14 DAY TRIAL // Ubisoft has just issued a press release in which it details Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag season pass and downloadable content, which will be available after the game’s release.
Players who are more attached to story-driven expansion packs will be pleased to know Ubisoft plans to launch the so-called Freedom Cry DLC after March 2014.
Freedom Cry will be available as downloadable content for Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag and follows the story of Adewale, a pirate aboard the Jackdaw as Captain Edward Kenway’s second-in-command.
According to Ubisoft, Freedom Cry offers at least 3 hours of gameplay following a nine mission self-contained story.
“Born a slave, Adewale found freedom as a pirate aboard the Jackdaw as Captain Edward Kenway's second-in-command. Fifteen years later, Adewale has become a trained assassin and finds himself shipwrecked in Saint-Domingue with no weapon nor crew, starting a new adventure of his own,” says Ubisoft.
The Season Pass for Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag will be available for purchase at launch of the game on all platforms, including PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, Xbox One and Windows PC.
Aside from the already mentioned single-player “Freedom Cry” DLC, the Season Pass has been confirmed to include the following content:
- The Exclusive Kraken Ship Pack – Only available to Season Pass owners, this pack includes personalization elements for the Jackdaw.
- New ways to personalize the player's pirate experience – Additional single player missions, weapons, skins, and collectibles.
- More Multiplayer Mayhem – Unlock new characters for an even more expansive multiplayer experience.
Ubisoft also states that Assassin's Creed 4 Black Flag Season Pass grants a 20% savings off the regular price of each individual downloadable pack to be released before March 2014, and, as mentioned earlier, will be available on PlayStation 4, Playstation 3, Xbox One, Xbox 360 and PC.
