"The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion exists in a strange realm. It is neither a new enough release to be culturally relevant, nor it is not old enough to possess any kind of nostalgic or historical charm. It simply exists within the vaguely dusted era of “early xbox 360 games,” paling in comparison to its two immediate siblings: the much more attractive Skyrim and the infinitely wiser Morrowind.
And yet it’s still my favorite." - Stephen Hilger
IGN : How does the new The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion Remastered, released in 2025 for Xbox Game Pass, Xbox Series X|S, Windows PC, Steam, and PS5, compare to the original 2006 Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion released on Xbox 360, played via Xbox Series X/S Backwards Compatibility?
With The Elder Scrolls 6 still far into the future fans have been taking matters into their own hands with projects like Skyblivion.
Skyblivion remakes Oblivion in Skyrim's engine, and the huge mod is nearing completion, but the team could use some assistance.
