15 years after its initial release on PC and Xbox 360, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered was launched for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X about two months ago, allowing fans of the Bethesda game ample time to delve into it and reflect on the enhanced RPG experience. Interestingly, even after all this time, one player seems to have stumbled upon new content within the game, which could be a result of an unintended occurrence and what appears to be a glitch.
On the Reddit forum dedicated to Oblivion, a user recently revealed finding an enigmatic door hidden within an Oblivion gate they stumbled upon after unintentionally passing through a collapsed tower. Notably, this door cannot be opened. This wasn’t just a fresh find for the player, but for the entire Reddit community. If even dedicated Oblivion enthusiasts were unaware of its existence, then it is likely that this secret has remained undiscovered by most casual players.
As you move your cursor over the Daedric door, “The Lost Citadel” title becomes visible, accompanied by a message indicating that a key is required to open it. However, if you attempt to search the internet for “The Lost Citadel,” no relevant results will be found.
The first comment says, “I can’t locate any information about ‘The Lost Citadel’ in UESP, it could be a recent find.” The second comment suggests, “It’s possible you’ve uncovered something that’s never been found before.
It appears someone has delved into the game’s code to uncover some information. They’ve verified that this element exists in both the remastered version and the original, but neither contains a key to unlock it. Additionally, it can’t be opened using console commands.
Essentially, here’s what I understand: You’re asking about the purpose or reason for something being there, correct? My interpretation is that this could be remnants of content discarded during development and somehow ended up in an unexpected place. Furthermore, it seems clear that this shouldn’t be where it currently resides because accessing the location would typically cause a glitch in the tower.
It appears that what you see might be leftovers from an abandoned part of the game development that somehow appeared in the wrong place. Accessing its location normally causes problems with the tower.
As of now, neither Bethesda nor any developer involved in the remaster or the original game has provided a comment about this revelation, which leaves Elder Scrolls enthusiasts only to speculate and theorize.
