"Will The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim take the house building idea that started with Oblivion and build on it with the rumored Hearthfire expansion? A new leak that hit on Tuesday suggests just that.

According to the source of the Hearthfire leak, players will be able to buy a piece of land construct their own cottage in Skyrim. They can then continue building it with the additions of different rooms making it larger and larger.

Here is the official description of Hearthfire according to the leaker.

Hearthfire, the next official game-add on for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, has arrived. For the first time in the Elder Scrolls universe, purchase land and build your own home from the ground up from a simple one-room cottage to a sprawling compound complete with armory, alchemy laboratory, trophy room, and more! With Hearthfire, the possibilities of what you can build are endless.

Bethesda Softworks first introduced the concept of customizing your own home a bit with the Wizard's Tower DLC for The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. This DLC gave access to the Frostcrag Spire that players could expand by purchasing an Alchemy Garden, Alchemy Lab, Library Area and more with in-game gold. It sounds like Bethesda is greatly expanding on this idea with Hearthfire.

The individual responsible for the leak is the same that leaked Mass Effect 3 DLC information so there's a credible background with this leak. We'll have to wait and see if it turns out to be true."
