isn't The Only Mod Coming To GOG
As par🦩t of its , GOG also announced that several other notable projects would be brought to the platform.
- Phobos, a fan-made prequel for Doom 3 "set during the UAC's initial experiments on Mars' moon".
- Horn of the Abyss, a Heroes of Might and Magic 3 mod that adds new factions, campaigns, creatures, artifacts, and even a multiplayer lobby system.
- Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines Unofficial Patch, which "not only fixes numerous bugs [...] but also restores and enhances cut content".
And They'll Be Even Easier To Play
Traditionally with mods, you have to download and organise them through separate fan-made and official launchers. It isn't the most intuitive system for newcomers, hence why there's a mountain of YouTube tutorials to help🐠 you avoid breaking your game (which you will, anyway). GOG wants to streamline the entire experience, opening up these fan-led initiatives to an even wider audience.
Skyblivion re🐼quires Oblivion and Skyrim: The Special Edition.
To do that, it's introducing 'one-click mods', starting with Fallout London. You no longer need a launcher to play the game: you can just download and boot it up like anything else on the storefront. So, if you're on PC, it'll be as easy to play Skybli🐲vion as it is the official Oblivion remaster.
