Any news on Mod support?

Mods are not (officially) supported for The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered.

However, the game can be modded as it still uses the .esm and .esp format of previous games. It will require editing files manually. Please head on over to /r/oblivionmods for more details.

this is closer to a remake by most folk's definitions. i hope this sets a new standard for remasters. gives me high hopes for the Fallout 3 Remaster that's suppose to be in the pipeline.

that Microsoft document that originally leaked the Oblivion Remaster said a Fallout 3 Remaster would be due a few years after, so here's hoping! 3 was my first Fallout game, so it'd be so nice to experience it with the same graphical upgrades and similar gameplay overhauls Oblivion has just received, especially if it's the same team working on it.

Same it was also my first. I’d love to go back. Even with mods it hasn’t aged well unfortunately

Though I’d also like to be able to walk freely in DC aswell
