Bethesda's Rumoured Elder Scrolls IV Remake Could Shadow Drop On Xbox, It's Claimed

So, it's been a good few months now that we've been hearing about a possible remake of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion - although Microsoft is yet to announce the title at the time of posting. Well, following on from more rumours about the title arriving 'soon' earlier this week, it sounds like there's a possibility we don't get any lead time at all from announcement to release.

This information is again coming from prominent leaker NateTheHate; one of the sources of prior Oblivion remake rumours. Adding to their information from earlier this week, the insider now says that "the gap between the reveal and release will be minimal" and that "a shadow drop is possible" from Bethesda & Microsoft.

As for exactly when this shadow drop could happen, it seems that the leaker isn't super certain. NateTheHate says that the game was "never planned" for Xbox Developer Direct back in January, and that while we have the big Nintendo Switch 2 Direct coming in just a few weeks, they "haven't heard" of a Switch 2 version of the title.

Ultimately, we'll have to see where things go next with this Oblivion remake rumour saga - but it sounds like there's not long to go at all before Xbox reveals (and potentially releases) this thing. There are so many rumours coming out of Microsoft right now - it's about time some of this stuff got official announcements from the team!
