Summary

  • Shirley Curry, AKA Skyrim Grandma, is playing Oblivion Remastered, sharing her experiences with her fans.
  • Fans have helped Shirley navigate the game while exploring caves and learning combat.
  • The upcoming Elder Scrolls 6 will include a character based on Shirley.

Grandma Skyrim has just begun exploring “The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered,” a game she’s now immersing her followers in her adventures. This is further evidence of the widespread appeal of “Oblivion Remastered,” as the remastered open-world RPG remains one of 2025’s most triumphant video games.

89-year-old YouTube sensation, Shirley Curry (also known as Skyrim Grandma), boasts over 1.3 million subscribers and gained prominence within the community by posting Skyrim gameplay videos since 2015. Her charm and widespread appeal even earned her an in-game character modeled after her, appearing in the yet-to-be-released The Elder Scrolls 6.

Hey there! Even though I thought Skyrim Grandma was hanging up her virtual armor for good in 2024, it looks like she’s back in action! She’s diving into Oblivion Remastered now, and already posted two videos. In the first one, she shared her initial thoughts on exploring Cyrodiil outside the game’s starting prison, taking her time to get familiar with the controls and mechanics. The second video, titled “Oblivion Remastered #2 Still Learning,” found her battling rats and goblins in a cave, learning to survive the game’s combat. As anticipated, Skyrim Grandma’s fans have been super supportive so far, offering advice on everything from improving lockpicking skills to resting in the game, using the Claryvoiance spell to find quest objectives, and much more!

Skyrim Grandma is Playing Oblivion Remastered

Playing “Oblivion Remastered” by Shirley underscores the widespread appeal of this open-world game. Although Grandma Skyrim chose not to play “Starfield” on her channel, exploring the recent remaster could be an exciting venture for her followers who have also taken up playing it. Released jointly by Bethesda and Virtuos earlier in 2025, “Oblivion Remastered” was a resounding success, swiftly claiming the third spot among the top-selling games in the United States, trailing only “Monster Hunter Wilds” and “Assassin’s Creed Shadows”.

Looking forward, we can anticipate that Grandma Skyrim will delve into the lands of Cyrodill and embark on numerous journeys while waiting for the unveiling of _The Elder Scrolls 6_. In all probability, she’ll encounter an NPC fashioned after her in the game. However, back in 2022, Shirley urged Todd Howard to speed up the process for _TES 6_, but as it stands, there are no signs of its imminent release; speculations point towards a potential launch in 2026 or later.
