Essentially, the game you see in Oblivion Remastered is essentially the 2006 version of the game, but with a fresh coat of paint using Unreal Engine 5. If you explore the files within Oblivion Remastered, you’ll notice that they are structured identically to how they were when they were first installed on your computer in 2006. Navigate to [Drive Letter] > SteamLibrary > steamapps > common > Oblivion Remastered > OblivionRemastered > Content > Dev > ObvData > Data, and if you’ve ever tinkered with mods for the original Oblivion game, it will feel like reconnecting with an old acquaintance.
In the month after its debut, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 managed to sell more than 2 million copies, far surpassing the sales of its prequel by an impressive fivefold. This highly-anticipated sequel has garnered praise from both gamers and critics for its immersive RPG mechanics, expansive open world, and captivating narrative. The story follows Henry of Skalitz as he embarks on a quest for vengeance against King Sigismund of Luxembourg in 1403 Bohemia. Unlike the original release that struggled with bugs and technical difficulties, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 boasts minimal issues, a testament to Warhorse Studios’ learning from their past mistakes. The game has remained popular among players long after its launch, leading its director to speculate on possible reasons for its enduring appeal.
As a devoted fan, I’d like to echo Ybarra’s thoughts in his post: In my opinion, even with a spruced-up appearance from the Remastered version, classic role-playing games such as The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion can’t quite match up to contemporary RPGs like Elden Ring from FromSoftware.

After much anticipation, the highly anticipated remastered version of the 2006 game, “The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion,” quietly debuted on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S on April 22nd. Although it was released without a prior announcement, it quickly drew strong interest from both new players and longtime “Elder Scrolls” enthusiasts, as its Steam concurrent player count surpassed 100,000 within just two hours of launch. On the console side, this action RPG has become one of the top 10 games on the PlayStation Store in the US, and is also a major day-one release on Xbox Game Pass. However, in a development that may disappoint some fans, it was recently announced that the remastered version of “The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion” lacks one community-focused feature that is commonly found in other Bethesda games.
