Newsflash:

Welcome to The Pitt

Published February 23, 2009

The Pitt opens with a desperate radio message and a meeting with its sender, an escaped slave named Wernher. Wernher claims that the leader of "The Pitt" has created a cure for mutations … and he needs you to go in and retrieve it.

Embark on a new quest with this sprawling expansion.

In this new add-on adventure for Fallout 3, proceed in a number of ways, in true Fallout 3 style. Do you fight your way in, or disguise yourself as a slave? Ally with the slaves, or join their Raider overlords? The Pitt is very morally ambiguous—there's no real right or wrong, just choices to be made, sides to be chosen, and a mystery that could send shockwaves throughout the entire Wasteland.

Rev up your AutoAxe for a really good time.

The Pitt allows you to travel to the post-apocalyptic remains of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and become embroiled in a conflict between slaves and their Raider masters. Explore a sprawling settlement ravaged by time, neglect, nuclear radiation, and moral degradation. The Pitt is filled with morally grey choices, shady NPCs, new enemies, new weapons, and much more.

Explore the smoldering ruins of Pittsburgh.

In this new chapter of the Fallout 3 story, find and use new weaponry, such as the AutoAxe, a new melee weapon with a powerful, serrated rotary blade hungry for flesh. Discover new side quests and subtle plot elements and determine your path in this place where nothing is "right" or "wrong." Score exclusive new perks and achievements!
