Earlier this year, Bethesda announced it would be bringing The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered to the Switch 2 in 2026.

Now, in an update, the game’s Deluxe Edition has been rated by the ESRB. There’s also a rating for the standard version of the game. It’s got a mature rating and contains blood and gore, sexual themes and violence.

This title was originally announced for the Switch 2 in February. As noted in our previous story, Bethesda confirmed the game would be distributed physically as a code-in-box release at a later date.

Keep in mind, there’s no specific release date for Oblivion Remastered on the Switch 2 just yet, but hopefully, this is a sign that the title isn’t too far away. This same game was released for Xbox, PlayStation and PC in April 2025.

Admittedly, it wasn’t in the best state on arrival, but received multiple updates to improve the overall experience. Here’s what Push Square had to say about the PS5 version on release:

“Oblivion Remastered is a welcome reminder of just how special the 2006 RPG can be. Performance issues and tedious design elements aside, Virtuos and Bethesda deserve real credit for bringing Oblivion back in such a way that doesn’t detract from the original vision, and the meme-worthy identity that it’s fostered over the years. This is, arguably, the definitive Oblivion experience — or at least it will be, once the awkward wrinkles have been ironed out.”

Just when you thought Minecraft couldn’t possibly exist on another platform, a rating board comes along to suggest otherwise.

The ESRB website has been updated with a Minecraft listing specifically for Switch 2 — a different listing to the ones for PS5 and Switch/Xbox Series (thanks for the heads up, Nintendo Everything). It’s another E10+ for fantasy violence and in-game purchases, naturally, but it also suggests that maybe (maybe) another Nintendo Switch 2 Edition could be on the way.

Nothing has been officially confirmed at the time of writing, though the presence of a separate listing has us wondering whether we might soon see Mojang’s magnum opus come to the new system. A visual bump and mouse controls could go a long way, you know!

Of course, the game is already technically available on Switch 2 through the magic of Switch 1 backwards compatibility, so we suppose there’s a chance that this might just be an update. Then again, we wouldn’t expect to see a whole new page just for the S2 in this instance.

We’ll consider things with a firm pinch of salt, for the time being. The rating comes just days after the weekend’s Minecraft Live event revealed new mobs, biomes, a Dungeons sequel and an updated look at the second movie.
