The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered has officially launched, bringing one of the most beloved RPGs of all time into the modern era with stunning upgrades. Bethesda’s remake, built with Unreal Engine 5, delivers improved visuals, smarter AI behavior, and smoother mechanics, while maintaining everything fans loved about the original 2006 release.
The remastered edition bundles the base game with classic expansions like Knights of the Nine and Shivering Isles, giving players a complete and polished experience right from the start. The graphical overhaul is particularly impressive — dynamic lighting, detailed textures, and enhanced weather systems breathe new life into Cyrodiil’s vast world.
Bethesda has also refined AI behavior, making NPCs interact more naturally with the environment and each other. Combat feels tighter, quests are more seamless, and the famous Radiant AI system — once revolutionary — finally shines at its full potential.
Reception has been overwhelmingly positive. Oblivion Remastered quickly attracted over 4 million players within its first three days on sale, with critics praising it as a faithful yet much-needed modernization of a true classic.
Is it worth playing? Absolutely. Whether you’re returning to save Martin Septim once more or stepping into the gates of Oblivion for the first time, this remaster offers the perfect opportunity to experience one of RPG history’s defining moments in a beautiful, updated package.
