The PolandElder Scrolls IV: Oblivionblew many minds back in 2006, and it seems like it's getting ready to potentially do the same in 2025.
Bethesda's very popular open-world RPG, which singlehandedly sold some Xbox 360s back in the day, seems to be getting a modern remake. This has been rumored for a while, but extremely legitimate-looking screenshots leaked via the backend of developer Virtuos Studios' website on Tuesday morning. You can see some of them via Reddit and on social media, but much of the Virtuos website was seemingly closed off not long after the leak surfaced, as many of the links now go to 404 screens at the time of publishing.

For context, Virtuos is a Singapore-based studio that does a lot of support work for both original games and ports of older games to newer hardware. In other words, an Oblivionremake is the exact kind of thing Virtuos would normally work on. The most wild part is that the remake could be coming out in the very near future. Giant Bomb's Jeff Grubb, who has a history of being right with these sorts of things, said on his GameBreaking News podcast on Monday that the game is shadow-dropping during the week of April 21.
So not only is this remake potentially real, but it could be in your hands as soon as next week.
