Assassin’s Creed: Unity has been privy to the vaguest of unveilings thus far, but already publisher Ubisoft is plotting the PlayStation 4 title’s first expansion pack. In fairness to the French firm, it probably didn’t intend for this information to leak. Moreover, this appears to be a simple pre-order bonus rather than anything significant – but you can be sure that post-release packs are also in the pipeline.
The tidbit was spotted as part of a poster at North American retailer GameStop, which explains that pre-orders will be rewarded with the ‘Chemical Revolution Mission’. While it’s hard to make out the artwork, some theories suggest that the character in the picture is Antoine Lavoisier, an 18th century scientist widely regarded as the “Father of Modern Chemistry”. Expect an official announcement to be added to the E3 broth next week.

Gotta hate all these money grabs, why can developers can just focus first on releasing a complete game. T_T
DLC ALREADY! this is getting stupid we now know more about the games DLC than we do about the game itself
@FullbringIchigo To be fair, it's a pre-order bonus, but yeah, it sounds more than your usual costume or bit of tat.
These things will continue as long as shops like CEX continue. Games companies don't get any (more) money on pre-owned games. Don't want loads of DLC from companies? Buy games full price. Simple. Not something I agree with at all by the way, just the simple truth. Either buy full price or stop whining.
I know this is just a pre order thing but u know that ubi soft has already got the DLC planned out. They must just sit around and think of things they can not include in their games so that they can just milk the season passes they are doing now. Its starting to get really annoying now that they think that its so acceptable.
@get2sammyb I also noticed it was pre-order off #2 I wonder what the first is?
Ugh...I'm done. I just...I'm done.
@rastamadeus
Its not the DLC people have a problem with, its the way its used. Why is it that pre-order goodies are the first thing we learn about the game?
I don't think anyone really has a problem with giving people incentive to buy brand-new, but trying to coax people into pre-ordering before any info on a game is released is sneaky and underhanded at best. How about leaving the mystery curtains to the game shows, huh?
