Key Takeaways- Bethesda has confirmed that The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered does not currently support mods.
- The lack of mod support includes no official tools or Creation Club support.
- While official support is absent, modding may still be possible due to the availability of Unreal Engine 5 developer tools.
For those hoping to be able to use their previous The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion mods, or make new ones on the newly remastered release, you’ll be saddened to learn that Bethesda has confirmed that there is currently no mod support for The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered.
That means no official tools, nor support for Creation Club at this time.

As expected, given our report from yesterday, Bethesda's stream for The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion Remastered is now out on consoles today, April 22! Players on Xbox Series X|S, PC and even PS5 should be able to check out the epic action-RPG.
Where There’s s Will, There’s a Way

The confirmation comes from Bethesda, which answered whether The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion supported mods.
“Mods are not supported for The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered,” their official answer reads.
I suppose this news shouldn’t come as much of a shock, given that Elder Scrolls IV Oblivion Remastered is running an entirely new engine than the original, which was a modified version of the Gamebryo engine. Mods were quite popular for all the Gamebryo titles that Bethesda created, although they eventually transitioned to the Creation Engine, starting with The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. Even so, mod support remained a significant deal, as all their games supported it, with even console players being able to use them via the Creation Club.
With the switch to Unreal Engine 5 for the remastered, outright supporting mods out of the gate probably wasn’t a priority for Virtuos and Bethesda Games. It’s still disappointing news nonetheless.
However, given that anyone can download Unreal Engine 5 developer tools, we reckon getting mods up and running for this probably won’t be too hard. Silent Hill 2 Remake, another Unreal Engine 5 title, for example, doesn’t officially support mods, and yet there are plenty of those available on modding marketplaces.
It just means that Bethesda won’t officially support or feature them in-game through the Creation Club and similar features.
That’s not to say the game won’t even get support. Given how popular it was back then, there’s no doubt that this new re-release will be just as massive, if not more, given how much the market has grown. If there’s a demand for it, the studio may reconsider releasing it as part of a game update, though that’s, of course, wishful thinking on our part.
The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered is now available on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. It’s also available day one on Xbox Game Pass for both console and PC subscribers.
