Again and again, there are rumors that a remake of the classic The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion is about to be launched soon – but is it really happening this time?
After a remake of the popular part of The Elder Scrolls, Oblivion, has been conveyed several times by informants, the latest rumors say the Tes Oblivion remake would be launched in April.
The rumor factory works over the program
After at the beginning of April, rumors were circulating that a remake of the Bethesda Oblivion game could be released, it seems that this could become a reality earlier than we expected.
It seems that the game is developed in the Unreal Engine 5 by the Virtuous Studio, which is currently working on the MGS3 “Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater”.
However, these statements should be viewed with a healthy dose of skepticism.
What changes are planned?
Numerous play mechanics and battle system are to be restored and improved. Although everything sounds promising, many details remain enveloped in mystery: we do not know what platforms the game will appear and how much it will cost.
In March, Nate The Hate posted on social networks to expect “news” about the oblivion remake in April and that the launch date could take place even earlier than the “initial target in June”.
Launch, according to informants, would be set for April
Now, Detective Seeds Write on X (former Twitter) that launch is most likely scheduled after dedicated event Elder Scrolls online, that is, on April 21.
More people are cited as sources. In case there are still doubts about the authenticity of the remake, Detective Seeds guarantees that the whole story is real:
“Expect the launch of the oblivion remake in the week after the end of the ESO anniversary event. The initial chronology was wrong, I take this, it happens. I am very confident that it will be launched after that event, because the information comes from more than one person. The project is 100% real for those who still doubt.”
It may be released today, maybe tomorrow, or over a month. Many fans would receive with open arms a new Elder Scrolls in Unreal Engine 5, even if it is just a remake. It is interesting to note that Bethesda has not yet commented on the rumors.
The remake made by fans is already confirmed
This silence can be related to the fact that some fans are skeptical about an official remake, because the project carried out by the community, Skyblivion, is approaching the completion.
Volunteers have been working for over a decade to recreate Oblivion in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. The release date was recently confirmed for 2025.
Skyblivion will be a total conversion mode and will be free for all the holders of the fifth game in the series. You can find out more about the project and how you can contribute by accessing The official page.
