After months of swirling rumors and tantalizing leaks, it appears that Bethesda is poised to officially unveil its much-anticipated remake of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. The announcement is set to be made tomorrow at 11:00 am EST, and fans can catch the reveal live on both YouTube and Twitch.
In a tweet posted today, Bethesda's official account teased the upcoming announcement with an image prominently featuring a large "IV" and a background that bears a striking resemblance to iconic artwork from Oblivion. Though the tweet did not explicitly mention the game, the visual hints leave little doubt about what fans can expect.
Speculation about an Oblivion remake has been rife for years, gaining momentum with various leaks. The initial hint came from a 2020 Bethesda release schedule that surfaced during the FTC vs. Microsoft trial in 2023, indicating a planned remaster for fiscal year 2022. While the outdated document initially suggested the project might have been canceled, more recent leaks in January of this year pointed to a comprehensive remake being developed by Bethesda with assistance from Virtuos. The speculation reached a fever pitch last week when leaks from Virtuos' website included images purportedly from the remake itself.
If these latest leaks hold true, The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion Remastered is expected to launch on PC, Xbox, and PlayStation. Additionally, a Deluxe Edition featuring the infamous horse armor will be available alongside the standard version.
Be sure to tune in tomorrow for what promises to be the official confirmation of this exciting project, along with further details that will surely delight fans of the beloved RPG.
