Oblivion Remastered features a local map that can be tricky to locate when exploring dungeons. In his insightful remarks, sportswriter Jon Bois once observed, “Perhaps some humiliations are private affairs.” This sentiment became particularly relevant when fellow PC Gamer writer Joshua Wolens noted in a work chat that many players struggle to find the local map in Oblivion Remastered.
If you haven’t unearthed this remaster’s hidden gem: on the world map screen, players can scroll in using the mouse wheel, which will eventually reveal a map of the current cell. There is also a UI button at the top of the scrollbar to access the local map directly.
This design element reflects a sleek UI approach that accommodates the streamlined menu in the remaster. Unlike the original version of Oblivion, where separate tabs displayed the local and world maps in the character menu, the remastered version has integrated these features, allowing for a more seamless experience.
Should gamers have challenges locating the local map, it’s essential to remember that while it only offers one zoom level, it remains a valuable tool for navigating through Oblivion’s vast Ayleid ruins.
