Take heed, noble warriors, for The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered was confirmed as coming to Nintendo Switch 2. When? Alas, therein lies the rub, as it has been labeled with a pesky, nebulous release window of 2026 and not an actual launch date. But hey, in the meanwhile, check out the trailer:

Here’s a bit more about the game, straight from the press release:

Return to exploring the vast landscape of Cyrodiil like never before when the renowned open world fantasy RPG returns with improved graphics and enhanced gameplay. Players and newcomers alike are invited to journey through the rich world in this modernized 2006 Game of the Year. With stunning new visuals and performance, the game has been meticulously recreated from scratch. Characters, weapons, pieces of cheese, even sweet rolls. Experience all that this beloved classic has to offer with previously released story expansions of the Shivering Isles and Knights of the Nine, and more.

Oblivion has a very large following, with some preferring it to the mega hit The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. You can find out which camp you’re in later this year when the game launches. Or maybe you’ve already decided? Why not share your Oblivion opinions down in the comments!
