Assassin’s Creed: Unity Dead Kings DLC arriving next week

Assassin's Creed: Unity's first DLC, titled ‘Dead Kings', is coming out next week, after being delayed from December following the game's awful launch, which saw the developers scurry to launch four patches on all platforms to try and fix the game.

The Dead Kings DLC will be free for all Assassin's Creed: Unity owners, as a sorry gift from Ubisoft thanks to the game's launch issues. Dead Kings takes place after the events of the main game, offering a new single-player campaign set in the crypts of past French kings. [yframe url='http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tTum-VS71Dk']

Aside from the new campaign missions, players will also get some new weapons, gear and outfits. We don't know how long the Dead Kings DLC will take to complete but it sounds like a fairly substantial release.

KitGuru Says:  Assassin's Creed: Unity has been patched up during the months following its launch so I guess the time is right to release some DLC. I imagine many of those disgruntled by the game's launch troubles won't be bothering to reinstall and play the DLC.

It tends to take a lot for gamers to 'forgive' a studio after messing up a launch, for instance CD Projekt Red had to spend three additional years developing Cyberpunk 2077 before many were willing to give the game another shot. In the case of Helldivers 2, despite the game having some rough server issues at launch, the game turned out to be so good that many players simply waited things out, without leaving a trail of negative reviews. Now, a case of incredibly poor communication and a poorly thought-out plan from the game's publisher, Sony, has put Helldivers 2 in jeopardy, with the game being removed from over 170 countries.
