Your voice makes a difference.

Following the horrific launch of Assassin’s Creed: Unity, Ubisoft has announced that not only will players receive the Dead Kings DLC for free but will also offer a free game to those who already purchased the Season Pass. The choices on offer include The Crew, Far Cry 4, Watch Dogs, Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag, Rayman Legends and Just Dance 2015.

The Season Pass has currently been removed from stores but the content it will provide is still on track for delivery. The Dead Kings expansion will be “coming soon” according to the developer.

Meanwhile, Ubisoft Montreal/Toronto CEO Yannis Mallat officially apologized for the game’s shoddy quality at launch. “Unfortunately, at launch, the overall quality of the game was diminished by bugs and unexpected technical issues. I want to sincerely apologize on behalf of Ubisoft and the entire Assassin’s Creed team. These problems took away from your enjoyment of the game, and kept many of you from experiencing the game at its fullest potential.

“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. We are hopeful that with these forthcoming updates, everyone will be able to truly enjoy their Assassin’s Creed Unity experience.”
