Key Details About the Remake

  • Development Studio: Virtuos is developing the remake. Known for supporting major titles like Horizon Forbidden West and more.
  • Engine and Technology: The game will use a hybrid engine approach combining Unreal Engine 5 with Bethesda’s original Creation Engine, promising modern enhancements while preserving gameplay mechanics.
  • Platforms: Expected on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and PC. Likely to be included in Xbox Game Pass at launch due to Microsoft’s ownership of Bethesda.

Relation to Other Projects

  • Multiple insiders have corroborated these rumours, suggesting a significant shift in plans after initial hints during Microsoft’s acquisition of Activision Blizzard.

The mod SkyUI has sorting and more info in the list of items itself so you don't have to scroll to an item to compare stats. Those two features alone, make it infinitely better. It's not just "smaller text".
