The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion remake or remaster has been the industry’s worst-kept secret for a while now. Everyone knows about it, but nobody can seem to pinpoint when the game will be released. Numerous reports have stated April, but some seem to say it will get announced, while others state it will be shadowdropped. Now that April has arrived, we are getting more and more hints that the game will be released soon. The latest hint comes as Bethesda fans have discovered reference to the Oblivion remaster on Bethesda’s official website.
The latest reports for the Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion remaster stated that the game will be shadowdropped during the week of April 21, 2025. From the time of this post, that is only four days away until the possible release.
The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remaster is referenced on Bethesda’s website
One Bethesda fan decided to dig through the source code on the official Bethesda.net website. The user then posted their findings on the Oblivion SubReddit. In the post, the user states, “I was digging through the source code of Bethesda.net and found a reference to ‘oblivion-remastered’ in the Google tab manager setup.” The set stated that it points to the following URL: https://elderscrolls.bethesda.net/en/oblivion-remastered.
Unfortunately, the URL is not live yet, so any attempt to use the web address will point you to a section of the website with “page not found” written on it. The user went on to say, “What’s interesting is that I checked the Google tab manager container on the Wayback Machine, and this reference wasn’t there as of April 10. So it looks like it was added very recently.”
Since this post was made, Bethesda has removed the references to the Oblivion remaster just like it did with the screenshots that were found on the developer’s website. These screenshots are still floating around and make the game look good. Of course, fans are also still waiting on the release of the rumored Fallout 3 remaster that is supposed to be coming as well.
