Skyrim DLC 2 named and dated

Bethesda Studios have announced that in September players of Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim will be able to get their hands on the latest content add on for the game. The name of the add on is called Hearthfire and will only be available initially for the Xbox 360.

Launching on the 4th September Hearthfire will enable players to buy land, build their own house and even raise a family by adopting children. You can buy land in the salt marshes of Hjaalmarch, the forests of Falkreath, or the vast tundra of The Pale or if you are feeling up to it- you will be able to property manage multiple locations.

You can customise all of the rooms in the house you build and add such things such as an armory, alchemy tower, kitchen, or even a trophy room if showing off takes your fancy. Other options are available, you can create a farm or a smithery. Raise horses, or grow food for health in the new missions.

Missions include stopping pesky intruders to protect your family and house. Raising a family will also give out extra bonuses not available from the main game.

Hearthfire will be available to all Skyrim players on Xbox 360 from the 4th September. No prices have been set as of yet, but when it does, we will let you know!
