A remake of The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion will have big changes to game mechanics

Feb 21,25

A recent report by MP1st reveals details about a rumored, unannounced remake of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. The information, reportedly sourced from the anonymous online portfolio of a former Virtuos Studios developer, suggests a significant undertaking. The project, utilizing Unreal Engine 5, will reportedly feature extensive overhauls.

The remake will apparently be a complete reimagining of the original game. This includes substantial changes to core mechanics. Expect updated systems for stamina management, stealth, blocking, archery, damage feedback, and the user interface. The blocking system, for instance, is said to take inspiration from Soulslike games, aiming to address criticisms of the original's underwhelming implementation. Damage calculations and visual reactions to attacks will also be improved, alongside a more intuitive stamina system. The UI and archery mechanics will also receive modernizations.

MP1st speculates that the project, initially planned as a remaster (as hinted at in leaked Microsoft documents), has expanded into a full-fledged remake. While sources confirm the remake won't appear at the upcoming Developer_Direct, rumors suggest a potential release within the year.
