Alongside this news is word that on March 1, the price of the Season Pass will go from $29.99 (USD) to $49.99 (USD). Bethesda talks about the reason behind this change and what it means for those who purchase the Season Pass before this date.
Given the expanded DLC plan, the price of the season pass will increase from the current $29.99 to $49.99 USD (£24.99 to £39.99 GBP; $49.95 to $79.95 AUD) on March 1, 2016. However, if you already purchased the season pass for $29.99, nothing changes - you still get everything at no additional cost— the full $60 offering of add-on content for the original price of $29.99. In addition, if you didn’t buy the season pass yet, there is still time: anyone who buys the Season Pass for $29.99 before March 1st will get all $60 worth of content. This is our way of saying thanks to all our loyal fans who have believed in us and supported us over the years.
Bethesda also notes that there will be betas for the DLC, allowing you to play earlier than the release date specified below. All you need to do is register at the Bethesda website and fill out the form. Bethesda also notes that they're still working on free updates for the game for all platforms alongside the Creation Kit.
Enough about that, let's see what's coming in the first three DLC releases.
