Confused about the Knights of the Nine expansion for Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion? An official clarification from Pete Hines from Bethesda Softworks has cleared up the perplexity of obtaining the expansion for those who have already bought the DLC it contains.

First, I wanted to clarify a couple things on Knights of the Nine. The retail version of Knights of the Nine is a collection (for PC) that includes Knights of the Nine plus all the other DLC released to date. That’s why it’s $19.99. If you want just Knights of the Nine for PC, you can download it for $9.99 and get just that DLC without the rest of it. Same on 360…800 points for just Knights of the Nine. A retail version for 360 isn’t technically feasible at this time. If/when it becomes a possibility we’ll let folks know; it’s certainly something we’d like to offer. Release date for Knights of the Nine is 11/21 for the retail version as well as the 360 version on Xbox Live. It will be available to download for PC (from http://www.obliviondownloads.com) on 12/4.

It also contained word that the PS3 version of Oblivion has been delayed until Q1 2007.
