Hearthfire, the second downloadable content pack for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, is available now on Xbox Live. The pack will cost 400 Microsoft Points ($5.00) and, like all Skyrim downloadable content, will start as an exclusive for Xbox 360 players.
As Bethesda announced last week, Hearthfire lets players purchase land and build a house from the ground up. According to Xbox Live’s Major Nelson, you’ll be able to go “from a simple one-room cottage to a sprawling compound complete with an armory, alchemy laboratory, stable, garden and more.” Players will also be able to use tools and a carpenter’s workbench to turn stone, clay or logs into furniture and can also adopt children.
We first heard the Hearthfire name back in May, when a trademark listing suggested that Bethesda had new content in the works. Hearthfire follows Dawnguard, which launched on June 26th and was later released on PC. Currently, Bethesda says that Skyrim’s downloadable content may never come to PlayStation 3.
