Exciting news for fans of The Elder Scrolls series: a long-rumored relaunch of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion has been brought to light through a leak on developer Virtuos' website. Screenshots and images showcasing The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered have surfaced, revealing significant enhancements in models, details, and overall fidelity.
The leak, which was first discovered and shared across various gaming forums such as ResetEra and Reddit, reportedly originated from Virtuos' own site. Following the leak, accessing Virtuos' website has become challenging, with most pages, aside from the main landing page, appearing to be down. Despite the quick removal of the content, the images and details have already spread across the internet.

According to VGC, the game, officially titled The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered, is a collaborative effort between Virtuos and Bethesda's Dallas and Rockville studios. Virtuos, known for its work on remasters such as The Outer Worlds: Spacer's Choice Edition, is at the helm of this project.
The remastered version of Oblivion is set to launch on PC, Xbox Series X|S (available on Game Pass), and PlayStation 5. Additionally, a Deluxe Edition is rumored to include exclusive bonuses such as weapons and horse armor, playfully referencing the infamous 2006 DLC.
Rumors of an Oblivion remaster have been circulating for some time, with the earliest indications coming from leaked documents during the Microsoft-FTC trial in 2023. Recent reports have even suggested that the game might shadow-drop as early as this month.
While no official statement or reveal has been made at the time of this writing, the leaked information strongly suggests that The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered is on the horizon and may be released sooner rather than later.
