In much the same way, a single rumor set off a chain reaction. Following the unexpected release of Oblivion Remastered yesterday, gamers are once again exploring the realm of Tamriel, marveling at the improved visuals and gameplay adjustments that have given this contemporary rendition of the 2006 original a fresh lease of life.
T Oblivion Remastered, as suggested by user u/eXtas1stv. They assert that Bethesda and Virtuos Studios are reportedly working on the game for this platform. It’s speculated that they may aim to launch it either during or shortly after the Nintendo Switch 2’s release date.

Yesterday’s grand game launch was almost perfect, except for one thing: there’s no Switch 2 version available yet. Interestingly, even the PlayStation 5, which is in direct competition with Xbox, got a remastered version priced at $50. If you’re an Xbox Game Pass subscriber, you can play it for free. For PC gamers without a subscription, it’s available on Steam for the same $50.
Bypassing the initial Nintendo Switch seems reasonable due to its hardware constraints. However, with the upcoming release of the Switch 2, Oblivion Remastered might be a worthwhile acquisition. The game utilizes Unreal Engine 5, and titles like Split Fiction from Hazelight Studios (a strong contender for Game of the Year)—which are also based on this engine—have already been confirmed for the Switch 2.
Bethesda has previously made its mark in the Nintendo Switch environment as well. For instance, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, which was initially released, underwent an upgrade for the Switch with improved graphics, user-friendly enhancements, and even some unique Link of Zelda collaborative content.
Transitioning Oblivion Remastered onto Nintendo Switch 2 seems like a logical move for Bethesda, given their aim to leverage the console’s advanced hardware and versatile capabilities that cater to both home and portable gaming.
It’s possible that this rumor is true, indicating a potential closer collaboration between Microsoft and the Switch 2, potentially making it easier for major titles like Hi-Fi Rush from Tango Gameworks, DOOM: The Dark Ages, and even Starfield to be played on Nintendo’s next-gen console.
The cost for the Switch 2 edition of Oblivion Remastered hasn’t been officially announced yet, but based on current market standards, you should anticipate a price ranging from around $60 to $70.
