Sony and Bethesda ‘Working Closely’ on Skyrim Dawnguard for PS3

It’s no secret that Bethesda is having a tough time releasing Skyrim Dawnguard on the PlayStation 3. The DLC, which is currently available for both the Xbox 360 and PC versions of Skyrim, has yet to appear on Sony’s console. This has caused PlayStation 3 gamers to grow a bit flustered, as it should come as no surprise to anyone that people really like Skyrim, so they want to get their hands on as much of it as possible.

Sony is reportedly working alongside Bethesda to ensure that Dawnguard gets released for Skyrim on the PlayStation 3. “We work with all of our partners to try and solve their problems,” Sony VP Adam Boyes told Kotaku. “We have a big, broad dev support team that works closely with Bethesda — and with all of our partners — to work with them to solve that any sort of issues they have along the way.”

While Boyes can’t say when and if the content will actually be released for the PlayStation 3, he insists that both companies are trying their damnedest to get Dawnguard on the platform. “Of course, I always want everything to work always for everyone,” he continued. “I can’t promise any kind of resolution or timeline but can say that everyone involved is trying their best to get this stuff working.”

It’s a shame that Dawnguard hasn’t managed to reach all of the Skyrim fans that have been wanting to play it. Already we’ve seen Xbox 360 and PC gamers making some pretty harsh comments toward PlayStation 3 owners over their choice of hardware. In reality, though, this isn’t even about that. This matter is about a publisher failing to deliver content equally to all of its loyal fans. Tsk tsk, Bethesda. Tsk tsk.
