The first and the second DLC I don't have a clue, but the third will be Nortwest of Hammerfell (from Dragonstar to Elinhir).

Will be directly related with our choices in Civil War in Skyrim.

The bad news: Will be released only in January, 2013.

Hate to burst your bubble, friend... but I don't think they ever said anything about releasing information about DLC in April. Pete Hines tweeted: "Some things coming down the road in April for all you Rage and Skyrim fans. April is gonna have some cool news and surprises." He never mentioned DLC, at least not that I know of. I think the surprise for Skyrim fans was the announcement about Kinect... which is disappointing at best

How do you know that?

Well at least Pete was right. Kinect for Skyrim WAS a suprise. But....meh :/

At this rate the Game Of The Year Edition will have to be released on next gen consoles.

How do you know that?

3rd DLC cominig in 1/13, WTF!!!!!!!!!!! If that's true, when is the next Fallout gonna hit????

» Wed Jun 13, 2012 4:36 am

I'm still angry, Bethesda could release at least ONE picture to show people that there really is something going on...
As far as people know, they could be doing nothing. It's annoying, I want SOME news by now... :/

*sits back and enjoys the show*

Pete just tweeted that he is working on getting out more info on the Skyrim DLC next week *maybe and a release date for the kinect functions. Too lazy to link...

Here's the http://twitter.com/#!/DCDeacon/status/195485886190850048 to that tweet. Made about 1 hour ago.

Has anyone poked around the CK to see if there were any hints of DLC? The only 'clues' we have are the two morrowind gates (and it could be argued that they're there just for immersion, nothing else) and the Windhelm Arena stuff (which is probably just cut content due to the 11/11/11 deadline).

Not sure if there was any truth to post 2 in the link?

One can only hope.

» Wed Jun 13, 2012 8:31 am

Hopefully this week.

Didn't they say the week of 23rd April (22nd April, same thing)?
Or was that another overexcited fan?

» Wed Jun 13, 2012 5:47 am

"I am working on getting a little more info out on Skyrim/DLC. Maybe next week? We'll see"

Lol, not often I have seen a Gamestudio in the last time, that works so.... lazy.

I mean, maybe next week, that sounds like, "just when I haven't to do something other more important", I mean that is exactly his job.

This DLC should be better big and should beaten the most other DLCs. Then all is fine, then that behaviour make sense to me.

But should this be an average DLC (Like Kingdoms or Amalur or something like that), then I will ask myself, what Bethseda do the hole day.

And overall, next week, then Betheseda really thinks this kinectsupport thing ist a "big suprise?....
Strange definition of that.

» Wed Jun 13, 2012 4:56 am

Frankly I don't care what the DLC will be. We all know that the 360 is getting exclusive DLC (again) and I hate the 360's controls. I have a 360 and ps3 and gaming comp. And I have skyrim for ps3 and PC, but you wouldn't catch me dead playing it for the 360. But it's a good business decision. For Microsoft, that is.

Why do you think that? where did you hear that? Three expansions?

Yes it was an over-excited fan, I haven't heard any 'official' news for those dates regarding DLC or Kinect updates. The only piece of news I put any stock in is from Beth's twitter site and that stated that we could expect a DLC announcement sometime in April.

If Bethesda are smart Andy would bet they wait until the last possible moment before they announce any DLC to make sure they can take maximum advantage of the time to polish what they've worked so far and to market their product properly!.

This is only my opinion but I honestly believe we'll hear something on Monday (April 30th!!)

» Wed Jun 13, 2012 5:44 am

Statistically it is coming this week. The news that is.

As there is 3-4 days left of this week (depending on your view on that), and only 1-2 days of April next week. (Again, depending on how you view the weeks)

» Wed Jun 13, 2012 10:52 am

Exclusive for one month.

» Wed Jun 13, 2012 6:57 am

Exclusive for one month.

Really? I must have misread then, well I suppose that makes me feel better, I hated how oblivion got a bunch of extra DLC for the 360 and PS3 players were screwed.

» Wed Jun 13, 2012 2:40 am

Exclusive for one month.

Haha, so Bethesda are utilising PC players to bug test their patches and xbox players to bugtest their expansions! xD

Where is everyone getting the idea that news about DLC is coming in April? I don't think they ever said that, did they? Pete Hines tweeted: "Some things coming down the road in April for all you Rage and Skyrim fans. April is gonna have some cool news and surprises." And on Bethblog all they said was "Bethesda Game Studios has been hard at work on creating the first set of game add-ons that will be exclusive to the Xbox 360. This additional content will add new quests, locations, features, and much more to the world of Skyrim. Stay tuned for more details."

Is there something else I don't know about??

Really? I must have misread then, well I suppose that makes me feel better, I hated how oblivion got a bunch of extra DLC for the 360 and PS3 players were screwed.

And that one can be blamed on Sony. I can't find the link to the sauce (it was four years ago or so...), but one of the tech magazines had mentioned that Sony was being very stingy with their code for both PSN as well as to make the DLC work with the PS3.

So not only does Sony not want to fork over the cash to let their player base have something cool and exclusive (even if only for a month), but they also don't mind playing sub-political games with developers and leaving their player-base wondering if they'll actually see the DLC at all...

I used to own a PS3 alongside my Xbox 360, btw, owned both since they came out. But due to certain... situations like I outlined above, I ditched it and went with the solo console. Now? I'm just going to stick with Micro$oft like I have for the last several years.
