Bethesda has officially launched The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered, surprising fans with an immediate release. However, the excitement is tempered by the announcement that the remastered version will not include official mod support. This decision marks a significant departure from Bethesda's usual approach to modding, leaving many in the community puzzled and disappointed.
During the official reveal livestream for The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered, Bethesda not only announced the game's immediate availability but also highlighted the significant graphical and gameplay improvements over the original release. Yet, a notable omission was the lack of official mod support, a feature that has been a hallmark of Bethesda's games like Fallout 4, Skyrim, and Starfield.
Bethesda's support page confirms that Oblivion Remastered will not support mods officially, with no explanation provided for this unexpected decision. This has left fans searching for alternatives, with many turning to the old Creation Kit designed for the original game. On platforms like Reddit, modders are actively discussing and sharing methods to adapt existing mods to work with the remaster, which now utilizes Unreal Engine 5.
Despite the absence of official mod support, the community's creativity shines through as fans have already begun experimenting with Oblivion Remastered in VR. Just three hours after its launch, enthusiasts used UEVR, a tool for transforming games into VR experiences, to play the game in virtual reality. YouTuber LunchAndVR shared a video showcasing these early tests, running the game at 70 fps on medium settings with DLSS, using a setup featuring a GeForce RTX 4090, Intel Core i9-13900, and 64GB of RAM. These initial efforts suggest that with further optimization, Oblivion Remastered could offer a compelling VR experience.
The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered is now available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S (accessible via Xbox Game Pass), and PC. For the latest updates and more information on the game, be sure to check out our detailed article below!
