Bethesda Softworks has released six new screenshots for Point Lookout, the latest Fallout 3 downloadable content set for release on Xbox 360 and the PC next week.
In addition, lead designer Joel Burgess and lead artist Nathan Purkeypile have written a developer diary chronicling the genesis of Point Lookout from concept through to completion complete with artwork examples.
They explain the goal of Point Lookout as, “One of our primary goals was not to create just a quest, but a whole new region for players to explore. Straight away we knew that we wanted to focus on what we felt was one of the great strengths of Fallout 3 –a world too full of stories and surprises, ripe for exploration and adventure. For us, the world is a main character, and choosing our location was intrinsically tied to the tone of the content.”
You can read more of the extensive developer diary over at the official Fallout 3 website or click any of the screenshots below to view high resolution versions. The Point Lookout DLC will cost 800 Microsoft Points and be available Tuesday, June 23.
