The reported Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion remake that leakers were 100 percent sure was coming out last week has apparently been pushed back until the end of April, but we are finding it hard to believe now.
The original report came from a Twitter leaker who claimed that the Oblivion remake was meant to arrive on April 3 out of nowhere. Well, April 3 came and went, and nothing arrived, which led other supposed leakers to come out of the woodwork with their own various claims.
These leakers are now claiming that the game will drop on April 21, using a supposed ESO anniversary event stream as their cusp of truth that the information is legit and at this point—we aren’t buying it. Of course, every report and rumor should be taken with a pinch of salt, and I’ll eat my words if April 21st comes and suddenly I’m fighting off against Mehrunes Dagon in stunning HD, but it all feels pretty wild right now.
And I’m not alone in thinking this, either. You only need to look at the various Reddit threads to see folks calling all these leakers red flags, saying they change their minds so often, and even some pointing towards how they are getting this information. The Oblivion Steam Page was recently updated, leading many to believe a remake would tie in with this, but as many Redditors have pointed out, multiple old Zenimax games get similar small updates all the time—so it doesn’t align with something happening.
Obviously though, some fans will hold onto the copium that an announcement is on the way in the same way Hollow Knight: Silksong fans have been praying for news of their beloved equal for the past three years—and then finally got a three-second glimpse and a 2025 release date in the recent Switch 2 Nintendo Direct.
But at least that had an official reveal. All this now feels pretty silly. So, as always, it’s worth waiting for any official announcement from Xbox or Bethesda about a potential remake if they officially reveal it in the future.
