Bethesda has released a patch for Oblivion Remastered that promises thorough optimization and bug fixes, as well as a new difficulty setting. This update aims to bridge the gap between the existing difficulty levels by adding a new setting titled Journeyman. Bethesda hopes this will provide a smoother experience for players who have criticized the game’s difficulty balance.

Key Features of the Update:

• New Difficulty Setting: Introduces the Journeyman level between Adept and Expert.
• Performance Improvements: Fixes frame rate drops and other performance-related issues.
• Bug Fixes: Corrects various glitches, including issues with character models, NPC behavior, and game crashes.

The update is available now through the Steam beta channel, and players are encouraged to join this option to test it out before the full rollout.
