[Robert Garcia]

Official information
Officially called Dragonborn.
Sadly, on 360, presumably, as a 30 exclusive 360, on December 4th 2012 for 1600 Microsoft Points.
It is marketed as a game Add-On, like Dawnguard. Hearthfire was not. Take what you will from that....

Observations
Video contains information about some ex-Dragon-Priest-come-hipster-Dragonborn who ruled over Solstheim and liked to eat dragons. He makes a return in Dragonborn.

Speculation
Boat Arrival into what is likely where Raven Rock was.
Antagonist is a former Dragon Priest, as well as the first Dragonborn and had dominion over Solstheim
Redoran Architecture present in walled city.
Giant Mushroom foilage. Terraformed Solstheim or Nothern coast of Morrowind?
Several new Daedra - One of which looks eerily like the Sixth House priests in service to Dagoth Ur

Info found in 1.8 CK update
Player dragon mounts are in.
2 new Achievements are Solstheim Explorer, of which you need to discover 30 locations, and Stalhrim Crafter

Info found in 1.8 Updates
The next DLC will be called Dragonborn and it will be set on the island of http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:Solstheim.
The main locations you will be able to visit are http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Bloodmoon:Raven_Rock, Miraak Temple, http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Bloodmoon:Castle_Karstaag and a Telvanni tower (N.B.: Not the Telvanni Tower seen in Morrowind in Vivec, but http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Morrowind:Tel_Uvirith).
There will be some new armor types, http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Morrowind:Bonemold, http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Morrowind:Chitin, http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Morrowind:Nordic and http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Bloodmoon:Raw_Stalhrim each having heavy and light classifications.
Out of these new materials, you will be able to craft new types items out of two of them, namely Stalhrim and Nordic.
http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Morrowind:Spears will be added along with an array of new creatures/automotons, http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:Riekling#Riekling, http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:Scrib#Scrib, http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Morrowind:Netch#Netch, http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:Boar#Boar, Benthic Lurker, Ballista Centurion, and something with an internal name of HMDaedra, quite possibly referring to http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:Hermaeus_Mora since it lists his plane of oblivion, Apocrypha. You will also be able to ride dragons and be in combat while mounted on one.

http://i.imgur.com/gF1hJ.png is what the quest header for Dragonborn Quests will look like, and http://i.imgur.com/AJu91.png is what the compass markers look like for the new locations.
From the top, clockwise: Telvanni Tower, To Solstheim, Raven Rock, Castle Karstaag, Standing Stones, To Skyrim, Miraak Temple.

There will be at least two new tracked stats: Dragonborn Quests Completed, and Stalhrim Items Crafted

You will travel to Solstheim via a boat, much like you did in Bloodmoon, although this time, it looks like you may at least get a partial visual boat ride.
The Telvanni tower has float up and down animations, so no levitation it seems.
Dragon riding will take place in its own world space

Mounted combat looks like it's getting an improvement with the ability to cast spells while mounted, tihs isn't necessarily a Dragonborn only thing though!

It appears that Update 1.8 readies Skyrim for PS3 DLC.

Misinformation:
Weapon degrading -- There's nothing to indicate this is added, that isn't to say it can't/won't be added however. There was just no "new" information in this update. The degradation stuff seen previously has all been renemants from previous CK games (Fallout)
H2H stuff, That was my diff program messing up, sorry
Release dates -- No one but Bethesda knows!

Other stuff that I can't put my finger on or give intelligent guesses about because of lack of information
Miraak death animation, Chieftain animations, Chisel animations (perhaps new crafting station for the new armor.. doubt it though), Storn Death Reaction animation & Storn Suit Stages, Frea, Pray, StonePickUp, KillMoveDLC02RipHeartOut, TreeAmbush
There also seem to be a lot more animation files for running with weapons. No idea why.
Dwarven Ballista -- Possibly a new trap? http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Dwemer_Ballista#Dwemer_Ballista

All of the above is speculation over new strings found in the files from the 1.8 update, and should not be treated as facts or as any proof that any of it will even make it into the game! (but you all already knew that, didn't you!... Didn't you?) They were found by comparing 1.7.7.0 files with those in 1.8.145.0. The update to the Beta (i.e. 1.8.151.0) gave no new information.

You want proof, look at http://www.gamesas.com/topic/1417392-18-beta-update-solsthiem-dlc-hints-thread-9/page__view__findpost__p__21660925 http://www.gamesas.com/topic/1417392-18-beta-update-solsthiem-dlc-hints-thread-9/page__view__findpost__p__21660876 http://www.gamesas.com/topic/1417175-18-beta-update-solsthiem-dlc-hints/page__view__findpost__p__21656816 http://www.gamesas.com/topic/1417057-time-for-some-spoilers-form-the-latest-beta/page__view__findpost__p__21653361, and http://www.gamesas.com/topic/1417092-hints-found-about-the-next-dlc-found-in-18-beta/page__view__findpost__p__21654653 for dragon riding. Also, http://www.gamesas.com/topic/1421192-18-updatedragonborn-dlc-discussion-thread-43/page__view__findpost__p__21749310 for the CK Update.

