The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered updates the classic open-world RPG with modern visuals, refined systems, and quality-of-life improvements while keeping the original story and exploration intact. Most reviews praise the polished presentation and faithful recreation of Cyrodiil, though persistent performance issues, dated mechanics, and technical rough edges temper the overall experience.
The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion Remastered has enough improvements that it could arguably be considered a full-blown remake.
A beautiful remaster of a great game that leaves some very old, obvious issues untouched.
The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered is a fantastic modernization of an iconic open-world RPG, even if it maintains some of the jank and rough edges of the original.
Despite its name, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered comfortably toes the line between a remake and remaster
The original Oblivion’s a great game, and this remaster’s a good re-packaging of it. It’s an excuse to fire up an Elder Scrolls title that doesn’t feel a million miles from contemporary yet again, but I’m still not sure we needed one.
There's absolutely no doubt that anyone that played the original game, whether it was on Xbox 360 or PC, is excited and pleased that this game exists,
There’s a real charm to this world, its story, and characters. As a kid who grew up in the 2000s, I’ve got a lot of nostalgia wrapped up in Oblivion, and a bit of concern realizing that this game is approaching its 20th anniversary. The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion Remastered is undoubtedly the new definitive way to experience Bethesda’s flawed masterpiece, a game that continues to be a standard for western RPGs.
The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered isn't a perfect remaster, but it is a masterful journey into the past, a time capsule that manages to make you overlook its weaknesses and enjoy everything that made this game a legendary work.
