Bethesda has released a few details concerning the next installment of DLC for Fallout 3 today. Mothership Zeta, dated for an August 3rd release, will be the final add-on for Fallout 3. This time around, players will be abducted by aliens when answering a distress call. Judging by the details I have been reading, this is not going to be a friendly visit, so be prepared to wipe out as many aliens as possible in hopes of returning to earth. Apparently, some characters from the earths past will be making an appearance in Mothership Zeta, implying that aliens have been abducting humans for a long time. No specifics were released as to who we might see aboard the ship, but would you really want them to spoil it ahead of time? Of course, as with every add-on pack, a few new weapons and armor options will be available to experiment with. The update includes a Gemini-Era Spacesuit, Samurai Armor, Alien Atomizer, Alien Disintegrater, and a Drone Cannon. Even though it wasn’t mentioned in the information released, I would assume this expansion would be a good place to stock up on Alien Power Cells used in the Alien Blaster as well. Just a guess though. The DLC will be released for 800 Microsoft points ($10.00), which has been the magic price for all previous content packages. If you have grown a little weary of wandering through the wastelands, Mothership Zeta should be a nice escape.
