The Emperor from The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion next to a guard.
The rumored Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion remake has been doing the rounds for quite some time, with many genuinely believing it will be announced and promptly shadow-dropped this month. Of course, there is some credence to these rumors, such as the remake's existence being leaked a while ago during Xbox's acquisition of Activision Blizzard and an untitled remake popping up on the LinkedIn profile of a Virtuos employee, the folks believed to be developing the Oblivion remake.
Fortunately, at least according to the rumors, the remake is completely overhauling the base Oblivion experience, its visuals included. It is allegedly being developed in Unreal Engine 5, meaning that there's a very good chance it may be not only the best-looking Elder Scrolls game of all time but also the best-looking Bethesda game.
The Elder Scrolls Oblivion Remake Shouldn't Change The Voice Acting It Is Absolutely Iconic However, as much as the Oblivion remake should alter the majority of the original game's experience, there's one feature it shouldn't tamper with at all: its sound design. Specifically, Oblivion's iconic and endlessly memeable voice acting, as well as its phenomenal score, should be kept entirely intact.
More importantly, games don't really make mistakes like this anymore. Budgets are so high that most games can afford to hire more than 10 voice actors, and QA testing is so thorough, at least, for the most part, that it would be impossible to miss repeated takes in dialogue. There's something rather special about how this part of Oblivion represents the state of the gaming industry at the time and how mistakes like those were really the worst a game could do.
