Players of Oblivion Remastered continue waiting for a crucial update a month after launch. Discover what improvements fans hope to see and why console users desperately need this patch.
Oblivion Remastered Has Yet to Have a Patch
Fans Are Looking for an Update
Despite being available for over a month, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered still awaits its first major patch from Bethesda. The developer's silence has sparked discussions on Reddit, with players voicing concerns about persistent issues and desired improvements.
Bethesda did release a hotfix shortly after launch, but this created new problems – notably removing upscaling options. A subsequent patch partially addressed this, though players report needing complicated workarounds for full functionality.
Beyond these issues, the game remains plagued by bugs. The Kvatch questline particularly frustrates players, sometimes soft-locking progression. While the community has created temporary solutions, players still await an official fix from Bethesda.
The community remains hopeful for upcoming updates, with wishlists including inventory organization improvements and better controller support. Fans emphasize these changes would significantly enhance the remastered experience.
Consoles Need It More
While all platforms need attention, console players face particularly severe issues. Recent reports indicate worsening performance problems during extended play sessions on PlayStation and Xbox versions.
Evidence suggests potential memory management flaws causing consistent glitches in specific game areas. Bethesda recently opened a dedicated Discord channel for player feedback, though concrete solutions remain pending.
Oblivion Remastered Player Paralyzed for 66 In-Game Years
In a bizarre gaming moment, Reddit user Vaverka shared experiencing a self-inflicted paralysis spell lasting 2,097,762,304 seconds – approximately 66 in-game years. This humorous incident surpasses Emperor Uriel Septim's reign duration in the Elder Scrolls lore.
As players continue discovering both intended features and unexpected glitches, the community hopes Bethesda will release substantive updates before Vaverka's character recovers – or before other major issues surface.
The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered is currently available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S (including Xbox Game Pass), and PC. For the latest updates about the game, check our coverage below.
