Bethesda’s Oblivion Remake: A Guide to Viewing the Live Announcement


Almost twenty years after its initial launch on the Xbox 360, it appears that The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion is poised for a revival.

Bethesda, the game’s original creator, shared a teaser on its official X (previously Twitter) account on Monday, revealing a livestream event scheduled for Tuesday at 11 a.m. ET. Fans can watch the reveal through Bethesda’s official YouTube or Twitch channels. The announcement featured an eye-catching graphic showcasing the Roman numeral “IV” in a striking black-and-red color palette—suggesting strongly that Oblivion is indeed making a return.

Although rumors regarding an Oblivion remake have been circulating for a while, speculation surged significantly last week after what appeared to be genuine screenshots emerged online, allegedly taken from a development studio’s site. The excitement grew even more when journalist Jeff Grubb mentioned on his Game Mess Mornings podcast that the game might not only be announced—but could potentially launch on the same day as the livestream. Grubb has a reliable track record with such predictions, adding weight to the assertion.

If accurate, this would be a remarkable surprise release—and a nostalgic delight for devoted fans of the series.
