Fallout 4 Automatron DLC Release Date Revealed With New Trailer

Bethesda has released a new trailer featuring the upcoming downloadable content pack for Fallout 4, titled Automatron. The DLC will centre on a character called the Mechanist who has unleashed a horde of malevolent robots into the Commonwealth. Players will be able to hunt down robots and harvest parts to build their own custom robot companions. You can watch the trailer in the embed below.

Automatron will be released for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC on March 22 with a $9.99 price tag. The DLC will introduce new armour, abilities, and weapons. Automatron is the first of several upcoming downloadable content packs planned for Fallout 4, with Wasteland Workshop scheduled for release in April and the mysterious Far Harbor slated for launch in May. Also arriving in April for PC will be Fallout 4's Creation Kit, according to director Todd Howard.

Last week some details from Automatron emerged online, including the achievements and their respective images. You can get all three expansions through the Fallout 4 DLC pass, which recently increased in price to $50.

Fallout 4 first launched in November last year. Interest in the game is evidently still strong, as it was one of the top ten titles to be sold at retailers in the United States for the month of February.
