- After just one week on sale, the remastered version of The Elder Scrolls IV secured the position of the third top-selling game in the US for 2025, with sales data recorded through April 26.

- This strong performance suggests sustained interest in a nearly 20-year-old RPG, fulfilling player demand ahead of Elder Scrolls VI and indicating potential continued sales growth.
