After much anticipation, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered is officially available — and even better, it's a Day One release on Xbox Game Pass. Developed by Virtuous, this remastered edition takes everything fans loved about the original game and enhances it for a new era of gaming.
Built with Unreal Engine 5, the remaster doesn’t replace the original mechanics but builds on them with smoother gameplay and quality-of-life improvements. The result is a stunning reimagining that retains the spirit of the 2006 Game of the Year, while modernizing it for today’s platforms.
Players can expect several upgrades, including:
A more fluid and intuitive combat system
A less punishing stamina drain
An overhauled UI that better guides players through quests and exploration
Beyond technical enhancements, Oblivion Remastered also includes all previously released content — from the eerie, mind-bending landscapes of the Shivering Isles to the noble crusades of the Knights of the Nine. Every corner of Cyrodiil has been given a fresh coat of polish, making the world feel alive and exciting once again.
And yes — you can dive into all of this today with your Game Pass subscription. For those not yet subscribed, getting an XGPS Membership Account is a cost-effective way to experience this beloved classic with all its remastered glory.
Whether you prefer playing as a stealthy assassin, a powerful mage, or a humble blacksmith, Oblivion Remastered gives you the freedom to shape your own path. With unforgettable characters, epic quests, and a massive world to explore, it’s a must-play addition to the Xbox Game Pass library.
