Playing Oblivion Remastered in VR is an awesome experience for fans of The Elder Scrolls. The classic RPG can now be enjoyed in VR thanks to modders’ efforts made by Keyser, Pande4360, and Praydog.
Using Praydog’s UEVR plugin, the mod transforms the Unreal Engine 5 based remaster into a VR playable game. The opening acts of the tutorial show great VR performance with fully functional combat and spell interactions. Little interior spaces work fine, while greater exterior zones require powerful PC specs like an RTX 4090 and an Intel i9 equivalent processor.
Currently, the VR mod lacks a full six degrees of freedom (6dof), which impacts immersion in some areas. This is a promising start for anyone interested in exploring Cyrodiil in a virtual world. With this mod, players can play on a number of VR headsets, like Meta Quest 2,3 or Valve Index.
Oblivion Remastered, developed by Virtuos and Bethesda, includes better graphics, updated gameplay improvements, and all its initial downloadable content. The remaster has been praised for its ability to incorporate nostalgic aspects while improving accessibility, making it equally enjoyable to fervent fans and newcomers to the genre.
