The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Game of the Year Edition (2009)

Bethesda has officially confirmed that the announcement is scheduled for tomorrow, April 22 at 11:00 AM ET.
People are acting like it's the end of the world because Oblivion Remastered didn't drop today. It's just a delay, not a disaster.​

I shared the leaks and rumors that were circulating, not an official announcement. Speculation is part of the fun in gaming communities.​

Bethesda has officially confirmed that the announcement is scheduled for tomorrow, April 22 at 11:00 AM ET. So, let's all take a deep breath and look forward to the reveal.

1) Insider Leak by “Detective Seeds”

TechI reports that a now‑deleted X (Twitter) post by Detective Seeds claimed the game launches April 21 at 12 PM EST:

6) Insider Updates & Corrections

Detective Seeds admits his April 3 leak was wrong but reiterates “week of April 21”:

DSOGaming reminds us April 3 and 10 passed with no drop, but insiders still point to the 21st:

Bottom Line:
No official word from Bethesda, but Insider posts + Datamines + Official‑looking leaks + Community checks all converge on TODAY at 12:00 PM EST. If the remaster isn’t live by 12:30, we’ll know it was a bust—otherwise, see you in Cyrodiil!

There are no times given.. period. "Week of the 21st" is all we got.
Lol. None of that is proof. Its evidence.

All this proves is that gaming journalism is a joke. Blindly believing whatever unsubstantiated nonsense they read about on the internets without so much as a shred of evidence to back any of it up other than Twitter guy said it might happen.

So many people want to spoil the fun but the evidence is pretty damning.

It is peculiar that Bethesda hasn't come out to quash these rumours
If you all want my opinion, which I am sure you don't, but yes, I believe the remaster is real and I think all these "leaks" are fake. Many companies now use fake leaks to get us to do the leg work of promoting their work.

Marvel uses it all the time and so do games. I am positive that the devs "leaked" their own content to stir up the fire and it has worked VERY well.

why would they care about a bunch of drooling mongs circle jerking over a non existing remake which they never talked about
it's incredible how you guys are delusional and will believe internet rumors like some sort of sacred text when i see stuff like ' REDDIT CONFIRMED ' ..... this is just sad really
You did a lot of work, putting that together, along with links. I appreciate all that effort. And I took notice that you even stated it's not a guarantee, either. To emphasize, this evidence (along with the links) is not yours, personally. Readers should understand this is not proof but only evidence. And that, if it should turn out the game doesn't drop today, you should not be criticized for "being wrong." But let's hope it all co.es to fruition.
