After months of speculation and leaks, Bethesda is set to officially unveil the long-awaited remake of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. The announcement is scheduled for tomorrow at 11:00 am EST, and fans can tune in live on both YouTube and Twitch.
Bethesda teased the reveal with a post on X (formerly Twitter), featuring a prominent "IV" and a background reminiscent of iconic Oblivion artwork, strongly hinting at the game's identity. While the post did not explicitly mention the title, the clues are unmistakable.
Rumors about an Oblivion remake have been circulating for years, gaining momentum with various leaks. The earliest hint came from a leaked Bethesda release schedule in 2020 during the FTC vs. Microsoft trial, which mentioned an Oblivion remaster planned for fiscal year 2022. Although the timeline had passed, suggesting the project might have been canceled, new leaks emerged in January of this year. These leaks indicated that Bethesda, with assistance from Virtuos, was working on a full remake. The rumors were further solidified last week when images purportedly from Virtuos' website surfaced, showcasing the remake in progress.
If these recent leaks hold true, The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion Remastered will be available on PC, Xbox, and PlayStation. Additionally, a Deluxe Edition is expected to be released, featuring the infamous horse armor alongside the standard version.
Be sure to tune in tomorrow for what promises to be an exciting confirmation and more detailed information about this highly anticipated remake.
