Bethesda Softworks announced today that The Elder Scrolls IV: Shivering Isles for PLAYSTATION 3 is now shipping to North American retail stores. This standalone disc will allow gamers who already own The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion to experience the expansion.

This new retail product follows the October release of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Game of the Year Edition, which includes the Shivering Isles expansion. Originally released in March 2006 for Windows and Xbox 360 and in March 2007 for PLAYSTATION 3 system, Oblivion has earned countless awards from publications around the world and won numerous Game of the Year and RPG of the Year awards.

Oblivion features character voices by acting legends Patrick Stewart, Sean Bean, Terrance Stamp, and Lynda Carter, and an award-winning soundtrack. 

With more than 30 hours of new gameplay, Shivering Isles allows you to explore an entirely new plane of Oblivion � the realm of Sheogorath, the Daedric Prince of Madness. Shivering Isles features a bizarre landscape split between the two sides � Mania and Dementia �filled with vast, twisting dungeons. Sheogorath himself looks to you to be his champion and defend his realm and its inhabitants from destruction as you discover all new items, ingredients, spells, and much more.

Shivering Isles will also be available for download on the PLAYSTATION Network (North American only) beginning November 29th.
