It’s been a long time coming, but Bethesda has finally announced that theFallout 3downloadable content Xbox 360 and PC owners have been playing for quite a while now will soon be making it to PlayStation 3.
First up isOperation: Anchorage, which will be out in late June, then there’sThe PittandBroken Steel, whichwill be released 4-6 weeks apart. But that’s not all: there are also two new DLC packs planned for all three platforms.
Point Lookoutbrings players to a brand new swamp area, whileMothership Zetafollows up on aFallout 3easter egg and involves you getting abducted by aliens. Both add-ons will cost $9.99 and will be available through token cards at retail as well as through PSN and the Xbox Marketplace.
For players on an Xbox 360 or PC,Point Lookoutwill be out in late June, but the PlayStation 3 release won’t be until after the first three content packs are available for download. As forMothership Zeta, it won’t be playable until late July for 360 and PC, with the PS3 version planned for sometime afterPoint Lookoutis up on PSN.
Hit the break for more.
With so many DLC packs in the works, you better believe Bethesda is going to be hitting retail hard. On May 26,Fallout 3 Game Add-on Pack #1will make it to stores in the form of a disc containingOperation: AnchorageandThe Pittfor $9.99.
Likewise,Fallout 3 Game Add-on Pack #2will containBroken SteelandPoint Lookout(also for $9.99) and can be found in stores starting in August. Interestingly enough, these two offerings will only pertain to Xbox 360 and PC. Bethesda says “retail versions of the game add-on packs for PS3are not possible,” so PS3 owners will only be able to grab the DLC from the PlayStation Network.
Finally,Fallout 3:Game of the Year Editionis coming in October, and it’s going to be one hell of a deal. For $59.99 on both consoles and $49.99 on PC, you get the core game plus all fiveFallout 3DLC packs. Damn!
