Fallout 3 & Oblivion double pack drops April 3

Bethesda bundling its 2006 and 2008 role-playing game hits on Xbox 360 and PC in North America for $30 and $20, respectively; PS3 version blocked.

207 Comments

Fallout 3 and The Elder Scrolls IV are set in vastly different worlds, but soon they will come together. Bethesda today announced the Fallout 3 & Oblivion Double Pack, due out in April for the Xbox 360 and PC.

Bethesda doubles down on RPG memories this April.
Bethesda doubles down on RPG memories this April.

Set for release in North America on April 3, the Xbox 360 version of the Fallout 3 & Oblivion Double Pack will retail for $30, while the PC iteration will set gamers back $20. Bethesda did not note if the bundled games include any of the downloadable content released for either game.

Though Fallout 3 and The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion shipped for the PlayStation 3, Bethesda did not mention plans to bring the double pack to that system. A statement from Bethesda provided to GameSpot says, "At present we are not being allowed to release it on PS3. We will continue to try to change that, and would release it if we are permitted."

"We want to release it for PS3," reads a follow-up statement sent to GameSpot.

As for the games in the pack, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion shipped in 2006, with Fallout 3 arriving in 2008. Each game won a strong critical reception upon release and later spawned Game of the Year editions. For more on the titles included in the double pack, check out GameSpot's reviews of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion and Fallout 3.

They need to remake Morrowind for 360, then make a trilogy pack with Morrowind, Oblivion, and Skyrim.

Great timing on Bethesda's part skyrim is at its height of its popularity, slap two good games together that are at least four years old and cash in on your new fans, they probably would have done it sooner if that law suit didn't get in the way.

I guess Sony just wants to release their own double packs. Such as Resistance 1,2 and Uncharted 1,2. Blu ray disc can easily hold both games with all of their DLC add ons? This would be good for people who have missed these games. If anyone has.

@tes4eva Every bethesda game is broken to some extent, funnily enough none of those bugs you mentioned never happened to me. For me the ps3 version of any bethesda game has been more stable than the PC versions.

Games for Windows LIVE DRM for the PC version? *Ugh*. Tad expensive too, considering that distributors like Amazon and Steam are selling the games for lower prices.

You could probably find a used copy of non-GOTY Oblivion for less than $10, and a used Fallout 3 for not much more. Without the dlc, this isn't really worth it.

Hmm these games aren't even set in the same universe or series... I would guess Bethesda is only doing this because of there success with Skyrim.

For the 3 or 4 people who have held out thus far. (-I still remember the day I bought Fallout 3. Not unlike the day you meet your next GF.)

I hope some one can clarify but isn't the Fallout 3 GOTY edition on PS3 broken? I remember reading on the Bethesda forums that the game kept crashing frequently.

@beeftaco3232 Your machismo overwhelms me. I am so affected by it I have decided to change my "nerd" ways. I will now try to be the definitive bully, just like you. I will pray on the weak and start "s$%t" on the internet because I can not back it up in real life. My internet muscles will grow to such a proportion that I will try to be cool in real life, only to realize that when you talk "s#$t" in real life, you get your a$$ kicked. Who am I kidding, I like being a nerd. :)

@cipo89 No one said they are game of the year editions. So far everyone is under the assumption that they are NOT GOTY editions, which then would not be a deal at all considering how much all the DLC costs

@HollowNinja because there are people out there who doesn't want to spend money on a new pc just to play a game that they can play on consoles or people like me who prefer to play on consoles and the games play great with out mods and I see no need for them there is so much to do in them to keep you busy for a very long time plus playing bunch of other awesome games and it isn't Sony it is probably M$ bribing them for it to be exclusive or timed exclusive either way it doesn't bother me since I already own both of those games

Oh ho. Sony up to their usual antics? Not that it matters, since I have the PC versions anyways. I don't even see the point of the console versions; Bethesda games practically require mods.

If this pack does not come with all DLC it's better to stick with the game of the year editions.

Probably won't buy this since I already own Oblivion and Fallout 3 game of the year edition. But if they added trophies for oblivion i might rent it if it ever comes to gamefly. That is if it even comes for the ps3, since that is the only system i have.

I like the idea, and for 20 bucks this sounds like a give away for such amazing games. Hopefully both will be the GOTY releases, or it wouldn't have much point in this product as everyone already played them.

@shadowhunter0 : I agree..it's not like anyone's gonna say ''Wow! I can get these 2 games already out on each system bundled exclusively...this definitely sways my choice!'' when buying a system.Paying Bethesda off to release it exclusively won't benefit them at all if not hurt them in the long run.
