Oblivion Remastered Players Recreate Hilarious Darth Kermit Meme
April 29, 2025
Players diving into the newly released Oblivion Remastered have already begun making the game their own — and the first viral hit might be one of the strangest yet. This week, players recreated the famous ‘Darth Kermit’ meme inside the sprawling RPG, merging modding creativity with meme culture in a way only Elder Scrolls fans could pull off.
The Darth Kermit meme, originally a humorous mashup showing the lovable Muppet as a dark Sith Lord, has found new life within the world of Tamriel thanks to the modding tools included with Oblivion Remastered. Using a combination of character modeling tools, shader tweaks, and a custom cloaked frog model, players managed to summon a disturbingly accurate version of “Dark Side Kermit” — complete with sinister robes and a glowing red lightsaber replacement spell.
Screenshots and clips of the in-game Kermit have exploded across Reddit, X (formerly Twitter), and TikTok, showing the cloaked frog sneaking through the Imperial City, battling guards, and even shouting Sith-like dialogue through in-game text mods. One viral clip shows “Darth Kermit” standing on the White Gold Tower, delivering a twisted parody of the classic “Do it” meme line.
Community reactions have been overwhelmingly positive, with fans praising both the technical skill involved and the sheer absurdity of bringing such a chaotic meme into the otherwise lore-heavy world of Oblivion. Some modders are even working on expanding the concept, suggesting full “Muppet Sith” companion mods could be the next wave of custom content.
Oblivion Remastered, released earlier this month, offers a modern overhaul of Bethesda’s beloved 2006 RPG, with rebuilt graphics, streamlined combat, and full modding support on both PC and next-gen consoles. The modding community wasted no time in testing the limits of the new Creation Engine updates — and if Darth Kermit is any sign, the golden age of ridiculous Elder Scrolls mods is back in full swing.
Whether you fear him or laugh at him, Darth Kermit’s reign over Cyrodiil has officially begun. Long may he meme.
