Following the leak, Virtuos' website has become nearly inaccessible, with most pages outside the main landing page now down. Despite the swift removal of the content, the leaked screenshots and details have already spread across the internet. According to VGC, the remastered game, officially titled The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered, is being developed through a collaboration between Virtuos and Bethesda's studios in Dallas and Rockville.
Virtuos, known for their work on remasters such as The Outer Worlds: Spacer's Choice Edition, is bringing their expertise to this project. The remaster is set to launch on PC, Xbox Series X|S (available on Game Pass), and PlayStation 5. Additionally, a Deluxe Edition is expected, which will include bonus content such as weapons and horse armor—a playful reference to the controversial 2006 DLC.
Rumors of an Oblivion remaster have been circulating for some time, with initial leaks coming from the Microsoft-FTC trial documents in 2023. Subsequent reports have consistently suggested that the remaster was in development, with some even hinting at a potential shadow-drop release as early as this month.
While no official statement or reveal has been made at the time of writing, the extensive details and images that have emerged strongly indicate that The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered is on its way and could be arriving sooner rather than later.
