what does the oblivion deluxe edition include

The Oblivion Remastered Deluxe Edition is the “everything plus extras” version: it includes the full game, all major DLC story expansions, all smaller DLC packs, plus some new cosmetic/collectible goodies like special armor sets and a digital artbook and soundtrack app.

Below is a clear breakdown in a slightly “mini‑guide” style.

Core inclusions

These are the must‑have parts of what the Oblivion Deluxe Edition includes.

• Digital base game (The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered).
• All major story expansions:
  • Shivering Isles.

* Knights of the Nine.

• All “classic” DLC packs:
  • Fighter’s Stronghold.

* Spell Tomes / Spell Tome Treasures.

* Vile Lair.

* Mehrune’s Razor.

* The Thieves Den.

* Wizard’s Tower.

* The Orrery.

* Horse Armor Pack.

So in practice, you get the complete story and every piece of original DLC content bundled in.

Deluxe‑only extras

On top of the base + DLC, the Deluxe Edition layers in extra quests and digital goodies.

• New in‑game quests that reward:
  • Unique Akatosh‑themed armor, weapons, and horse armor sets.

* Unique Mehrunes Dagon‑themed armor, weapons, and horse armor sets.

• A digital artbook showcasing concept art and designs.

• A dedicated soundtrack app so you can listen to the game’s music outside the game.

These are the bits that typically justify upgrading if you already own the standard remaster.

Standard vs Deluxe at a glance

Here’s the high‑level difference between the Standard and Deluxe versions.

Some storefronts also mention an upgrade path: if you own the Standard Edition, you can pay a small fee (for example, listed as 9.99 on one guide) to unlock the Deluxe extras rather than buying the whole thing again.

Forum & “trending” angle

On fan forums and subreddits, the discussion usually circles around two questions:

1. Is Deluxe “worth it” if you only care about the story?
   • Most players say the Standard/complete version already covers the full narrative and all historic DLC, so you don’t miss any quests from the original era by skipping Deluxe.

2. Who is Deluxe really for in 2025–2026?
   • People who love cosmetic rewards, collecting everything, and having the artbook + soundtrack in one official package tend to lean Deluxe.

 * Players on a budget or replaying Oblivion mainly for nostalgia often stick to the cheaper version and ignore the cosmetic perks.

A typical sentiment you’ll see paraphrased from forum threads is something like:

“If you want every single DLC and don’t care about cosmetics, Standard is fine; if you’re a collector or first‑time player who wants the ‘ultimate’ package, grab Deluxe.”

Quick TL;DR

• Deluxe Edition = base remaster + all story DLC + all minor DLC + new themed armor/weapon/horse armor quests + digital artbook + soundtrack app.

• Standard Edition already includes the base game and all the original DLC content; Deluxe mainly adds cosmetics and digital bonuses on top.
