If the rumours about an Oblivion remake are true, the wait for ES6 just got a lot easier
According to a now deleted Reddit post, a remake of the beloved Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion is in the works over at Virtuous Games. The studio - itself at the centre of a previously leaked Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater remake which proved on the money - may very well be getting its hands on another fan favourite.
But first, the source. Earlier in the week Reddit User Suicidal_tendencie posted on the GamingLeaksAndRumours subreddit. This is a well-known hub for every leaky ship in the industry - both real and fictitious. The poster, claiming to be an ex-employee from Virtuous Games, revealed a range of projects including an Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion remake, although couldn't provide any screenshots as evidence.
"It is done currently using a pairing system, so it means that the remaster is running using both an Unreal Engine 5 project, and the Oblivion one. For instance, new graphics are rendered in the UE5 project, but most of the gameplay / physics /etc is still done in Oblivion. It should be released end of next year/ early [2025] depending m0stly if it's a remake or a remaster. It is mostly done in Paris, but Blackshamrock also helps the studio for the art." (Thanks Xfire for grabbing a screenshot before it was taken down.)
