Xbox 360 owners eagerly awaiting the second piece of free downloadable content for Assassin's Creed Brotherhood were given a brief scare last night, as a title update for the game broke online multiplayer on the eve of the Animus 2.0 update.

CVG reports that the Xbox 360 patch was sent out to prepare the game for upcoming DLC and "some major updates." But server issues caused a multiplayer glitch, which has since been fixed. Downloading the current patch should leave you error-free.

And not a moment too soon. Today the free Animus 2.0 update hit Xbox Live and PlayStation Network, adding a Chest Capture mode, Templar Score feature and a new Pienza map. So far Ubisoft hasn't discussed future DLC plans, but the company has garnered some goodwill among gamers by offering two moderately sized multiplayer expansions free of charge.

        I mean even a bonus borgia guy or something, maybe another L mission... anything.

        I definitely don't play AC for multiplayer!

      They want to shove this multiplayer down our throats man. Its cute, but in the end everyone runs around like jerk offs cause they lack patience. The strength of this property is single player and they know it, but they want to position this property as a multiplayer fest so they can start to milk it for all its worth since this is the only profitable thing Ubi has.

      They can kiss my ass.

      Give me some single player stuff and stop with all this multiplayer garbage.
