[QUOTE="Admin, post: 67424, member: 1"] [IMG]https://assets-prd.ignimgs.com/2025/04/22/oblivion-blogroll-copy-1745334961889.jpg[/IMG] Bethesda has released details of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered’s first post-launch patch, which is available today (June 5, 2025) in Steam beta form before a release across all other platforms on June 11. The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered - Update 1.1 is the first of two separate patches to be launched in the coming weeks, Bethesda said in [URL='https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/2623190/view/536603447519088660']a post on Steam[/URL]. Both are on Steam Beta first. This first update focuses on quests, major bugs and blockers, and quality of life fixes. The second update will focus on performance. Bethesda said it will share more details “when we are able.” A performance patch is much needed. Oblivion Remastered has enjoyed a hugely successful launch, with over 4 million players and a ‘very positive’ user review rating on Steam. However, if there’s one issue that continues to crop up, it’s performance problems. The tech experts at [URL='https://www.eurogamer.net/digitalfoundry-2025-oblivion-remastered-revisited-profound-problems-have-yet-to-be-addressed'][U]Digital Foundry[/U][/URL] found Oblivion Remastered on consoles to have significant problems across the board. DF’s Thomas Morgan said of Virtuos’ Unreal Engine 5 overhaul: How does this manifest itself in-game? According to DF, a “charged” playthrough with more continuous play time behind it performs worse than a fresh boot. Cycling through saves also introduces bugs in the charged play through, Morgan revealed. And this is particularly curious: this also leads to the camera position being too high while riding horseback. You can fix this by resetting the game. “It's a dire position for any remaster to be in and developer Virtuos needs to address the game's stability - the crashes - as a priority,” Morgan continued. That’s a damning assessment of Oblivion on console, but what about PC? DF called PC performance “dire.” It’s worth checking out [URL='https://www.eurogamer.net/digitalfoundry-2025-oblivion-remastered-is-one-of-the-worst-performing-pc-games-weve-ever-tested'][U]DF’s analysis in full[/U][/URL] for more. As for Update 1.1., highlights include ToggleHudVisibility and ShowHud console commands, which will be perfect for those looking to capture Oblivion Remastered screenshots (it’s a gorgeous game!), a fix for not automatically showing the Local Map when inside interior spaces and a fix for the Local Map being blank when opening, and a fix for the first-person camera being set above the player's head.
