Ben-DutkaIt's one of our favorite games and if you're a fan, you'll want to pick up any available downloadable content.
Today, Ubisoft announced The Da Vinci Disappearance add-on for the 2010 award-winner, Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood . This piece of DLC will be available on the PlayStation Network for $9.99 and on Xbox Live for 800 Microsoft Points, and it'll launch next month. It'll feature both single-player and multiplayer content and the new story is as follows:
"After the fall of the Borgias in Rome, Leonardo Da Vinci is kidnapped by the Hermeticists, an underground cult dedicated to transforming mankind. Ezio will embark on a relentless quest to recover stolen paintings in order to find Leo before it is too late, discovering two new locations and two new gameplay features along the way."
The multiplayer addition is the "biggest yet;" we get one new map, four new characters and two new game modes. The new map, Alhambra, is set in Spain's Albaicin of Granada and "provides multi-leveled indoor and outdoor areas perfect for predators to lurk in the dense crowd for unsuspecting targets."
The four new characters are the Dama Rossa, the Knight, the Marquis, and the Pariah, and the two new modes are Escort and Assassinate. Escort has two teams of four players competing to protect a VIP target or assassinate the other team's VIP. In Assassinate, "six to eight players are pitted against each other deathmatch-style in one ten-minute round."
If you haven't tried Brotherhood online, you're missing out on a refreshing non-shooter experience.
