The next Elder Scrolls game will probably not use Unreal Engine 5 like Oblivion Remastered does. Digital Foundry experts discussed this on their podcast when asked if the remaster might test tech for future games. They noted other studios have customized Unreal Engine for their needs before. The experts think Unreal Engine would not fix the main problems with Bethesda games, such as fragmented game worlds.

Oblivion Remastered shows these limitations because it still runs on top of the old Gamebryo engine. Rendering was already good in Starfield, which uses the Creation Engine. Using Unreal Engine 5 would likely delay the game more, make development harder, and cause performance issues. Oblivion Remastered already needs very powerful computers to run well.

Elder Scrolls VI remains far away from release. Oblivion Remastered lets players visit Tamriel again despite some performance issues. The remaster keeps what made the original game special. Players can enjoy it now on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series consoles.
