Assassin's Creed II ''The Battle of Forli'' Dated

22
Alan Pettit

We've known about the price ($3.99), as well as a general overview of what to expect. Now, we know the date.

Ubisoft tweeted this morning that the anticipated first DLC for Assassin's Creed II, The Battle of Forli, will be available January 28th. Just barely made it for the planned January release, but it counts!

No word yet on any trophies, but if current trends are anything to go by and as Ubisoft's own history would suggest (EndWar, Prince of Persia), I'm going to pencil myself in for another AC2 news post next week.

The second DLC, The Bonfire of the Vanities ($4.99), is scheduled for sometime in February. We can probably expect a late entry for that as well.

  • Awesome!!!!!!! Can't wait. I'll definitely take a short break from Mass Effect for this.
  • I have been waiting for this ever since it was announced. So psyched!!!!!!!
  • I'm still trying to find all those damned feathers, but asides from that the game was great. I really want to see what happens in those missing two chapters.
  • I really want to continue playing Assassins Creed II, but I'll skip it if it doesn't include new trophies. Comparing trophies with my friends every day to see if they get's published on psn:D
  • For this game do they have online battle? I got it but not played for time, my friend said you can.
  • I hope the DLC will include trophies!!
  • @Joedel: No, but Ubisoft said, that they will release a new game with multiplayer or a new multiplayer Assassin's Creed, can't really remember...
  • @4 You just have to ask yourself, which is more fun: The games or the trophies? I like trophies, but I have been gaming by a simple principle for as long as I can remember. Go everywhere, do everything--I call it, "100%." If that's the case for you as well (and this goes for anyone), you can still rejoice at this DLC. Even if the publishers decide not to provide further trophies, it still leaves your gameplay experience less than 100%. In other words, you can have fun playing a game you obviously enjoy--simply for the fun of it. In the end, isn't that what gaming is all about? :D
  • i played this and got the platinum for it and once i did i deleted the save data and the game data as well , does anyone know if we'll just be able to access the dlc straight off coz i realy dont want to have to play the game again till i get to the missing chapters
  • Consider it blasphemy but I don't play games just because they have trophies :P Been waiting on more DLC for this one since I've beaten it and went back and actually did get the platinum for this one. Can't wait xD
  • I really enjoyed this game but it's traded now so I'll be missing out. :( @#8 With the TSL kicking off soon trophless games are a luxury many games can't afford at the moment :p
  • Sorry for the double post but what I meant to say above was.... @#8 With the TSL kicking off soon, trophyless games are a luxury many members can't afford at the moment :p
  • Finally, a date on the first dlc content. Defiently going to try and pick it up at least.
  • i agree with theRaion, play the game for fun not trophies :D I only use trophies as a sort of extension to games, it gives me the drive to do things i wouldnt do after ive finished the game. I also like to have the majortiy of trophies in games because otherwise it looks like i havent played said game.
  • YES! have been waiting for it like forever.... had a platinum on the game after 2 weeks (my first and only platinum) the game was awesome, but way too short! I sure hope they put in trophies, that would make it a lot more fun.
  • I love assassin's creed so much. this is a definite buy.
  • awesome game, me n my mate got the platinum on the same day. the price seems cheap for a dlc, which is great =P
  • platinumed this game in a week n ill get this if it includes trophies i hope it does
  • aah, this should be fun, now with Niccolò Machiavelli, lets see what he was doing to be part of ezio's group in S14A!
  • So is this going to be the corrupt memory data or something else all together? lol then again Im probably one of the few gamers who didn't play the first game and started off with this one.
  • yay just got platinum on this! hope moar trophies come with this! really enjoyed playin this game
  • Hey it's Pants! Hi Pants! :p
