Journalist Jeff Grubb spoke about The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion’s rumoured remake on a recent episode of his daily Giant Bomb news podcast, GameBreaking News, where he claimed it’s scheduled to release sometime during the week of April 21- i.e., the final week of the month. An exact release date is still unknown, but the window’s certainly narrowed down, and it looks like it won’t be long before the game releases. 

Prior leaks have claimed that the Oblivion remake will be a fully overhauled version of the game, built on Unreal Engine 5 and featuring a reworked stamina system, new UI, reworked archery and blocking mechanics, and more. Read more on that through here.

Caught by VGC, on a recent Giant Bomb livestream, Grubb claimed that the Virtuos-developed remake is going to “shadow drop at any moment,” with a release allegedly due for some time this month. That, incidentally, aligns with recent claims by prominent leaker NateTheHate. 

The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion’s remake has allegedly been developed in Unreal Engine 5, and on top of a visual and technical overhaul, it features various gameplay improvements. The title will reportedly feature changes to stealth mechanics, the UI, stamina management, archery, some aspects of melee combat, and more. Read more on that through here.

Which platforms the remake will launch is unknown. However, based on Microsoft’s increasing multiplatform focus, it wouldn’t be surprising to see it arrive on all available platforms day and date. Stay tuned for more updates.

Taking to Twitter, the leaker recently claimed that the remake will be officially announced as soon as either this month or April, and that it will release earlier than June, which was the original internal target. Interestingly, the leaker’s claims have also been corroborated by VGC, which claims the game would even release sometime next month.

The Oblivion remake is allegedly being developed on Unreal Engine 5, with several major gameplay changes also being implemented, according to leaks from earlier in the year.

Given Microsoft’s shifting strategy over the past year, presumably, Oblivion will be a multiplatform title day and date. We should know for sure one way or another when the announcement arrives, so stay tuned for further details.

Either this month or next month. Release is likely to be sooner than the original June target; but still working to get details on an updated release date.

According to VGC, the company’s goals with opening an office in South Korea revolve around wanting to better manage its worldwide reach while also being able to work on “unique challenges” that South Korea-based studios often face.

“Gaming is deeply ingrained in Korean culture. As the world’s fourth-largest games market, South Korea has produced some of the world’s biggest hits and remains a top gaming hub,” said Virtuos Seoul general manager Sean Yoon in a statement.

“Establishing the physical studio in Seoul enables Virtuos to directly address the unique challenges faced by Korean studios, with the proximity facilitating closer co-development and collaboration. We look forward to helping bring more Korean games to the global stage and vice versa, unlocking new audiences for studios and new content for players alike.”

The next major title to feature Virtuos as part of its development credits, Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater, is coming to PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X/S on August 28. This release date was announced through a trailer showcased back in February and showcases some of the locations, bosses, and characters.

The trailer ended by revealing that the PC and PS5 versions of Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater will feature the return of the classic Snake vs Monkey game mode. The Xbox Series X/S version of the game, however, will be replacing Snake vs Monkey with Snake vs Bomberman.

On the PC side of things, hardware requirements for Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater were also revealed in February. You can check out more details on the minimum and recommended specs here.

A ground-up remake of classic stealth game Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater, Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater will be a 1-to-1 recreation using modern technology. It will also feature modern features, including a new over-the-shoulder angle and control scheme.

Konami released a trailer back in November that showcased how the upcoming title will be a visual upgrade over the PS2 original. It also revealed that EVA is voiced by Jodi Bensen while Lori Alan reprises her role as The Boss.

While neither Konami nor Nintendo have confirmed this yet, Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater is also rumoured to be in development for the Nintendo Switch 2. More details on that will likely be revealed during the April 2 Direct where Nintendo plans on showcasing the console in greater detail.

More interestingly, however, is one of the screenshots giving us a glimpse at the Snake vs Monkey mode. Originally a fun optional game mode in Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater, the Snake vs Monkey mode that would appear in the remake was unveiled in a recently leaked trailer.

