Finding a physical copy of the Oblivion Remastered Switch 2 edition has been a real challenge since the game arrived on Nintendo's handheld this summer. Following a surprise shadow drop on other platforms last year, the Switch 2 release quickly vanished from store shelves.

Fortunately, patient players now have another chance to grab the game at its standard retail price. The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered Deluxe Edition, which is the only version available on the console, has returned to stock online.
Where to Find the Oblivion Remastered Switch 2 Restock
Right now, Amazon appears to be the only major US retailer with the Oblivion Remastered Switch 2 physical edition available to order. Meanwhile, Walmart, Target, Best Buy, and GameStop all list the game as unavailable both online and in stores.
Amazon currently lists the Deluxe Edition at its intended $59.99 MSRP, though the storefront frames it as a discount from $89.97 due to months of inflated pricing. On second-hand marketplaces like eBay, most copies have been selling for $80 or more—at least $20 above retail.
Because there is no telling how long this latest batch of inventory will last, anyone still holding out for a physical copy should act quickly.
Why the Physical Cartridge Is in High Demand
Beyond simple scarcity driving up FOMO among collectors, the Switch 2 release has a major technical advantage. The entire game fits directly onto the cartridge, meaning you can plug it in and start playing without waiting for extra downloads.
That convenience is a huge plus if you have not yet expanded your console's storage with a microSD Express card. Keeping a massive open-world RPG off your internal drive leaves plenty of room for digital-only titles.
Everything Included in the Deluxe Edition
This release is a modernized remaster of the 2006 classic, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. In IGN's review, writer Travis Northup praised it as a nostalgic adventure that preserves what made the original special while smoothing out rough edges like the leveling system.
In addition to the base game, the Switch 2 Deluxe Edition packs in the Shivering Isles and Knights of the Nine story expansions. You also get classic downloadable add-ons including Fighter's Stronghold, Spell Tomes, Vile Lair, Mehrune's Razor, The Thieves Den, Wizard's Tower, The Orrery, and the Horse Armor Pack.
Finally, the package throws in unique digital Akatosh and Mehrunes Dagon armor, weapon, and horse armor sets, giving returning heroes and newcomers alike plenty of gear to discover across Cyrodiil.
