AC Unity Dead Kings Free DLC available on January 13

Ubisoft is rewarding the patience of Assassin’s Creed Unity players for Unity’s troubled launch with new Dead Kings DLC that will be free for all players who own AC Unity. New DLC will be available next week on January 13 on PC, Xbox One and PlayStation 4.

Here’s how Ubisoft describes the story for Dead Kings:

Picking up following the events of Assassin’s Creed Unity, the new Dead Kings DLC leads Arno to the dark and dreary city of Saint Denis, the final resting place of French royalty. But what will Arno uncover in the dismal and decrepit crypts that lie beneath the foreboding Basillica? Mysteries and intrigue fold in on themselves within the shadows of Saint Denis’ ancient catacombs, threatening to envelope Arno as well!

Enter the subterranean warren of tunnels and chambers armed with new weaponry to bolster Arno’s arsenal. Included in this update is the multipurpose Guillotine Gun which combines the skull-splitting heft of a heavy axe with the room-clearing blast radius of a grenade launcher.

Dead Kings also adds new co-op and single-player missions as well as new open world activities including treasure hunts, contracts and Murder Mysteries, delivering plenty of extra content to blow into smithereens with your new Guillotine Gun.

In letting go of a lifetime of regret, Arno may also lose his life to the secrets buried within Saint Denis…
