Elder Scrolls V code digger unearths potential info on upcoming content

The next Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim DLC will be called Dragonborn and will feature dragon mounts in some capacity. At least that's the word according to a post on the Bethesda forums which claims to have uncovered the information after digging through the source code of the most recently released Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim patch.

Other key points of interest extracted from the code:

  • The DLC will take place on the island of Solstheim
  • Main locations will be Raven Rock, Miraak Temple, Castle Karstaag, and Telvanni Tower.
  • New Bonemold, Chitin, Nordic, and Stalhrim armour types
  • New creatures (not specified)
  • New Dwemer Artifacts (not specified)
  • PS3 Downloadable Content is mentioned (nothing specific)

.

Obviously all this info is currently 100% unconfirmed by Bethesda, but it’s worth remembering clues to Skyrim’s Dawnguard DLC were similarly discovered in an update patch pre-release which turned out to be accurate.

I don't have the energy to really hate anything properly. Most things I think are OK or inoffensively average. I do love quite a lot of stuff as well, though.
