The Pitt (add-on)

The Pitt will be the second Fallout 3 downloadable content pack, to be released in February 2009 for Xbox 360 and Games for Windows Live.

In this DLC pack, the player will journey to the industrial raider town called The Pitt, located in the remains of Pittsburgh. "Choose your side." This DLC is possibly based on some sort of conflict. The player will likely have different, karma-oriented methods of participating in the conflict or interacting with the NPCs in this location.

There is no official word from the developers if the player will be able to use his/her character from the Capital Wasteland storyline, given the unique situation following Take it Back!

To access The Pitt you may be able to go past the fallen rubble in Rockopolis, as a holotape found in Rockopolis mentions The Pitt as a destination. It is speculated by some Fallout 3 players and fans that the downloadable content may give you access past the rocks.

During the latest interview with Bethesda, they claimed that Pittsburgh was not hit directly by an atomic bomb, but the surrounding water still became radiated, making the people change in bad ways.
