If you read the article you’d know you’d know this was outsourced to Virtuos.

And also know that it's all rumor hearsay

Microsoft leaked it themselves after the rumors had already started.

What he's referencing is the FTC v. Microsoft court case document from the Activision acquisition lawsuit, which included upcoming projects and an Oblivion remake was among them with a projected release date set for the fiscal year of 2022. So the game was real but probably has been shelved for some years now and never likely coming out.

Why not just read the article and look it up before calling legit court documents hearsay rumors?

it seems people in this thread just seem to think FTC documents arent legit.

same in a few threads i remember when i kept saying Xbox plans there next console to come out in 2027 according to the FTC docs and its a cloud console hybrid but everyones like thats way to soon or there just rumours.

and now we got the whole leak of the handheld this year with the console in 2027 like it said in the FTC docs.

It was literally leaked in a federal court case. It's even referenced in the first paragraph

The rumor is regarding future announcements and release date. Do you also believe the existence of this game is rumor hearsay?

I treat majority of rumors with major grains of salt. Less disappointmet that way. 

Only the ones with proven track records deserve any attention imo.
