When it comes toThe Elder Scrollsfranchise, most of the attention is given toSkyrim, the latest game in the long-running series. However,The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivioncertainly has its legion of dedicated fans who are still playing years after release or remember their time with the game fondly. One suchElder Scrollsfan is Melegie, a YouTuber who is known for playing songs on their Celtic harp.
In Melegie’s latest video, the YouTuber playsThe Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion’s Harvest Dawn song on their harp. TheOblivionHarvest Dawn song is one of the most recognizable tracks from the game. Many fans associate the song withThe Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion’s NPCs, as it often plays in the background while they are talking to the player character. And as a result, the song can also be heard in manyElder ScrollsmemessurroundingOblivion’s quirky NPCs as well.

The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivionand its soundtrack may not get nearly as much attention asSkyrim, but as Melegie’s performance illustrates, the game still has its dedicated fans. Many of these fans have been asking for anElder Scrolls 4: Oblivionremasterfor modern platforms, though nothing like that has materialized to date.
While there is noElder Scrolls 4: Oblivionremaster to play, the game is still readily available on modern platforms. In fact,The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivioncan be played on a console as new as the Xbox Series X thanks to its backward compatibility program. Not only that, but those interested in revisiting the classic game can do so at a very low cost asOblivionis part of Xbox Game Pass, just like most other Bethesda-owned games.
When it comes toOblivion, there are many reasons whyElder Scrollsfans still hold the game in such high regard.Oblivion’s Dark Brotherhood questlineis often considered one of the better faction quests in the franchise, plus there is significant environmental variety compared toSkyrim, which is set in a region that’s mostly snowy and mountainous.Oblivionhas plenty of popular and recognizable NPCs as well, like the obnoxious Arena fan, who still pops up in memes to this day.
MaybeElder Scrollsfans will one day get theirOblivionremaster, but if it does come, it won’t necessarily be made by Bethesda. Now that Microsoft owns Bethesda, it could theoretically hand the keys over to another studio while Bethesda works on games like 2022’sStarfieldor theupcomingElder Scrolls 6. That way fans can enjoy classicElder Scrollsgames while waiting for Bethesda’s new titles to come out.
The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivionis out now for PC, PS3, and Xbox 360.
