PS3 Faces Oblivion

Released one year ago this week for Xbox 360 and PC, Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion has finally made its way to the PlayStation 3. Bethesda announced today that Oblivion has shipped for PS3 and should be in stores not later than Wednesday.

The PS3 version of Oblivion, which retails for $59.99, includes the full version of the original game plus the entire Knights of the Nine expansion. Plus, it's the first version of Oblivion that plays on a PS3 -- so if you haven't played it yet, now's your chance.

The new Oblivion expansion pack The Shivering Isles is also expected to be released this week on PC and Xbox 360. No release date for the new expansion has been revealed for PS3, but Bethesda has said repeatedly that they plan to make all content for Elder Scrolls IV available across all three platforms.
