Oblivion Remaster’s New Record Proves Todd Howards Needs The Elder Scrolls 6 on Game Pass

Xbox is securing victories like no other, especially setting a player count record for both Oblivion Remaster and Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. This success should make Todd Howard realise that The Elder Scrolls 6 should get added to Xbox Game Pass.

Bethesda was doing fine before the

acquisition. But truth be told, it is doing better than before under the new management. Many players opt to play Bethesda-published games through the Game Pass. This doesn’t only include The Elder Scrolls franchise, but Fallout as well.

Not forgetting to mention, Hi-Fi Rush, Deathloop, and more games published through Bethesda Softworks, and all of these titles have done well via the Xbox Game Pass. Just like one plus one makes two, Bethesda should rely on

to release its anticipated RPG on Game Pass.

Oblivion Remaster breaks record for total players on Xbox Game Pass

Hold your horses before you say that nostalgia played a huge factor in Oblivion Remaster’s success. However, this isn’t the only reason, as the revival of the old title was possible for passionate developers who took the task seriously. The total amount of effort that went into it is enough to call it a remake.

Even though the original title was released almost 19 years ago, the craze for it remains the same. Rockstar has the same opportunity with their older GTA titles, but they botched it in the greatest way possible. So no, nostalgia isn’t the only thing that’s required for a remaster’s success.

The hard work was surely admired by the fans, as it managed to have 3.2 million players on Game Pass. The data arrives from Alinea Analytics, which released a

on Clair Obscur and The Elder Scrolls 4 remaster.

Not only that, PlayStation fans dropped their ego to get their hands on Oblivion Remaster. Data suggests that the game sold 590k copies on PlayStation, while Clair Obscur sold 344k copies in Team Blue’s territory. This is not surprising to see at all, as many are considering COE 33 to receive GOTY in 2025.

The Elder Scrolls franchise has considerably more people interested across all platforms, enough to rival GTA 6’s popularity. With that later game being delayed to 2026, it would be a power move for Bethesda to release The Elder Scrolls 6 on Xbox Game Pass to get the upper hand.

With game prices set to go up, it’s best to take the Game Pass route

Following the game price hikes, Game Pass would be the only way, The Elder Scrolls 6 will have success. The gaming community is already skeptical about games being priced at $80, and that will be the reality for all.

Just as Xbox was making a name for itself, it chose to throw it all away by following Nintendo’s footsteps. However, they still have a good chance of being in the game due to Xbox Game Pass. Since it allows players to enjoy multiple games at a cheaper rate.

Maybe the price hikes are way to give consumers a bargain, but it doesn’t seem as viable. If Bethesda wants the success of The Elder Scrolls 6, being on Game Pass will be a huge bonus. Moreover, the success of Oblivion Remaster proves that this can work out.

However, if Xbox decides to increase the subscription prices exceptionally high, it would be a bummer. Year 2026 is still far, so nothing can be said now. However, it’s for sure, it is just the beginning of the biggest price increase of games.

What do you think? Should Xbox make The Elder Scrolls 6 available on Game Pass? Do you think the franchise will be okay without it? Let us know in the comments below.
