The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remake
The much-anticipated remake of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion could be coming sooner than expected. According to reliable insider NateTheHate, the game is set to launch either in April or May 2025, which is earlier than the original June release date.
- Developer: Bethesda and Virtuos
- Engine: Unreal Engine 5
- Features: Significant visual enhancements, revamped gameplay mechanics (including stamina, sneaking, blocking, archery, hit reactions, and a redesigned HUD)
This remake is moving at a rapid pace, with insider reports suggesting that Bethesda is preparing an imminent reveal.
What are the enhancements you think are essential to be included in this remake?
Must moving from the Gamebtyo/Creation Engine to Unreal seems like a huge leap. Wonder how much that’ll affect modding capability or recreating popular mods from the original game.
Kinda sad that this’ll seemingly overshadow the Skyblivion team’s efforts over the past 15 years… Unless they hired some of their team.
It will probably have even worse performance though.
I’m guessing that all mods will more or less need to be remade from scratch (apart from assets)
I would imagine it’ll be similar to GTA The Definitive Edition where the original engine still handles the physics etc. and Unreal is used to render the new visuals and UI.
