Fallout: New Vegas ‘Old World Blues’ Dated

The game's third DLC quest will be available on July 19th.

Bethesda has revealed that ‘Old World Blues’ will release on PC, XBLA and PSN on July 19th. Perhaps more importantly, though, we now know that it will feature robotic scorpions. Don’t act like you’re not impressed.

Little else is known about the quest, but Bethesda promised that they’ll be releasing a trailer in the coming weeks and that fans should watch for fresh images to appear on their Facebook and/or Flickr page(s) later today. You should also know that the Bethesda rep who posted the news described the DLC as “crazy awesome”; and we all know that that’s the best kind of awesome.

New Vegas players can also look forward to an update prior to Old World Blues’ release. The patch will reportedly smooth out the game’s performance and stability.
