Dragonfire, Er, Battlehorn Castle, Is Here!

Thats right, folks, after months of waiting and most people giving it up as vaporware, Bethesda has released the last piece of DLC (Downloadable Content) for the award-winning game, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion!

The Fighter's Stronghold, Battlehorn Castle, has all the features rumored to be in it, too! Enjoy your own Shrine to Julianos, a wine cellar, a Dwemer (Dwarven) Forge and a taxidermist to make you trophies of your kills!

It gets better, too! How could it possibly get better, you ask? Heres how:

Its completely free!

For one week after it is released for download, Monday October 15, 360 and PC players can download it for free via their respective download source.

No word yet on PS3 players, but heres some good news, Bethesda is near striking a deal to get a stand-alone Shivering Isles to you, so don't think about rushing out to buy Game of the Year just for Shivering Isles yet.

Read more about it on the Bethesda blog here.

Check out the download page here.

And chat about it on the official Bethesda Game Studios message board here.

Nexus Part 2

This morning Dark0ne, previous operator of the now closed Elder Scrolls Source, has announced some great news. Those of you who've been keeping up with Cheydinhal or the Bethesda Game Studios Forums will probably remember him saying this:

"I have big news ... but I'm going to go to bed now. So tune in tomorrow ;)"

As it turns out, with another negotiation with his ex-partner, Dark0ne has acquired the forum database from The Elder Scrolls Source. This means that when The Elder Scrolls Nexus goes up all forum posts and file comments and all member accounts will be restores. All people who were members on Source can access their old accounts on Nexus as well as access and modify their uploaded files.

Read it from Dark0ne himself on the Bethesda Game Studios Forums here.

UPDATE:

It seems file comments are not salvaged.
