According to VGC, the remastered game, officially titled The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered, is being developed through a collaboration between Virtuos and Bethesda's studios in Dallas and Rockville. Virtuos, known for its work on numerous game remasters including The Outer Worlds: Spacer's Choice Edition, is bringing its expertise to this project.
The leaked information suggests that The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered will be available on PC, Xbox Series X|S (including Game Pass), and PlayStation 5. Additionally, a Deluxe Edition is rumored to include exclusive bonuses such as special weapons and horse armor, a playful reference to the infamous 2006 DLC.
Rumors of an Oblivion remaster have been circulating since leaked documents from the Microsoft-FTC trial in 2023. Recent reports have hinted at a possible shadow-drop release as soon as this month. While no official statement or reveal has been made yet, the extensive details that have emerged suggest that The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered is indeed on its way and could be arriving sooner rather than later.
