The Pitt will be the second Fallout 3 downloadable content pack, and is set to be released on March 24, 2009[1] for the Xbox 360 and Games for Windows Live.
Overview
Welcome to The Pitt
In this DLC pack, the player will journey to the industrial raider town called The Pitt, located in the remains of Pittsburgh.[2] In contrast to Operation: Anchorage, The Pitt will involve a more traditional questline with several morally-ambiguous choices. The main quest involves the player taking on the role of a slave in order to investigate rumors that the Raider boss of The Pitt has discovered a cure for mutations.[2] The DLC is intended to feature 4-5 hours of additional gameplay.[3] A trailer was released in the waiting time by Gametrailers, it also showed the Trogs in action. [4]
Background
Although Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania was not hit directly by atomic bombs during the Great War, the water from the nearby Allegheny, Monongahela, and Ohio rivers still became irradiated, and altered the area's inhabitants in mysterious ways over the following decades.
The Pittsburgh steel yard
Some 20 years before the events of Fallout 3, Owyn Lyons led the Brotherhood of Steel's expedition to Washington, D.C. through The Pitt. In one night, the Brotherhood swept through and destroyed the original raider force occupying the town and rid the surrounding area of other "scum," an event chronicled as "the Scourge." As they cut through the raiders, the Brotherhood also saved several young children, among them Paladin Kodiak, who had not yet been mutated to the extent of The Pitt's adult inhabitants.
Story
When The Pitt first loads, the player will be informed of a new radio distress signal from a runaway slave called Werhner, who informs the Lone Wanderer that he needs help in retrieving a cure for mutations developed by The Pitt's raider boss, Ashur.[5] In order to successfully reach Ashur however, the PC will have to give up their gear temporarily. The PC will then familiarize themselves with the new weapon, the AutoAxe, and compete in a fighting arena, aptly titled The Pitt. [6] The Pitt will be accessed through an underground railroad, and will be loaded as a separate map from the Capital Wasteland.[7] The town itself consists of a large "dungeon" area, an abandoned steel yard, and a settlement which is divided into two districts: Downtown, inhabited by slaves, and Haven, occupied by their masters.[2] The Pitt will have unique vendors, and Bethesda has announced you will be able to return [8]
