A remake of The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion will have big changes to game mechanics

Exciting news has emerged from MP1st regarding a highly anticipated remake of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. According to details sourced from the portfolio website of an unnamed developer at Virtuos Studio, this project is far more than a simple remaster. Developed on the cutting-edge Unreal Engine 5, the remake promises a complete reimagination of the beloved classic.

Virtuos Studio is reportedly overhauling several key mechanics, including stamina, stealth, attack blocking, archery, damage reactions, and the user interface. One of the standout changes is the revamped blocking mechanics, which now draw inspiration from the dynamic and engaging systems found in Soulslike games. This is a significant departure from the original game's mechanics, which many felt were lackluster.

Additionally, the damage calculation system has been reworked to include visible reactions when characters are hit, enhancing the realism and immersion of combat. Stamina management is expected to be more user-friendly, catering to modern gaming standards. The user interface and archery mechanics are also being updated to align with current trends, ensuring a smoother and more enjoyable experience for players.

While MP1st speculates that the project initially started as a remaster—as hinted by leaked Microsoft documents—it has evolved into a full-fledged remake. Despite this exciting development, fans should not expect to see the Oblivion remake at the upcoming Developer_Direct. However, rumors suggest that a release might be on the horizon this year, keeping the anticipation high among the gaming community.
