Oblivion Gets Vile Download
Bethesda offers refuge and feeding grounds for vampires and other nasties. First screens.
People have a tendency to avoid you if you have a reputation for doing ill to your fellow man, but in Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, you'll still have somewhere to turn. Bethesda has revealed that it's preparing new downloadable content that will please those with dark hearts.
The Vile Lair, as the new downloadable content is known, is an area in the game where infamous players can go to cure themselves of their ills. The region will also welcome vampirism-afflicted players, giving them sanctuary and prey for feeding or, if they choose, release from their blood-sucking ways.
The download will be available for both PC and Xbox 360 players from 13 July, and you can find out much more about it, including the backstory to the Vile Lair, at the official Bethesda download site.
