Oblivion Remastered features several horse breeds that players can buy and ride through the province of Cyrodiil. The Unicorn is one of the rarest mounts in the game, as there's only one that players can find. It has a much higher speed compared to the free horse you get early on, and can also be acquired for free. Although keeping the Unicorn from becoming hostile can be a bit challenging, so, here's a quick guide to walk you through everything.

Where to Find the Unicorn in Oblivion Remastered

Players can find the Unicorn in the Harcane Grove, just south of the Imperial City in Oblivion Remastered. When arriving at this location, make sure to have your weapons sheathed, as the Unicorn will become aggressive and start attacking you if you're armed.

Now, to safely ride the Unicorn, you'll have to get rid of the three Minotaurs that are gathered around it. Since you can't use your weapons near the Unicorn, defeating the Minotaurs can become a bit tricky. However, there's a way you can beat these Minotaurs and ride the Unicorn off into the sunset.

  1. First, you'll need to enter the Harcane Grove and run close to a Minotaur so it starts chasing you.
  2. After you get one Minotaur to chase you, repeat the process with the other two in the grove.
  3. Once you have all three Minotaurs on your tail, simply run away from the Unicorn's location. Minotaurs aren't that fast, so you'll be able to easily avoid getting attacked by them.
  4. After you're far enough, equip your bow and aim at the Minotaur's head. Keep shooting at the Minotaurs until all three are eliminated.

After you've successfully taken down the Minotaurs, return to the Harcane Grove and ride the Unicorn. As soon as you mount it, the Unicorn will become your current mount and will spawn with you whenever you fast travel somewhere. However, don't expect the Unicorn to stand around and wait for you, as it'll slowly start to walk to the Harcane Grove. Just mount it or simply fast travel to another location to bring it back.

How to Get the Unicorn to Stop Attacking

Unicorn Attack in Oblivion Remastered

If you've accidentally made the Unicorn aggressive, it'll start attacking you. Since Unicorn is the rarest mount in the game, fighting and eliminating it will be a mistake. On top of an angry Unicorn, you also won't be able to fast travel, until you beat it in battle.

So, to stop the Unicorn from attacking players, they'll need to find a location nearby that's accessible. It can be a random inn, a building, a cave, or anything with its own separate zone. Once you find it, quickly enter and exit that location. Once you step out, the Unicorn will become passive again, and you'll be able to ride it.
