Backward compatible: Many old Oblivion mods still work on Oblivion Remastered
1 min read
Summary
Despite Bethesda not officially supporting mods for the recently released Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered, players have found that many mods created for the original game work flawlessly in the updated version.
Reddit and the Bethesda Game Studios Discord confirm that .esp mod files, released years ago for Oblivion, work in the same way in the Remastered edition.
In the original game, players could use the Oblivion Mod Manager to add mods, but the remaster requires manual work.
This involves downloading the applicable .esp files, placing them in the right folder, and adding the full file name to a plain text list.
It’s comforting to know that jokes from the original game still work.
