The rumor that The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion remake will release on April 3, 2025, has gained traction recently, but its credibility remains questionable. The speculation originates from leakers such as Detective Seeds, who suggested a potential shadow drop of the game on April 3. This claim has been echoed by various outlets and insiders, including NateTheHate, who previously adjusted the game’s release window from June to April based on insider information.

As plans stand: Both the release and reveal are targeting next month (April). The gap between the reveal and release will be minimal -- a shadow drop is possible. https://t.co/ex0QenFBn9
The rumored remake is said to be a significant overhaul of the 2006 classic, reportedly developed by Virtuos using Unreal Engine 5. Alleged updates include improved visuals, gameplay tweaks, and a modernized HUD. However, despite these claims, there has been no official confirmation or promotional material from Bethesda or Microsoft.
