Oblivion Remastered just got its first patch since its release in April (on Steam Beta, at least), and Bethesda is already promising another to come.
Oblivion Remastered update 1.1 is out now for Steam Beta users, but will be rolled out for everyone else on June 11. This one is mainly focused on bug fixes and crashes, with 11 specific crashes as well as "various CPU crashes" all ironed out, hopefully making for a smoother experience.
Five quests have had fixes applied, including one to stop Savlian getting stuck after The Battle for Kvatch's Castle Courtyard fight, and another to prevent Vicente Valtieri from "losing his hair" in A Knife in the Dark.
Elsewhere, a handful animations have been fixed in various ways – issues you might have seen when mounting horses should be gone, Shambles' animations when attacking should no longer get stuck, and High Chancellor Ocato's arms should actually be animated now. Some UI fixes, like missing subtitles when interacting with Daedric Shrines and the Local Map not automatically showing up inside places, have also been implemented.
Bethesda hasn't currently given many details about the second update or when exactly we can expect it to release, beyond saying that it "will focus on performance, and we will share more details when we are able." In the blog post revealing this news (which also goes over the full patch notes for the first update, if you want all of those details), it mentions working on "two separate updates to be launched in the coming weeks," so presumably we shouldn't have too long to wait for that second one.
