Exciting news has emerged for fans of the iconic RPG as screenshots from the unannounced but heavily rumored remaster of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion have leaked online. These images were discovered by enthusiasts who meticulously explored the website of the game’s presumed developer, Virtuos Games.
The leaked screenshots, which have rapidly circulated across various social media platforms, including popular accounts like Wario64, and community forums such as Reddit and ResetEra, showcase a striking comparison of the original game’s visuals against the enhanced graphics of its remastered version. Additionally, several pieces of key art have surfaced, featuring the game’s Deluxe Edition and its accompanying contents.
As reported by IGN, Virtuos’ official website is currently down, which adds to the intrigue surrounding this project. It has been reported that the studio is collaborating with Bethesda’s Dallas and Rockville teams to develop this highly anticipated remaster. According to Video Games Chronicle, the remaster will not only enhance the visuals but also incorporate significant gameplay changes to the beloved 2006 open-world RPG.
Virtuos Games has established a reputation as a reliable support studio in the gaming industry, having previously collaborated with Obsidian on titles like The Outer Worlds: Spacer's Choice Edition and contributing to other remasters, such as Batman: Return to Arkham. Their expertise makes them a fitting choice for revamping a classic like Oblivion.
The speculation regarding a remaster of Oblivion has been circulating for quite some time. Leaked Microsoft documents from the company's 2023 FTC trial hinted at the project being in development. Recently, the buzz has intensified, with numerous journalists and online leakers suggesting that an April launch is on the horizon. If true, the remaster will be available on PlayStation 5, PC, and Xbox Series X/S, including access through Game Pass.
Today’s leaks have significantly bolstered the belief in the remaster’s existence, igniting enthusiasm among fans. As of now, both Bethesda and Virtuos have not provided an official comment regarding these revelations. We have reached out to both companies for clarification and will update this article as more information becomes available.
