Oblivion Shivering Isles Preview





Weighing in at 1.5 gigabytes, Shivering Isles will introduce an entire new plane of Oblivion, roughly a quarter of the size of the original game. The Expansion, due for download for the xbox 360 in March, will feature new settlements, characters, quests, a new storyline, and a promised 30 hours of gameplay.

Update!! Shivering Isles Review

No information as yet on the cost of the expansion, rumour on gamerhelp.com suggests

$29.99 (2,400 mp) or €22, (1,834 mp)*

though using a large dollop of innocence. . . . let's see 25% size of original, plus a discount for luck, leaves me with (counts on fingers....)

$24 (1,920 mp) €17.99 (1,500mp) *

With Oblivion sales currently topping three million units, Bethesda wouldn't rip us off would they?

*(note on microsoft points, Each region is billed for Microsoft points in their own local currency. The pricing however does not change with the current exchange rates, meaning some regions pay more for the same amount of points than others. see wikipedia)

Oblivion Knights of the Nine

Knights of the Nine lets players join an all-new faction, an order of holy knights, and lead them into battle against a sorcerer-king while exploring Cyrodill searching for relics which will answer many questions surrounding the Ayleid ruins. With the holy armor and weapons of the Divine Crusader players can restore the Knights of the Nine to their former glory.

Originally muted as Ps3 launch bonus, Bethesda have confirmed the faction plugin will also be available for us Xbox360'ers on Xboxmarketplace. Whereas all the plugins to date will be available as a pc add-on for $19 no price has been muted for the separate Knights of the Nine plugin. Image from Ps3 screenshot on Official Website.
