Well, I’ll be. Usually when big, conspiracy-level fusses around something as obviously bait-y as ‘there’s an Oblivion remaster in the works’ are doing the rounds, my first response is to doubt. I have been proven well and truly wrong, and will henceforth be wearing a tinfoil clown wig for my foolishness. The rumoured Oblivion remaster is very much real.
As spied by an eagle-eyed frequenter of the r/gamingleaksandrumours subreddit, Virtuos Games, a studio that co-develops with a wide variety of studios—for example, it worked on the Beyond Good & Evil remaster with Ubisoft—left the door open and swinging in the wind to the uploads section of its website.
As I started writing this article, access became forbidden, but not before a swarm of eager gamers took an hour or so to plunder its depths and pull out heaps of screenshots.
It’s a veritable dragon’s hoard of information: Trailer screenshots, covers, a deluxe edition, graphics comparisons. I want to emphasise in sharing these that I’m not passing on the ill-gotten gains of some internet hackers; these were simply available by looking at the content page of Virtuos’ site. The cat isn’t just out of the bag, it’s clawed through the bag and is now doing zoomies around the living room and peeing on the upholstery.
This marks the final end to a theory of leaks that started in 2023 when The Verge shared a four-year release schedule from Bethesda. Not every leak in that presentation came to fruition, mind—a sequel to Dishonoured with a release date for 2024 didn’t arrive, for example.
The rumour mill recently began to kick up again, primarily through whispers and hearsay from proclaimed industry insiders. As PC Gamer’s own Joshua Wolens wrote: “We’ve got baseless confidence that the remaster is coming, baseless confidence that it isn’t, fear, madness, obsessive augur-reading, a complete descent into conspiratorial thinking, and this guy who says it was actually released yesterday.”
But this is about as legit of a confirmation as you can reasonably get—a trusted videogame developer’s website, with a bunch of assets, accidentally posted online through a publicly-accessible image directory for long enough that absolutely no-one can argue with the truth. There is an Oblivion remaster. It is coming. The stars were right—gods give me strength!
