That unfortunate leak of the super top secret Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remaster has not stopped the wheels turning on a more conventional reveal, with the Bethesda Softworks YouTube channel now displaying a somewhat cryptic countdown to a video premiere that is very Oblivion-styled:
For the rock-dwellers that missed the initial unorthodox reveal, this will serve as the big announcement of The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion Remastered – while the rest of us silly present-peekers will have to put on an Oscar-worthy performance of pretending to be surprised.
Given that it we will finally see an incarnation of The Elder Scrolls that isn’t Skyrim-flavoured, the relief and excitement should be quantifiable in spades. Looking slick and sexy in its Unreal Engine 5 stylings, players can hopefully look forward to a release that comes sooner rather than later – and more than likely will appear as a day one Game Pass pick up.
As of right now, the video will go live in around 14 hours. Let’s hope the downloadable horse armour is a freebie this time around, if only so we can reminisce about times past without the wallet-shock.
