Summary
It seems as though news onThe Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivionremake could be dropping in the very near future.The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivionis one of the most beloved open world RPGs of all time and has been since it was first released for PC and Xbox 360 in 2006. It’s been nearing 20 years sinceOblivion’s initial launch, and so fans have been calling for a remake or remaster on modern platforms.
Fans have been wanting to see a properOblivionremake for so long that they actually took matters into their own hands. A group of modders have been working on anOblivionfan remake called Skyblivion thatrebuilds the game inSkyrim’s engine, with that project expected to launch at some point later this year. But if rumors are to be believed, there will also be an officialOblivionremake releasing in 2025 as well.
Leaker NateTheHate recently responded to a question on Twitter about the status of thelong-rumoredOblivionremake. According to their information, news on theOblivionremake will likely come at some point “this month” or “next month,” with the game itself potentially releasing “sooner than the original June target.” However, the leaker cautioned that they were still “working to get details” on that front. Assuming NateTheHate’s information is correct, it seemsElder Scrollsfans will get to play theOblivionremake within the next few months.
Oblivion Remake Release Date Could Be Sooner Than Expected
If theOblivionremake is releasing earlier than June, one has to wonder when exactly it will drop. April 2025 is already a busy month for Xbox, with big games likeSouth of Midnightand day one Xbox Game Pass gameClair Obscur: Expedition 33both on the docket, and May 2025 is home to the highly-anticipatedDoom: The Dark Ages. With abig Xbox presentation expected to take place in June, one would think that anOblivionremake would be ideal for a shadow drop, but it seems that may not be the case if it’s releasing earlier than expected. Of course, it’s always possible this information is inaccurate, and so fans should take any claims about theOblivionremake with a grain of salt until Xbox itself confirms that it’s in development.
Rumors have been swirling about anOblivionremake for years. The latest information suggests that theOblivionremake is being built with Unreal Engine 5for release on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S consoles by Virtuos. Luckily, more concrete information on the project should come to light sooner rather than later.
