Bethesda released a new trailer and details about the first of Fallout 4's upcoming DLC, Automatron.

Automatron releases March 22 on all platforms. In it, players can hunt down and destroy evil robots and use their harvested parts to build their own custom companions for the game.

"The mysterious Mechanist has unleashed a horde of evil robots into the Commonwealth," and it's up to the Wanderer to stop them. Among the new robots is the "devious Robobrain."

Parts taken from defeated robots can be mixed and matched to create totally custom robotic companions for use in the game. "Choose from hundreds of mods; mixing limbs, armor, abilities, and weapons such as the all-new lightning chain gun," Bethesda said. Paint schemes and voices customization options are also available for players above level 15.

Bethesda revealed the first set of 3 Fallout 4 DLC in February, including Automatron, Wasteland Workshop, and Far Harbor. Far Harbor takes players out of the Commonwealth and to an island in Maine, something Bethesda promises is its largest-ever landmass for an add-on it's ever created.
