TL;DR: The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered shot to #3 on US 2025 sales charts (dollar-wise) just one week after launch, only trailing Monster Hunter: Wilds and Assassin’s Creed: Shadows. Circana analyst Mat Piscatella notes that while a vocal 10% of “hyper-enthusiasts” grumble about remasters, they still buy them—and the rest of the console crowd either digs the fancier graphics or never strays from Fortnite, GTA, CoD, Minecraft and Roblox.
On PSN Profiles it even topped weekly playtime, outpacing AC Shadows globally, and on Steam it peaked at 216,784 concurrent users despite hefty Unreal Engine 5 ray-tracing demands. For context, fellow Bethesda hit Starfield reached 330,723, whereas Indiana Jones, Hi-Fi Rush and Redfall barely cracked 12K.
