Xbox Support Leaks Potential Release Date for The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion Remastered
2025-04-16 22:34:40Xbox Support might have unintentionally disclosed crucial details about The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion Remastered. Bethesda fans have been buzzing with excitement as leaks continue to surface about what might be gaming's worst-kept secret. While Bethesda hasn't officially announced the remaster, fans have already uncovered screenshots, title cards, supported platforms, and now, a possible release date.
Insiders and leakers have long hinted at the remaster, with some referring to it as a remake. Recent leaks, however, seem to confirm its existence beyond doubt. On April 15, fans discovered Oblivion Remastered screenshots and promotional images on Virtuos Games' official website. These leaks confirmed the game's development for Xbox Series X, PS5, and PC, but the release timeline remained uncertain—until now.
The same day as the Virtuos leak, Twitter user Ser_Raven18 shared a conversation with Xbox Support that provided even more details. When asked about Oblivion Remastered's availability on cloud gaming, the support bot replied with a release date of April 21, 2025, as a day-one title on Xbox Game Pass. While automated responses aren't official sources, this timeline aligns with insider expectations. Multiple sources had previously suggested the Oblivion remaster would arrive around April 21, with some predicting a shadow drop on April 22 following an Elder Scrolls Online event.
If accurate, Oblivion Remastered will join an already packed April lineup for Xbox Game Pass. Microsoft has already announced six day-one releases for the service in April, and the Oblivion remaster could be the seventh. Another Twitter user, SynthPotato, obtained additional details from Xbox Support, confirming that the Game Pass version will include all original DLCs—possibly the Deluxe Edition hinted at in the Virtuos Games leaks.
Xbox Support also revealed that Oblivion Remastered will be available on Xbox One, expanding beyond the next-gen consoles mentioned in earlier leaks. Despite the excitement, the developers behind the fan-made Skyblivion project remain unfazed, emphasizing their work as a passion project rather than a commercial endeavor. Whether through Skyblivion or the official remaster, Elder Scrolls fans have plenty to look forward to.
