Last year, Bethesda released The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion Remastered to great acclaim, leading some players to call for The Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind to receive the same kind of update. Now, Larian Studios publishing chief and Baldur’s Gate 3 veteran Michael Douse is throwing his support behind a modern update of Morrowind.
In a post on X, Douse wrote, “OK, call me optimistic, but there is a very technically qualified developer out there that would happily remake Morrowind with a modern combat system and it would sell like f***ing hot cakes.” In a subsequent post, Douse added, “Mission to find Bethesda’s Bloober [Team]: go.”

Douse was responding to previous comments left by Bethesda veteran Bruce Nesmith, who recently cast doubt that a Morrowind update is actually what people want.
