How do you get a free horse in Oblivion Remastered? Getting a horse in Oblivion is essential for traversing Cyrodiil, and though you can get a horse by progressing the main campaign, there’s a much easier way to get a free horse early on in your playthrough.
You can get a free horse by delivering the Amulet of Kings to Brother Jauffre in Weynon Priory by progressing through the main Oblivion Remastered questline, but if you’re just starting out in the RPG game, here’s where to find a horse for free much earlier. Oblivion Remastered is much easier to navigate with a horse.
Oblivion Remastered free horse location
You can get a free horse by visiting Chestnut Handy Stables, just outside the Imperial City. When you get here, go inside and talk to Snak gra-Bura; you get the option to ask, ‘you got anything useful for me?’ which adds the quest, Horse Armor.
Speak to her about wanting horse armor, and a horse too, and tell her you’re not fussy about the horse, you’ll take any! Snak gra-Bura will kit out her old horse with steel armor and give it to you, free of charge, also unlocking the option for her to outfit any legally owned horse with Steel or Elven armor for 500 gold.
She wasn’t kidding when she said ‘old nag’ because the horse isn’t particularly speedy, but you did say you weren’t fussed, and it was free…
Can you call your horse?
Unlike other modern RPGs, there is no way to call your horse to your position in Oblivion Remastered. You can’t whistle or shout to make your trusty steed appear behind you. Instead, your horse will be waiting for you at the stables once you leave them behind.
Now you’ve got your new horse, here’s how long you can expect Oblivion to take you, and the best Oblivion Remastered mods we’ve seen so far that’ll make the open world game easier.
