Fans of Assassin’s Creed 4, here is some good news to help you start the day right – the first DLC for the gaming franchise is made available already, and do bear in mind that this DLC will concentrate on just the multiplayer aspect, so do not get too excited if you prefer to fly it solo most of the time. The DLC, known as Blackbeard’s Wrath, will see the introduction of a trio of new characters to the roster, where they will obviously include the notorious Blackbeard himself, accompanied by a pair of rather stereotypical ethnic characters.

The other two choices apart from Blackbeard would be the the Chinese and Aztec Assassins. One of them has been given the name “The Orchid,” while the other is better known as “The Jaguar”, and without having to let you know which is which, you would already be able to figure out the owner of the respective monikers. Just a quick note – folks who already have the Black Flag Season Pass, you would not need to fork out a single cent for the DLC. As for the rest of the masses (meaning those who own a PC, Xbox or PlayStation console), it will cost you $2.99 a pop.

If you’ve got a PlayStation 4 and have been following the story with live streaming with Twitch, you may already know the odd result of allowing the console’s “The Playroom” app through the gate.

Are you a huge fan of the Assassin’s Creed franchise? If you have answered in the affirmative, then you would definitely have given Assassin’s Creed 4 a go already, and this time around, we have a spanking new single player DLC that has been unveiled where it will star shipmate Adewale. The time setting? A good 15 years of clock fast forwarding is required. This is the first single player DLC for Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag from Ubisoft, where it is tipped to launch before March 2014 rolls around. In Freedom Cry, one will be able to enjoy nine missions of “self-contained” single-player story.

Ubisoft mentioned, “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.”

This particular content will be made available as part of a Season Pass, where one will be able to enjoy a 20% discount after purchasing each piece of AC4′s upcoming DLC on an individual basis. Apart from that, the Season Pass will also include additional single-player missions, weapons, skins and collectibles, not to mention new multiplayer characters.

There are some gaming titles that are classified as surefire blockbusters, while others might not be so commercially successful, but are deemed to be classics that need to be played at least once in your lifetime. I will leave it to you as to how you want to categorize XCOM: Enemy Unknown, considering it proved to be one of the most uniquely compelling games that rolled out last year, but unfortunately, the DLC (downloadable content) for this game has been deemed to be just “too big” for consoles.

The soon to arrive DLC, known as Enemy Within, will comprise of a ton of upgrades and content, where among them includes new unit types and even skill alterations. This would mean a total re-release of the game, which is why we are due to check out the special Commander’s Edition. This particular edition will boast of the original game, Slingshot and Elite Soldier add-ons, as well as the Enemy Within expansion. If you are interested in just purchasing the DLC, it will be available on the PC and Mac platforms for $30 a pop.

Firaxis Games senior producer Garth DeAngelis said, “For the expansion on the PC, it was fairly straightforward. But when it came to the consoles, it was too big. If we wanted to deliver the same content to the console players, we had to do it this way as a standalone expansion on a disc. We couldn’t simply just patch it in.”
