After months of swirling rumors and leaks, it appears that Bethesda is on the brink of officially unveiling their much-anticipated remake of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. The announcement is scheduled for tomorrow at 11:00 am EST, and fans can catch the reveal live on both YouTube and Twitch.
Bethesda took to Twitter/X to share the news, posting an image featuring a prominent "IV" against a backdrop reminiscent of iconic Oblivion artwork, leaving little room for doubt about the nature of the announcement.
The journey to this point has been filled with speculation. Initial whispers of an Oblivion remake surfaced back in 2020, thanks to a leaked Bethesda release schedule from the FTC vs. Microsoft trial in 2023, which hinted at a remaster planned for fiscal year 2022. Although the timeline had passed, making it seem like a potentially canceled project, the buzz reignited in January of this year with leaks suggesting a full-scale remake developed by Bethesda in collaboration with Virtuos. The rumors gained further credibility last week when additional leaks from Virtuos' website showcased images of the remake in progress.
If these recent leaks hold true, The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion Remastered is set to launch on PC, Xbox, and PlayStation platforms. Fans can look forward to a Deluxe Edition, which will include the iconic horse armor, in addition to the standard version.
Be sure to tune in tomorrow for what promises to be an exciting confirmation and more detailed insights into this highly anticipated remake.
