Bethesda Game Studios is thanking players–all 9 million of them–for checking out The Elder Scrolls VI: Oblivion Remastered. The milestone comes just a bit over three months since the RPG arrived on April 22. It’s worth noting that the game surprise-launched on Game Pass for PC and Xbox Series X|S, alongside digital versions on those platforms plus PS5.
The Oblivion Remastered achievement was shared on BlueSky by Bethesda, with the company adding: “Thank you for sharing in our worlds.” Developer Virtuos was actually behind the new version of the game, which originally launched in 2006 on PC and Xbox 360. The studio saw mass layoffs earlier this month, including job cuts at the French office of Virtuos that worked on Oblivion Remastered.
To everyone who emerged as a hero of Kvatch, mastered Arch-Mage, rose to Grand Champion, banished the Blackwood Company, gallivanted as the Gray Fox, and listened to the Night. Thank you for sharing in our worlds. ❤️

Oblivion Remastered received update 1.2 a couple of weeks ago. The patch introduced a sixth difficulty option for players to choose from, with Journeyman fitting between Adept and Expert. In addition, Oblivion Remastered saw a laundry list of performance and gameplay fixes–as well as stealthily addressing a major Dark Brotherhood mishap.
So far, Oblivion Remastered sits at the No. 2 spot for best-selling game in 2025, showcasing the success of the spruced-up RPG. GameSpot’s Oblivion Remastered review specifically pointed out the “astounding visual presentation” for the game.
