Anticipated Remaster of Elder Scrolls IV Revealed; Potential French Release Limitations
Released in 2006, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion stood as a definitive RPG of its time. Fans have long anticipated a remaster, and their hopes were realized in April when Bethesda announced a revamp of the classic title. While The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered is on the horizon, its release comes with specific regional availability that may disappoint some players, particularly in France.
Elder Scrolls IV Oblivion Remastered Deluxe Edition Preorder Available; International Release Expansion Possible
The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered is set to release on October 13, 2025. A physical Deluxe Edition is now available for preorder on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series, priced at £34.95 (approximately €41). This edition includes the remastered game along with a variety of bonus content. The Deluxe Edition features unique quests, additional rewards, an art book, the official soundtrack, the Shivering Isles and Knights of the Nine expansions, and additional content. Currently, this physical edition is exclusively available for preorder in the UK. This means players outside the United Kingdom may not be able to purchase a boxed copy at this time.
