Oblivion Remaster Surprise-Launches Today On Game Pass, Also Available On PS5
The long-rumored Elder Scrolls remaster was announced today, and it's out now
A digital deluxe edition ($60) is available as well. This includes, you guessed it, horse armor sets, along with special armors and weapons. Players also get a digital artbook and a soundtrack app, along with the Fighter's Stronghold expansion, Spell Tome Treasures, Vile Lair, Mehrune's Razor, The Thieves Den, Wizard’s Tower, Orrery, and Horse Pack Armor.
A remaster of Oblivion has been rumored for years, dating back to when it was first mentioned in the court documents that came out of the Microsoft vs. FTC case. The surprise-launch is not shocking, either, as that's exactly what reports said would happen with this title.
In addition to launching on PC, Oblivion was an Xbox exclusive on console when it debuted in 2006, before coming to PS3 in 2007. The open-world RPG is fondly remembered for its story and gameplay--and infamously for its horse armor, which was a prominent early example of DLC. Bethesda boss Todd Howard later reflected on the horse armor, saying "people will buy anything."
Bethesda followed up Oblivion with the enormously popular The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim in 2011. Bethesda is now working on The Elder Scrolls VI, but there is no word yet on when it might be released.
