Bethesda's epic RPG The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion is loosening its PC and Xbox 360 girdle to accommodate Knights of the Nine, a new faction and new quests expansion that'll feature out-the-box in the forthcoming PS3 version of the game.

Knights of the Nine will be released on November 21. Punters will be able to download it for PC via OblivionDownloads.com and for Xbox 360 via Xbox Live Marketplace. Pricing details have yet to be confirmed.

Elaborating on the brand new material, Bethesda explains, "Knights of the Nine features an all-new faction and quests for noble characters and answers many of the questions surrounding the Ayleid ruins found throughout Oblivion.

Players can join a new faction and found their own order of holy knights - leading them into battle against a sorcerer-king and his demonic minions while exploring massive dungeons and searching for legendary relics - the holy armor and weapons of the Divine Crusader."

In addition, a boxed retail version of Knights of the Nine is releasing on November 21 for PC - to be co-published by Ubisoft in Europe. The boxed version contains the new faction and quest material along with currently available Oblivion content Horse Armor, The Orrery, Wizard's Tower, Vile Lair, Thieves Den, Mehrunes' Razor, and Spell Tomes. Again, pricing details for this are TBC.
