'Fallout 4: Far Harbor DLC' news: Expansion pack contains more than 20 hours of content, say playtesters

 Bethesda

The newest expansion of "Fallout 4", known as "Far Harbor," will be released for both consoles and the PC on May 19. According to WCCF Tech, "Far Harbor" is one of the biggest DLC packs ever released by Bethesda Games, with its size much bigger than the "Shivering Isles" in "Oblivion."

This size comparison is made by Peter Hines in a Twitter post. Fans who played the classic "Elder Scrolls" expansion will know that this game featured more or less 30 hours of content, which made it worthwhile and immersive. However, playtesters who were able to get their hands on the "Fallout 4" DLC went ahead and shared some of the things they experienced with it.

According to some of them, it will take more or less 20 to 22 hours to explore every map marker and do all the quests. That doesn't include some of the undiscovered secret places, so it could be possible for players to get more hours' worth of content. One tester confirms the main quest to be quite short, but the side quests and other content took up an estimated time of 10 to 15 hours.

A thread made on Reddit even polled these gametesters on whether or not the expansion is as consistently scary as Bethesda made it seem. Based on the comments, it was a unanimous "yes". Some of them even said that "Far Harbor" is an unholy combination between "Point Lookout" and "Dead Money."

"Fallout 4: Far Harbor" DLC is roughly around $25. It can be purchased as a standalone DLC pack, but it's also part of the Season Pass bundle. Unlike other action games like "Dark Souls 3", this DLC won't be the last content to be released for the "Fallout 4" game. Considering the fact that its modding support has just been released on the PC and Xbox One, it can be assumed that the "Fallout 4" is still alive and kicking.