Hopefully there are werebears.

[Tiffany Holmes]

So in Dragonborn there are approximately half the locations that were present in Bloodmoon?

[asako]

Is that much? How many are in the base game?

Spoiler

In the vanilla game you needed to discover 100 to get the achievement, so Solstheim is about 1/3rd the size of Skyrim... based on location discoveries

I'm summarising other differences now, give me a few mins.

[josie treuberg]

So in Dragonborn there are approximately half the locations that were present in Bloodmoon?

I guess we'll find out when we get there. I doubt all the locations were revealed in the files/trailer.

[claire ley]

So in Dragonborn there are approximately half the locations that were present in Bloodmoon?

Spoiler

I can't remember visiting 60 locations in Bloodmoon. It felt kind of small... could be wrong of course.

[SWagg KId]

Have to say i love the look of the new architecture in that trailer. Some fantasy in this fantasy game

[Chloe Mayo]

Hey, anybody remember these guys?

There are more than 300 locations in Skyrim.

[Amanda savory]

Ok, Updated OP with info found in CK update.

Looks like player dragon mounts are in "; Allow or disallow player requests to have a flying mount land."
So safe to say that wasn't just an NPC mounting/riding the dragon in the video

[Sherry Speakman]

Nope the ones with cracked skin where the player is holding the reddish 2-handed sword (Gravedigger or King's Oath)

[Lauren Dale]

Look like Ash Slaves to me

[dav]

I fear that Solstheim will be kind of small, and we will be able to traverse it in a short amount of time. But lets not forget we are also going to Hermaeus Mora's realm, so that may have more locations.

[roxanna matoorah]

Could the Dragon pries/dragon born be Konarhrik?

Spoiler

We killed the 8 dragon priests but got Konarhrik's mask as a bonus. In my oppinion he should be alive, maybe he rejected the title of a dragon priest and the mask that comes with it.

figured it out

[Anna Watts]

Hey, anybody remember these guys?

http://images.uesp.net/thumb/1/13/BM-creature-grahl-2.jpg/180px-BM-creature-grahl-2.jpg

Yeah, there were some in http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Bloodmoon:Castle_Karstaag and you had to get them all before you could progress - good times.

[-__^]

The PC is the last Dragonborn. We're now going to be duking it out with the first Dragonborn. We probably should have seen this coming.

[Lily]

Look like Ash Slaves to me

More like simple Corprus Afflicted =)

[Christie Mitchell]

There are more than 300 locations in Skyrim.

Ok maybe I wasn't clear on that. But I think I was. Locations needed to get the achievement...

[Mr. Ray]

The PC is the last Dragonborn. We're now going to be duking it out with the first Dragonborn. We probably should have seen this coming.

I thought we were the only known Dragonborn at this time, not the last one.

[Richard]

So you need 100 for Skyrim, and there may..may be an achievement for finding 30 in the DLC. So there may be more than 30 like there is more than 100 in Skyrim?

[Del Arte]

I thought we were the only known Dragonborn at this time, not the last one.

When misrule takes its place at the eight corners of the world
When the Brass Tower walks and Time is reshaped
When the thrice-blessed fail and the Red Tower trembles
When the Dragonborn Ruler loses his throne, and the White Tower falls
When the Snow Tower lies sundered, kingless, bleeding
The World-Eater wakes, and the Wheel turns upon the Last Dragonborn.

[Richard Thompson]

Hm. 30 locations seem to be not so much, then.
Hopefully Apocrypha will be big enough to compensate. If not, this is not our SI equivalent. Not yet.
Maybe there will be a bit of western Morrowind included, after all? With all the Dunmer stuff around now, anyways. /dreaming

Then again, if you need only 30 for an achievement... there could be up to 90 on Solstheim alone, am I right?

[Shelby McDonald]

So you need 100 for Skyrim, and there may..may be an achievement for finding 30 in the DLC. So there may be more than 30 like there is more than 100 in Skyrim?

There is. It's called "Solstheim Explorer" see http://www.gamesas.com/topic/1421192-18-updatedragonborn-dlc-discussion-thread-43/page__view__findpost__p__21749310

[Syaza Ramali]

We are the last.

When misrule takes its place at the eight corners of the world,
When the Brass Tower walks and Time is reshaped,
When the thrice-blessed fail and the Red Tower trembles,
When the Dragonborn ruler loses his throne, and the White Tower falls,
