More details about the long-rumored relaunch of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion have emerged, thanks to a leak on developer Virtuos' website. Screenshots and images showcasing The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered have been discovered and shared across various gaming forums, including ResetEra and Reddit. These images reveal significant enhancements in models, textures, and overall visual fidelity.
The leak was initially brought to light by a tweet from Wario64, which included links to the images found on Virtuos' site. However, as of this writing, accessing most pages on the Virtuos website has become nearly impossible, with only the main landing page remaining available.
Despite the swift removal of the content, numerous screenshots and details have already circulated widely across the internet. According to VGC, the game, officially 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 remasters such as The Outer Worlds: Spacer's Choice Edition, brings their expertise to this project.
The remaster is set to launch on PC, Xbox Series X|S (with availability on Game Pass), and PlayStation 5. A Deluxe Edition is also reportedly in the works, offering additional bonuses including weapons and horse armor—a playful reference to the controversial 2006 DLC.
Rumors of an Oblivion remaster have been circulating for some time, with initial leaks coming from the Microsoft-FTC trial documents in 2023. Recent reports have suggested that the game might even be released unexpectedly this month.
While no official statement or announcement has been made at the time of this writing, the substantial amount of leaked information strongly suggests that The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered is on the horizon and could be arriving sooner than expected.
