- Oh, how often do we hear this sentence from the mouths of the NPC city guardsheard. And yet we could do it again and again. Because the fourth Elder Scrolls part is still rightly considered despite its outdated age of 18 yearsone of the best role-playing games of all time.
It's a good thing that we'll have two opportunities to return to Cyrodiil next year. On the one hand, the long-awaited Skyrim Total Conversion is finally due next yearfrom fans appear - but also on the other handan official remake of Oblivion.
There have been rumors for some time that an official remake of the fourth Elder Scrolls installment is in development. We also reported on it last year. Accordingly, the remake should be in the Paris branch of the Chinese developerVirtous Gamesarise. Now new information has emerged about the project.
The well-known oneLeaker eXtas1swants to know that the remake is almost finished in its development and should be released in 2025.The public announcement is expected to take place next month- at Xbox Direct in January. Since Microsoft took over Bethesda in September 2020, the Elder Scrolls inventors have been part of the Xbox parent company.
According to the information available so far, the Oblivion remake is based on theUnreal Engine 5and could therefore present the well-known Cyrodiil to us in unprecedented splendor.
The existence of the project was, among other things, during theCourt hearing surrounding the Activision takeovermade famous by Microsoft. A much earlier release of the Oblivion remake was originally planned. In the files, the project had its working titleAltar

But use this information from eXtas1s with caution.Although he is usually considered well-informed, there is currently no independent way to verify the leak. Also for which platforms the remake should be released and whether the DLCs Knights of the Nine,or whether the infamous horse armor should be included is currently still completely open.
