Bethesda<\/a> have released a trailer for the upcoming Dawnguard DLC<\/a> expansion to their award-winning open-world RPG<\/a>, Skyrim, as well as slapped an expected arrival period to the vampirific expansion.<\/p>\n

The Dawnguard add-on introduces a host of new areas, characters, enemies and weapons. Crossbows, new snow-based creatures, and most notably, vampires, will make up the bulk of the DLC, with new quests and missions to engage with.<\/p>\n

This confirms the rumours surrounding the hidden folder found<\/a> in a recent Skyrim update file.<\/p>\n

The DLC will also make use of the update which added mounted combat<\/a>, as the trailer shows the character horsing around with some alive and zombified ponies.<\/p>\n

For now, the add-on is exclusive to Xbox 360, although the exclusivity is only extended to 30 days, meaning that PS3<\/a> and PC gamers<\/a> should expect the DLC<\/a> a month after the 360 release.<\/p>\n

Dawnguard is said to arrive in “summer” (therefore around Q3\/Q4 2012) and will cost 1600 MSP (around R172).<\/p>\n

Bethesda will undoubtedly be showing off the new DLC at E3<\/a> next week.<\/p>\n
