Exciting news for fans of The Elder Scrolls series! A long-rumored relaunch of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion has taken a significant step closer to reality, thanks to a leak on developer Virtuos' website. The leak, which has since spread across forums like ResetEra and Reddit, revealed screenshots and images of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered, showcasing enhanced models, improved details, and higher fidelity visuals.
The images, initially shared by Wario64 on X (formerly Twitter), have sparked a flurry of excitement and speculation. However, as of now, the Virtuos website has become nearly inaccessible, with most pages outside its main landing page reportedly down. Despite this, the leaked information and visuals have already circulated widely across the internet.
According to VGC, this remastered version, officially titled The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered, is being developed collaboratively by Virtuos and Bethesda's studios in Dallas and Rockville. Virtuos, known for their work on remasters like The Outer Worlds: Spacer's Choice Edition, is bringing their expertise to this project.
The remaster is set to launch on PC, Xbox Series X|S (available on Game Pass), and PlayStation 5. There will also be a Deluxe Edition, featuring additional bonuses such as weapons and horse armor - a playful nod to the controversial 2006 DLC that originally stirred the community.
Rumors of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion's remaster have been circulating for some time, with initial leaks stemming from the Microsoft-FTC trial documents in 2023. Recent reports have even suggested a potential shadow-drop release as soon as this month.
While no official statement or reveal has been made as of this writing, the substantial evidence from the leak strongly suggests that The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered is on its way and may be arriving sooner than expected. Fans of the iconic RPG series have much to look forward to with these promising developments.
