The long-awaited news from Bethesda is finally here: The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion is getting a remaster! This beloved game, famous for its quirky, potato-faced characters, is set to make a big splash with an official reveal. Bethesda has marked April 22 for a special reveal stream that’s got fans buzzing with excitement.
In a twist that caught many of us off guard, this announcement came out of nowhere—or not, if you’ve been keeping up with the persistent rumors that have been swirling since early 2023. Interestingly, just last week, details about the remaster surfaced, and even the official Xbox support team dropped hints about a potential release date.
For those who are eager to see the unveiling, Bethesda has set up a stream on April 22. You can catch all the action right here at 4 PM BST, which translates to 11 AM ET, 8 AM PT, and 5 PM CEST.
With all the speculation swirling around, there’s a strong sense that Bethesda might just surprise everyone with a sudden release during the stream. It’s noteworthy that they’ve playfully dubbed the event ‘All will be revealed…,’ adding to the intrigue.
As we gear up for the updates, many are curious to see how Virtuos Games and Bethesda have revamped the 2006 classic that became synonymous with spooky door adventures—and let’s not forget the incredible Elder Scrolls DLC, Shivering Isles. I wholeheartedly stand by that; Shivering Isles is unmatched.
But hey, no pressure if the remaster isn’t your cup of tea. The original game is still easily accessible for those who love its eccentric charm. Moreover, PC enthusiasts can look forward to Skyblivion, an ambitious modding project that’s also giving Oblivion a fresh new look.
“From the beginning, this project has been driven by pure passion,” shared the Skyblivion project lead when we caught up after the remaster details leaked. “It’s given me so much more than I ever expected—friends, experience, and a career in the gaming industry.”
So, are you ready to dive into the Oblivion remaster like it’s 2006 all over again? We’d love to hear your thoughts!
