"Oblivion Remastered Lacks Official Mod Support, Despite Thriving Modding Community"
Bethesda has announced the release of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered, much to the excitement of fans worldwide. However, the absence of official mod support has left many in the community disappointed. Dive in to understand more about the game's place in the modding world and its instant popularity following its surprise launch.
The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered Out Now!
Bethesda Confirms No Mod Support for Oblivion Remastered
During the official reveal livestream for The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered, Bethesda confirmed that the game is now available for purchase. The developers highlighted the significant enhancements over the original release, yet a notable omission is the lack of official mod support.
Bethesda's support page states that Oblivion Remastered will not feature official mod support, with no explanation provided. This decision is surprising given Bethesda's history of robust support for the modding community, having released official modding tools like the Creation Kit for games such as Fallout 4, Skyrim, and Starfield.
Despite this, the modding community remains undeterred. Fans are already experimenting with the old Creation Kit from the original game to integrate mods into the remaster. On platforms like Reddit, modders are actively discussing and sharing strategies to adapt their mods to the remastered version, which now utilizes Unreal Engine 5.
Oblivion Remastered on VR
Even without official mod support, enthusiasts have wasted no time exploring Oblivion Remastered in virtual reality. Just three hours after its release, fans started using UEVR—a mod tool designed to enable VR gameplay in non-VR games. YouTuber LunchAndVR shared a video showcasing early tests of Oblivion Remastered in VR, using UEVR and motion controls.
The video demonstrates the game running smoothly at 70 fps on a setup featuring medium graphics settings, DLSS, a GeForce RTX 4090, an Intel Core i9-13900, and 64GB of RAM. This suggests 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 (including Xbox Game Pass), and PC. Keep up to date with the latest developments by checking out our detailed article below!
