Exciting news for fans of The Elder Scrolls series: long-whispered rumors about a remastered version of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion have taken a solid step towards becoming reality, thanks to a leak from developer Virtuos' website. Screenshots and images showcasing The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered have surfaced, revealing significant enhancements in model detail, visual fidelity, and more.
The leak, which quickly spread across gaming forums such as ResetEra and Reddit, reportedly originated from Virtuos' site. However, following the leak, accessing the site has become nearly impossible, with most pages outside the main landing page now down. Despite this, the images and information have already made their rounds on the internet.
According to VGC, the project titled The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered is a collaborative effort between Virtuos and Bethesda's studios in Dallas and Rockville. Virtuos, known for their work on numerous game remasters such as The Outer Worlds: Spacer's Choice Edition, is spearheading this project.
The remastered game is expected to launch on PC, Xbox Series X|S (with availability on Game Pass), and PlayStation 5. Additionally, a Deluxe Edition will be available, featuring bonuses like special weapons and the infamous horse armor, a playful reference to the controversial 2006 DLC.
Rumors of this remaster have been circulating since the Microsoft-FTC trial leaks in 2023, with recent reports suggesting a possible shadow drop as soon as this month. While no official statement or reveal has been made yet, the wealth of leaked information points to an imminent release of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered.
