Oblivion Remastered hides a small (or large) nod to Skyrim
, by Thibaut
The vast world of Oblivion is bound to contain secrets and other easter eggs to be discovered everywhere. The Elder Scrolls fans will no doubt be delighted with a reference to the fifth game in the franchise.
If you go north of Cyrodiil, at the map's border, you can see a large mountain in the distance. This is actually the Throat of the World, the highest peak in the Skrim region. Players have the opportunity to climb it in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim during their quest to meet the Greybeards. This wasn't a thing in the original version of Oblivion from 2006.
What's more, since the snow-covered region lies to the north of the continent of Tamriel, we also realize that the northern lights that can be seen in Oblivion only appear in the direction of this region of Skyrim. Virtuos seems to have paid attention to every detail in order to make the universe coherent.
