Bethesda’sFallout 3set the bar for post-release support in this console generation with its robust package of five add-ons: “Operation: Anchorage,” “The Pitt,” “Broken Steel,” “Point Lookout,” and “Mothership Zeta.” When I askedFallout: New Vegassenior producer Jason Bergman if DLC would be coming for that game, too, here was his excited-but-short-on-details reply: “Yes! Yes, we do! That is the answer to that question!”
He wouldn’t go into specifics, except to assure me that Obsidian and Bethesda are “working on getting the game out the door first.” But in case you were wondering, plans are certainly in place to put outNew Vegasadd-ons “after the fact.”
We likely won’t have to wait too long after the game’sOctober 19th releasefor the first DLC to hit. When I guessed out loud thatNew Vegasadd-ons would be coming “way down the line,” Bergman corrected me: “Notwaydown the line, but down the line.” So if you’re worried about running out ofNew Vegascontent to explore, don’t be. If anything, if you complete the game quickly, you can try a second play-through onHardcore Modeto fill the gap.