Aside from showcasing high-definition Ape Escape monkeys, the screenshot also gives us a look at the banana-print camouflage that players can unlock for use in the main game.

A recently-leaked trailer revealed that Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater would be coming to PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X/S on August 28. The trailer also gave us a look at various parts of the game, including Cobra Unit bosses like The Fear, The End, The Pain and The Fury.

Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater is a remake of PS2 stealth-action title Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater. Along with new visuals, the remake will provide a host of new quality-of-life features, including a modern control style and a third-person over-the-shoulder camera.

While Konami itself is yet to confirm the release date, there are also rumours that the company is working on bringing the title to the Nintendo Switch 2.

There’s quite a lot revealed, including the revamped looks for the Cobra Unit. The gang is all here, from The Fury and The Fear to The Pain and The End (bulging eye intact). If that wasn’t enough, the Snake vs Monkey mini-game, which served as a crossover with Ape Escape 3, is included. Stay tuned for more details and an official announcement in the coming days.

As the name implies, Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater is based on the 2004 stealth action-adventure classic. The visuals have been remade from the ground-up on Unreal Engine 5, with Virtuos providing development support. There are also numerous quality of life additions including a new Modern control style with an over-the-shoulder perspective, a compass, Quick-Dial, and much more.

Of course, those who want to play earlier can pick up the Premium Edition for $49.99. It features five days of advanced access, Immortal Pillars, Gods Pack: Freyr and Legacy Deity Portraits Pack. Access to a second unannounced expansion is also included.

The PS5 version will include all previously released updates and features cross-platform play. Even better, all versions will have update parity, ensuring they receive the latest patches simultaneously.

As for Immortal Pillars, it includes 12 new playable gods, including Fuxi, Nüwa, Gonggong, and Zhurong, with different powers and mythological units like Yazi, Zhuque, and Taou. There’s also a new campaign based on Chinese mythology, spanning nine levels and seven new maps. Check out the trailer below to see it in action.

That’s as per journalist Tom Warren, who has claimed in newsletter on The Verge that the open world action RPG remake is targeting a release sometime in late Spring or early Summer, based on what he’s been told.

Rumours first emerged in 2023 that Bethesda’s acclaimed 2006 RPG was being remade in collaboration with Virtuos. The project allegedly uses a combination of the original title’s engine and Unreal Engine 5. A recent report claimed that the remake will feature several gameplay enhancements, with reworks for blocking, stamina mechanics, archery, sneaking mechanics, and more.

Earlier this month, a Virtuos employee’s LinkedIn project made mention of an unannounced Unreal Engine 5 remake, further adding fuel to the rumours surrounding the Oblivion remake. Read more on that through here.

Known leaker NateTheHate recently claimed in his podcast that Konami is working on a Nintendo Switch 2 version of its upcoming remake, Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater. The leaker stated that he was unsure of whether the game would see a day and date on the Switch 2 alongside other platforms. As you’d imagine, that would depend entirely on when the game releases.

And when will it release? Konami hasn’t said much on that front but recently seemed to suggest that the game – officially in development for PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC – will arrive sometime this year. 

As for the Nintendo Switch 2, it’s claimed that the console will be officially unveiled at long last later this week, so stay tuned for more details. 

Omitting their name for the sake of privacy, MP1st noted a description on their website reportedly confirming that the title is “fully remade” in Unreal Engine 5. Several changes to Sneak, Blocking, Archery, Hit Reaction, the HUD, and Stamina are also allegedly listed.

Some more notable improvements include inspiration from Souls-like titles for blocking, highlighted Sneak icons, and making it much more difficult to get knocked down when Stamina is fully depleted. Hit reactions for combat, improvements to Archery, and a more “aesthetically pleasing” HUD are also reportedly included.

With a Virtuos Shanghai employee also confirming work on an unannounced Unreal Engine 5 remake, the stage is seemingly set for The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion remake’s announcement. It’s allegedly launching in June after its announcement this month, so stay tuned for more details.
