Following the difficult launch of Assassin's Creed: Unity, where the game was plagued by bugs and glitches, Ubisoft have taken the decision to make the first piece of paid-for DLC - Dead Kings - free to one and all.

Dead Kings is the first part of the Season Pass, which has now been halted. Those who've already bought the Season Pass will be given a free game of their choice (out of The Crew, Far Cry 4, Watch Dogs, Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag, Rayman Legends, Just Dance 2015) which must be redeemed by March 15, 2015. Season Pass owners will also "continue to have access to a variety of additional content, including Assassin's Creed Chronicles: China."

"To show our appreciation for your continued support, we're making the upcoming Assassin's Creed Unity Dead Kings DLC free for everyone. For Season Pass holders, we will also offer the choice of one additional game from a selection of Ubisoft titles for free," said Ubisoft's Yannis Mallat.

"In addition to the latest patch and this offer, we are committed to delivering further fixes for other issues you've raised. In the meantime, please keep your feedback coming - it has been both humbling and incredibly helpful as we continue working hard to improve the overall quality of the game."

So no more Season Pass from here on in, you'll have to buy the content individually if you want it. If you've already bought one, time to pick your free game. Head here for more details.

REVIEW. Written by Mika Sorvari

"You'll scream, swear and pound your head against the coffee table, and then you'll reload the game, because when it works, it really works."
