Far Cry 4 isn't the only Ubisoft game launching DLC today. Assassin's Creed Unity is also getting a new DLC campaign today with the launch of Dead Kings.

Normally this would be the part where there would be pricing details. Of course, it should be noted that Assassin's Creed Unity had some problems. Ok, it had a lot of problems. It had so many problems that Ubisoft actually canceled the game's Season Pass, which makes Dead Kings a free download for all players, whether they originally purchased it or not.

So for those that need a refresher on Dead Kings, this takes place after the events of the main game and sees Arno journeying towards Saint Denis. He soon finds himself exploring the catacombs beneath the Basilica, where he must uncover the secrets of the departed French kings, while also confronting a whole new enemy faction called the Raiders.

But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
