It is rumored that Bethesda is about to announce a remake of its acclaimed 2006 RPG, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, with the possibility of its release occurring before June. The information comes from NateTheHate, an insider known for his track record in revealing details about unannounced games. According to him, fans can expect more information about the remake either this month or in April.
A remake whose existence we know, even if it is not announced
Despite expectations that the announcement would take place during the Xbox Developer Direct in January, Bethesda revealed nothing about it. However, interest in an Oblivion remake has been growing following the discovery of documents in the FTC case involving Microsoft and its proposal to acquire Activision Blizzard, where an Oblivion Remaster was mentioned as an unannounced game for the fiscal year 2022.
So far, there are no confirmed details about the platforms on which the remake could be released, although Bethesda has had a tendency to release its games on rival platforms. For example, this May, Doom: The Dark Ages will be released, but its most recent and anticipated title, Starfield, remains an exclusive for Xbox and PC. The original release of Oblivion was exclusive to Xbox, although it later became available on PS3 in 2007.
Among the community projects, there is a fan-made remake titled Skyblivion, which is scheduled to be released in 2025. Bethesda, for its part, is still working on The Elder Scrolls VI, although no details have been disclosed about its possible release. As events unfold, fans of the series eagerly await any official announcement related to Oblivion.
