Hasta La Gadget!

At last, the Jedi are no more. At last…wait a minute here. What am I doing, rumbling on about Jedis and the ilk? The long wait for the Dragonborn DLC for long suffering PS3 owners who love all things about Skyrim has finally come to an end, as the Dragonborn DLC is finally available. In Dragonborn, you will be able to journey beyond Skyrim to Solstheim, which is an island off the coast of Morrowind. You will be able to make use of all your abilities and skills picked up in Skyrim as you attempt to save the island from a mysterious power which threatens to destroy Solstheim’s inhabitants.

Apart from Dragonborn’s main quest, you will find yourself having hours of new content to explore, in addition to a slew of new characters, new towns, new dungeons and a slew of new side quests to complete. Elite players who have already achieved the coveted Level 81 status will be able to find an opportunity to square off with the game’s fiercest adversary, simply known as The Ebony Warrior. Dragonborn can be purchased at a 50% discount for $9.99 during launch week only, so the adage of the early bird catching the worm holds true here.

These days Christmas trees come in all shapes and sizes. For Skyrim fans, this life-sized Dragonborn Nord tree (actually a statue decorated like a tree) is all they need.

This crazy statue/tree comes from Redditor Lanarchy, who spends way too much time running around in Skyrim and needed more of it in real life. In the future they will say, “I used to decorate my Dragonborn tree every year. Until I took an arrow to the knee.”

This Skyrim tree is the perfect centerpiece for a geeky Christmas. The little Yoda on his shoulder is a nice touch, despite having nothing to do with The Elder Scrolls. Or does he?

Details of the upcoming Skyrim Dragonborn DLC was revealed yesterday, although we’re pretty sure that while Xbox 360 gamers might be pleased that the DLC will be making its way onto their consoles, PlayStation 3 gamers on the other hand might simply not be bothered. After all with Dawnguard and Hearthfire having to make their appearances on the PS3 console, why should Dragonborn be any different, right? Well the good news is that according to Bethesda, they have announced that the Dragonborn DLC will be making its way onto both the PC and the PS3 come early 2013.

No specific dates were provided, but presumably this is pretty good news for PS3 owners considering that for the previous two DLCs, Bethesda has either been keeping mum or have just been reassuring fans that they’re working to get it running on the PS3. We’re not sure what it is about the new DLC that will allow it to run on the PS3, but something is better than nothing, right? However if history is any indication, we’re pretty sure that PS3 gamers will adopt the “we’ll believe it until we see it” stance and we guess we’ll do the same for now, but do check back with us at a later date where hopefully additional details can be shared.

Earlier this morning, we talked up Bethesda teasing us with hints of an upcoming DLC, and what you see above is the real deal – the latest Dragonborn DLC which will be part of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. Dragonborn will see Elder Scrolls faithful return to the island of Solstheim, where it first made its debut in The Elder Scrolls III: Bloodmoon. Dragonborn’s premise is simple – it concerns the very first Dragonborn. What you see is a mask to accompany this rather modest introduction, “He was once one of them, the Dragon Priest. He ruled here in their name, ruled over Solstheim, but he did not serve the dragons — he devoured them. And like them he seeks to return.”

The trailer shows off a range of new environments, enemies, as well as the much rumored ability (finally) mount a dragon as your ride. Solstheim will be very different from the other worlds in Skyrim, where you might get creeped out with Cthulhu-like monsters and demonic beings crawling all over the place.

Dragonborn seems destined to be a timed Xbox 360 exclusive, similar to its previous DLC, where it is tipped to arrive on Xbox Live this coming December 4th for 1600 MSP (the equivalent of $20). It should arrive on the PC a month after that, and PS3 fans might consider picking up the Xbox 360 for themselves this Christmas.
