The gaming community is buzzing with excitement as Xbox unveils a breathtaking dynamic background featuring The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered. This special treat comes just as Bethesda officially launched the highly anticipated remaster on April 22, ending months of speculation and rumors.

For those who've been following the whispers about an Oblivion remake, the wait has finally paid off. Not only can players dive into the revitalized world of Cyrodiil, but Xbox Series X/S owners now have the perfect way to showcase their enthusiasm right on their console's home screen.

A Dynamic Tribute to an Iconic Game

The new dynamic background captures the essence of Oblivion's legendary cover art - an armored warrior standing before the game's flaming sigil, with smoldering ruins stretching into the distance. What makes it truly special is the subtle animation: the Oblivion symbol shimmers with heat, bringing the artwork to life in a way that static images simply can't match.

This visual treat serves as both a celebration of the remaster's release and a nostalgic nod to one of gaming's most beloved RPGs. It's particularly meaningful given how Bethesda maintained radio silence about the remaster until the official announcement stream.

How to Get the Oblivion Remastered Background

Setting up this stunning background is remarkably simple:

1. Press the Xbox button on your controller
2. Navigate to Settings
3. Select Personalization
4. Choose 'My color & background'
5. Select 'Dynamic backgrounds'

The timing couldn't be better, as Oblivion Remastered is already making waves across platforms. Steam players are flocking to the game, and Xbox fans got the extra bonus of it being a Day One Game Pass title - meaning subscribers can jump in without any additional cost.

Microsoft and Bethesda: A Winning Combination

The successful launch of Oblivion Remastered marks another victory in Microsoft's acquisition of Bethesda. Following the record-breaking success of Starfield on Game Pass, this classic RPG's revival demonstrates the fruitful partnership between the two gaming giants.

Looking ahead, Bethesda and Xbox continue their collaboration with the imminent release of Doom: The Dark Ages on May 15. Like Oblivion Remastered, it will be available on Game Pass from day one, maintaining the pattern of premium content for subscribers.
