One of the worst-kept secrets in videogames finally broke cover today, with Bethesda both revealing and shadow-dropping the remaster of The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion. The game comes with a $50 price tag (and is also available on Game Pass), which some weren't expecting, but despite that has instantly shot to the top of Steam's best-seller list.
I won't be able to dive in myself till this evening, but the reveal makes this look a little bit more like a remake than a remaster, if we're splitting hairs. The big question among fans will be whether this shiny and polished new version of the game retains the absurdity of the 2006 original which, with the best will in the world, was constantly a funny experience even when it didn't mean to be.
