Summary

  • The worst kept secret in the gaming industry, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion remaster has been officially released on all supported platforms today.
  • A livestream on YouTube and Twitch showcasing gameplay and developer commentary confirmed the release after many leaks over the past few years.
  • Oblivion precedes Skyrim, which is often cited as one of the most popular games of all time.
  • The remaster is janky in an endearing way for fans of the franchise, and provides far more character customisation than Skyrim.
  • The port was created in conjunction with Virtuos, which is a support studio that has worked on many popular titles including Cyberpunk 2077 and The Outer Worlds.
  • It is important to note that this is not a remake but a remaster, and the game still uses Bethesda’s proprietary Creation Engine for gameplay logic and systems.
