Not that much of a sur­prise when you stop and think about.

Today, Bethesda has con­firmed that its upcom­ing RPG, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, will be get­ting some DLC. However, the first two pieces of Skyrim DLC will be only on Xbox 360 for 30 days.

This of course does mean that PS3 and PC own­ers won’t be able to par­take in these two expan­sions until a month expires. For PC gamers, this shouldn’t be a prob­lem thanks to the mod­ding com­munity that is grow­ing ever more excited to mod another Elder Scrolls game. PS3 gamers won’t be so lucky how­ever.

This deal shouldn’t come as a sur­prise to any fol­lower of Bethesda though. The com­pany has a his­tory of releas­ing expan­sions on the Xbox 360 first. Fallout 3 received all 4 expan­sions packs a whole year ahead of a PS3 release.

Don’t go get­ting angry though PS3 users, 30 days isn’t a long wait and the world cre­ated in Skyrim will be so large that DLC won’t be neces­sary for a long time.

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim will launch November 11, 2011 on Xbox 360, PC, and PS3.
