Oblivion expansion confirmed for the 360?

[carocat]

There has been talk about an upcoming expansion for Oblivion on the PC, called 'Shivering Isles'. A post on 360Fanboy (http://www.xbox360fanboy.com/2007/01/12/shivering-isles-on-360-free-content-in-oxm/)indicates this might come to the 360 after all:
360 Fanboy regular, J. Goodwin, reports that the latest issue of the Official Xbox Magazine contains a six page blowout of information on the upcoming expansion for Oblivion, entitled Shivering Isles. We assumed that the expansion was 360 bound before, but it's always nice to have confirmation, right?
That sounds promising to me.

They also mentioned this:
As an added bonus, the DVD that comes with the latest issue has two pieces of previously released Oblivion content, "Wizard's Tower" and "Thieves Den."
Now I don't know if this is US only or also in the UK. Does anyone have the latest issue of the OXM?

I have the latest issue of Game Informer, which also has a good preview of Shivering Isles including a handful of screen shots.

Bethesda have now released this press release:

The Elder Scrolls IV: Shivering Isles
Platform: PC and Xbox 360®
ESRB Rating: Rating Pending


The Elder Scrolls IV: Shivering Isles is the official expansion for Oblivion – the 2006 RPG and Game of the Year. It features more than 30 hours of new gameplay as you are sent to explore an entirely new plane of Oblivion – the realm of Sheogorath, the Daedric Prince of Madness. Shivering Isles adds to the existing world of Oblivion, so you can continue playing with your existing save game/character, or create an all new character just to explore the new content in Shivering Isles. New creatures, weapons, armor, ingredients, branching questlines, and more await in the land of Mania and Dementia.

Enter the world of the Madgod – the Realm of Sheogorath. Inside this torn plane reside the sublimely creative and the completely psychotic. Something is happening to the Shivering Isles and Sheogorath himself looks to you to be his champion and defend his realm and its inhabitants from destruction. Do you have the strength to survive his trials, to tame a realm fraught with paranoia and despair, and wear the mantle of a God?

* Experience a branching questline surrounding the endless cycle of mania and despair.

* See a world created in Sheogorath’s own image, one divided between Mania and Dementia and unlike anything you’ve experienced in Oblivion.

* Battle the denizens of Shivering Isles, a land filled with hideous insects, Flesh Atronachs, skeletal Shambles, amphibeous Grummites, and many more.

* Find and wield new weapons and armor, or have new ones forged for you by the talented craftsmen of Crucible and Bliss.

* Explore a bizarre landscape filled with twisting, vast dungeons buried within the roots of the trees themselves.

* Unravel the mystery surrounding the endless cycle of madness and destruction that threatens to destroy the Shivering Isles.
