Limbo of the Lost Devs Shamelessly Steal Assets From Oblivion?

Update: Bethesda spokesperson Pete Hines has responded to our mail, noting that “At present we don’t have any comment on this.”
If a number of screenshots from Majestic Studios’ latest PC effort, Limbo of the Lost, are indeed real, it appears that the dev team has ripped in-game assets and copied level designs from Bethesda Softworks’ best-selling RPG Oblivion.
Ryan Lodata of GamePlasma reviewed the low-profile title just recently and found that it carried a strikingly similar resemblance to Oblivion, which the supplied screenshots prove without a doubt. Limbo of the Lost hit U.S. shelves last May, though we haven’t played the game and as such are unable to comment on the validity of the screens.
Either way, we’ve sent over a mail to Bethesda for comment. Hit the image above for a comparison shot.
