[Watch] Ubisoft talks Assassin’s Creed Origins post launch support; Season Pass, Free Content listed and detailed

If you're concerned about what Ubisoft will be bringing to Assassin's Creed Origins for an extra price, you're in luck! A bunch of DLC information has been released.

Ubisoft has given us an extremely detailed look at what their plans for Assassin's Creed Origins' post-launch support looks like in their latest video. The game will have a mix of paid and free content for players to explore and while some of it will be available at launch, quite a bit of it won't come until 2018.

Check out the details below and get a look at some of it in the video above.

Season Pass Content:

  • DLC 1: The Hidden Ones: This story-driven expansion builds upon the growth of the Brotherhood, taking players to a point years after the events of Assassin’s Creed Origins, as they clash with an occupying Roman force in a new region. This expansion will extend the level cap, allowing players to keep on making their character progress.
    • Available in January 2018.
  • DLC 2: The Curse of the Pharaohs: In this story-driven expansion focusing on Egyptian mythology, players will fight against undead pharaohs and explore a new, mystical realm. During their journey, players will encounter famed Egyptian beasts such as Anubis warriors, scorpions and more, as they investigate the cause of the curse that has brought the dead pharaohs back to life. The Curse of the Pharaohs will increase the level cap further and introduce brand new Abilities.
    • Available in March 2018.
  • The Roman Centurion and Horus Packs: Two exclusive add-on packs including a new outfit, weapons, shield and mount.
    • Available in November 2017.
  • A package of 500 Helix Credits: Available at the launch of the game.
  • An exclusive rare weapon, the Calamity Blade.
    • Available at the launch of the game.

Free activities for all:

  • The Trials of the Gods: Epic boss battles against Egyptian gods that take place during special timed events – victorious players will receive prestigious rewards.
    • The first Trial of the Gods event will be available 15 days after the launch of the game.
  • The Nomad’s Bazaar: A wandering merchant gives players daily quests to complete in order to earn mysterious exotic rewards.
    • Available at the launch of the game.
  • Photo Mode: Players will be able to capture and share the beauty of the Egyptian landscape and indulge their inner wildlife photographer while discovering in-game pictures taken by other players.
    • Available at the launch of the game.
  • Horde Mode: Players will fight endless waves of enemies in the Gladiator Arena. They will be able to compare their scores with their friends and challenge them asynchronously.
    • Available in early 2018.
  • Discovery Tour: This new educational mode turns the world of Assassin’s Creed Origins into a combat-free living museum and will give everyone the opportunity to learn more about Ancient Egypt through guided tours curated by historians and Egyptologists.
    • Available early 2018.

In other Assassin's Creed Origins news, information on loot chests has released, as well as a note from the game's director on how there won't be 'filler content' in the game. In addition to this, the Trophies/Achievements for the game have been revealed.
