Within a single day of its launch, The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion Remastered has already seen an explosion of over 200 user-generated mods on PC, addressing various performance issues. Bethesda surprised fans by officially announcing and releasing The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion Remastered on April 22 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, following weeks of speculation.

Developed by Virtuos, The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion Remastered is a faithful recreation of the beloved 2006 RPG, enhanced with modern graphical upgrades and quality-of-life improvements. Built on Unreal Engine 5, the remaster features cutting-edge technologies like virtual shadow mapping and dynamic lighting, significantly elevating the game's visual fidelity. However, these advancements also make the game demanding on modern PCs, prompting the modding community to step in with performance-enhancing solutions.

Despite Bethesda's FAQ stating that mods aren't officially supported, the community has already created over 200 mods for The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion Remastered on NexusMods, as reported by PC Guide. Among these, the "Ultimate Engine Tweaks" mod stands out by eliminating stuttering, boosting frame rates, reducing input lag, and enhancing image quality without noticeable visual degradation—ideal for players with lower-end hardware.

The modding community has swiftly addressed several gameplay aspects. The "Difficulty Slider Fixed" mod smooths out the abrupt damage multiplier jumps, offering a more balanced experience. Meanwhile, the "Universal Achievement Unblocker" ensures achievements remain accessible on Steam and Xbox Game Pass. Another popular mod, "Full Map Unlocked," reveals all map markers in Cyrodiil right from the start of The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion Remastered.

With the mod list expanding rapidly, players can anticipate even more enhancements in the coming weeks. Much like The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim, Oblivion Remastered could enjoy years of longevity if the modding community continues its passionate support.
