2006 – Today

Oblivion logo

The Oblivion logo, as well as all the logos of The Elder Scrolls series, is fully based on a Daedric alphabet. Both the inscription and the game’s symbol are drawn in one style, which reflects the essence of the famous game.

The Oblivion logo is composed of a nameplate with an enlarged emblem under it. The wordmark in all capitals is executed in a custom serif typeface with thick uneven lines and a metal three-dimensional texture.

The Oblivion emblem is a letter “O” or “Oht” of the Daedric alphabet, which is the ancient one. There is no Daedric language, it is more a symbolic thing, which looks like runes.

The Oht looks like a lowercase “N” with it too flattened and a solid dot inside. This symbol works for both the Oblivion Game and the Oblivion Gates.

The color palette of the Oblivion logo is a dark metal on a light beige background. There are some red accents on the emblem, symbolizing blood, but it does not look threatening at all, it evokes a sense of interest and mystery.
