Players Urgently Request Oblivion Remastered Patch

Oblivion Remastered players are eagerly awaiting a new patch, a month after the game's release. Discover what fans are hoping for in future updates and why console players are in greater need of these fixes.

Oblivion Remastered Has Yet to Have a Patch

Fans Are Looking for an Update

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered has been available for over a month, yet developer Bethesda has not provided any updates on patches. This silence has led to growing anxiety among fans, who have taken to Reddit to voice their concerns and suggest necessary fixes or additions.

It's worth noting that Bethesda did release a hotfix three days post-launch, but it inadvertently introduced new issues, including the removal of upscaling options. Although a subsequent patch addressed this, some players reported that the upscaling required a cumbersome workaround.

Despite these efforts, players are left hanging, as the game continues to be plagued by bugs. A significant issue is the Kvatch bug, which soft-locks players in a quest, preventing further progress. While the community has devised temporary solutions, Bethesda has yet to officially address this problem.

Despite the lack of communication, fans remain hopeful that Bethesda will soon release a patch. Some have expressed their wishes for future updates, including inventory subcategories, enhanced controller shortcuts, and more.

Consoles Need It More

The call for updates is justified, but console players are particularly in need of fixes. Reports from last week highlight that PlayStation and Xbox versions suffer from performance issues that worsen over time.

The report suggests a potential memory management issue in the console versions, leading to consistent glitches and stutters in certain game areas. Bethesda has yet to comment on these concerns, leaving players to find their own workarounds.

A couple of weeks ago, Bethesda launched an Oblivion suggestions channel on their official Discord server, encouraging fans to provide feedback and suggest desired additions.

Oblivion Remastered Player Paralyzed for 66 In-Game Years

In other news, a player found themselves in an unusual situation after self-inflicting a paralysis spell lasting 2,097,762,304 seconds, or 66 in-game years. Reddit user Vaverka shared this experience on May 20, humorously noting that it outlasted Emperor Uriel Septim's reign in the Elder Scrolls series. While many are curious about the spell's recipe, Vaverka has not yet shared the details.

Players continue to uncover various aspects of the game, including bugs, reflecting the game's state 20 years after its initial release. Fans are hopeful that Bethesda will soon address their concerns and enhance the beloved game. Ideally, a patch will be released before Vaverka's spell expires.

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered is available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S (also on Xbox Game Pass), and PC. Stay updated with the latest game news by checking out our article below!
