This mysterious insider says that Virtuos runs multiple projects, not just one or two. The much-awaited remake of Metal Gear Solid 3 is definitely one of them. But here's where it gets super exciting – they're apparently working on a project codenamed 'Altar'. And this 'Altar' project is raising eyebrows because it's said to be either a full-blown remake or a jaw-dropping remaster of The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion!
Now, here's what really has our gaming hearts pounding with excitement. The 'Altar' project is supposedly going to use a mind-blowing 'pairing system'. Imagine this – they're planning to combine the power of the Unreal Engine 5 with the original Oblivion engine! Can you believe it? That means we could get stunningly gorgeous graphics from Unreal Engine 5, while still experiencing the nostalgic gameplay and physics that made Oblivion so special.
But hang on, there's more! The Reddit user even spilled some beans on the possible release window for this thrilling project. Brace yourselves, my fellow adventurers, as the 'Altar' project could grace our gaming screens by the end of 2024 or early 2025. Of course, it all depends on whether they decide to go all out with a remake or simply dazzle us with a remaster. Time will tell, my friends!
As we excitedly wait for official word from Virtuos, let's not forget that they've got some other intriguing projects up their sleeves. We're talking about a mysterious game codenamed 'Massive', which they're calling a thrilling mash-up of "Monster Hunter" and "Shadow of the Colossus". Talk about an epic gaming experience in the making!
But that's not all! Virtuos seems to have more surprises lined up. How about an expansion for Amazon's popular MMO, "New World"? Yes, they're apparently working on that too! And there's another mysterious project, aptly called 'Ominous', which promises to take us on a gripping narrative-driven climbing adventure. We're already hooked!
Now, we can't wrap this up without acknowledging that these exciting claims align with what we've heard before. Back in October 2021, reports started swirling about Virtuos's involvement in the Metal Gear Solid 3 remake. And guess what? In May 2023, Konami finally spilled the beans and confirmed the remake, titled "Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater". Woohoo!
So, there you have it, gamers! While we're all practically losing our minds with anticipation for the Metal Gear Solid 3 remake, the possibility of a remake or remaster of The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion is beyond thrilling. Let's keep our eyes and ears peeled for any official announcements from Virtuos and Konami.
