Following the leak, Virtuos' website became largely inaccessible, with only the main landing page remaining functional. Despite the quick removal of the content, the internet has already seen a widespread sharing of the leaked screenshots and details.
According to VGC, the game, officially titled The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered, is a collaborative effort between Virtuos and Bethesda's studios in Dallas and Rockville. Virtuos, known for its work on various remasters, including The Outer Worlds: Spacer's Choice Edition, is bringing its expertise to this project.
The remaster is set to launch on multiple platforms, including PC, Xbox Series X|S (with availability on Game Pass), and PlayStation 5. Additionally, a Deluxe Edition will be available, offering bonuses such as special weapons and the much-discussed horse armor from the controversial 2006 DLC.
Rumors of an Oblivion remaster have been circulating since the Microsoft-FTC trial leaks in 2023. Recent reports suggested that the game could even shadow-drop within the current month.
While no official statement or reveal has been made yet, the volume of leaked information strongly indicates that The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered is on the horizon and could be released very soon.
