Xbox and Bethesda celebrate 4 million Oblivion Remastered players in just 3 days: “That’s a lot of cheese wheels in pockets”
As a gaming enthusiast, I can confidently say that Oblivion Remastered has taken the spotlight in the gaming world lately. However, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is also garnering some serious attention and recognition it deserves. In fact, Bethesda and Xbox recently shared on social media that the remastered game has already reached an impressive milestone – 4 million players within just three days of its launch!
A tweet from Bethesda expresses heartfelt appreciation to the more than 4 million of you who’ve already explored Cyrodiil using Oblivion Remastered: “Your support is greatly appreciated!
As a gamer, I felt a virtual pat on the back from Xbox, alluding to the Elder Scrolls’ infamous cheese wheels, they said, “Looks like you’ve got a pocket full of cheese wheels! Massive congratulations!
Pondering for a moment, it’s clear that this remaster has achieved remarkable success across all measurable aspects. However, it’s equally important to acknowledge that its immense influence has negatively affected some developers who were unprepared for its sudden release, known as “shadow dropping.
Since its release on April 22, Oblivion Remastered has been met with nearly unanimous praise from both critics and players, topping the Steam charts, and it appears that sales are skyrocketing, much like how cheese-flavored pancakes might fly off a breakfast menu.
It wasn’t destined to happen. We’ve witnessed numerous flawed remakes, updates, and portings of cherished games, which should have suggested that Oblivion: Remastered was not an automatic victory for Xbox and Bethesda. However, it seems they got it right by painstakingly revamping the old game over a long period, incorporating significant quality-of-life enhancements without altering the fundamental structure of the game, and launching it in a satisfactory condition across all platforms. Who would have thought that this strategy would lead to success?
