Ever since the term “Oblivion remake” first wormed its way into the brains of Elder Scrolls fans, the internet has been on high alert — deciphering job listings, dissecting accidental LinkedIn updates, and decoding Todd Howard’s facial expressions like it’s the damn Da Vinci Code. Well, good news, fantasy freaks: the wait is over. The Oblivion remake is real, it’s glorious, and it accidentally went live on Virtuos Games’ official website before they could hit “Unpublish.”

That’s right. A page for the game briefly launched on Virtuos’ site before being swiftly taken down, but not before the internet did its thing — screengrabs, saves, and a deluge of excited “OH MY GOD IT’S HAPPENING” gifs hit Reddit like Mehrunes Dagon himself. According to the page, the game is officially titled “Oblivion Remastered.”

What’s more, it wasn’t just a logo reveal or vague teaser. Nope — this thing had actual side-by-side comparison images showing how the 2006 classic has been gloriously overhauled for modern hardware. And let us tell you: it looks stunning. Like “you can smell the Nibenay” level of gorgeous. If you’ve been dreaming about revisiting the Imperial City with modern lighting, textures, and hopefully fewer NPCs talking about mudcrabs — buckle up.

The leak didn’t stop there. It also spilled the existence of a Deluxe Edition, which appears to come with cosmetic bonuses (although the images for that part were a bit blurry — probably because the internet gods demand some mystery). If this includes new armor skins or even the ability to ride a horse that doesn’t handle like a shopping cart on a ski slope, count us all the way in.

The platform confirmations are also out in the open: Xbox, Game Pass, and PC (very likely through Steam). No PlayStation confirmation yet, but hey, it could happen

Now, about that release date — the leak didn’t spill the beans outright, but all signs point to the long-theorized “shadow drop” around April 21st. So if you start seeing Cyrodiil trending in a few days, it’s not a fever dream. It’s real. It’s happening. It’s time to once again pick your race, exit the sewers, and accidentally steal a loaf of bread that lands you in jail.

Get ready, y’all. We are going back to Cyrodiil.
