Leaks claimed in 2023 that the beloved Elder Scrolls title had a remake in the works, which, it is now being claimed, could be unveiled imminently.

Leaks claimed roughly a year and a half ago that a remaster/remake of The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion was in development at Virtuos, and now that project could be on the verge of being announced.

That’s as per extas1s, a prominent Xbox leaker. With reports alleging with increasing confidence that Microsoft has another annual Xbox Developer Direct presentation scheduled for January, extas1s has thrown his weight behind those claims as well, and as per the leaker, the remake for The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion could be one of the titles set to be announced.

In the original leaks that supposedly revealed the existent of the remake, it was claimed that the game was using both, the original title’s codebase, as well as a new Unreal Engine 5 pipeline, and that it was targeting a late 2024/early 2025 release. Obviously, it seems like launch plans may have changed behind the scenes (assuming that that earlier leak was accurate), but if a release in 2025 is still planned, an announcement in January would make sense.
