After months of swirling rumors and tantalizing leaks, it seems Bethesda is poised to officially unveil their much-anticipated remaster of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. The announcement is set for tomorrow at 11:00 am EST, and fans can catch the reveal live on both YouTube and Twitch.
The official Bethesda Twitter account dropped a hint-filled post today, featuring a prominent "IV" and a background eerily reminiscent of iconic Oblivion artwork. While the announcement's exact content remains under wraps, the visual clues strongly suggest that the long-awaited remaster is finally becoming a reality.
Speculation about an Oblivion remake has been rampant for years, fueled by various leaks. The earliest hint came from a 2020 Bethesda release schedule leak during the FTC vs. Microsoft trial in 2023, which hinted at an Oblivion remaster planned for fiscal year 2022. Although the document's age and missed release window initially cast doubt on the project's status, more recent leaks have reignited excitement. In January of this year, reports suggested Bethesda was collaborating with Virtuos on a comprehensive remake. Last week's leaks from Virtuos' website, showcasing images of the remake, further solidified these rumors.
If these latest leaks hold true, The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion Remastered will launch on PC, Xbox, and PlayStation. Fans can look forward to a Deluxe Edition that includes the iconic horse armor, in addition to the standard version.
Tune in tomorrow to see Bethesda hopefully confirm all these exciting details and share even more about what to expect from this beloved classic's revival.
