    Far far far better than the main story of Unity. Honestly I feel that this should've been the main game. The plot and ending has a better payoff, the atmosphere is more interesting, and the character interactions are more interesting.

    This is a short and dreary story of Arno collecting a piece of eden. It doesn't do anything but pad out the base game so if you liked the base game you'll like this.

    This DLC is more interesting than the main game. The new citadel Franciade very reminiscent of Forlì The Assassins Creed 2 with the fog light and the pleasant atmosphere humid.

The story is very diverse and offers many hours of fun between phases groundwater and outdoor stages. Added to this are the numerous side missions, new enemies, and last but not least the '' guiliottine '' ... all for free !! Unfortunately, as in Unity in Dead Kings are found annoying drops in frame that ruin in part the game experience here despite the frame rate seems a little more stable ripetto to the main game.

    Questo DLC è più interessante del gioco principale. La nuova cittadella di Franciade ricorda molto La Forlì di Assassins Creed 2 con quella nebbia leggera e quelle gradevoli atmosfere umide. La storia è molto varia e offre diverse ore di divertimento fra fasi sotterranee e fasi all'aperto. A questo vanno aggiunte le numerose missioni secondarie, i nuovi nemici e dulcis in fundo la ''guiliottine''...il tutto gratis!! Purtroppo come in Unity anche in Dead Kings si riscontrano dei fastidiosi cali di frame che rovinano in parte l'esperienza di gioco malgrado qui il frame rate sembra un filo più stabile ripetto al gioco principale.    … Expand

    Very lackluster DLC. No wonder it's free. Story is absolute rubbish. Graphics/locations look good. But the missions are really stupid and there are some bugs and lazy programming.

    I did it because it is free, but actualy the main game would have been enough for me. Very mediocre.

    After the release of the main game in a rough shape, the community showed their disappointment throughout reviews and Ubisoft as an apology, decided to release the Dead Kings DLC as a free bonus content.

    You have again, many chests to collect, artifacts, riddles to finish and other side quest like Franciade Stories, Murder Mysteries (which are easier than the easiest Mystery available in the main game) and Liberate Outpost missions which are also pretty easy to complete ( you just have to kill 3 officers and escape the area).

    All in all a pretty short experience and as this DLC is free, I recommend you to try it.    … Expand

    Dead Kings has some good moments and feels like a nice apology from Ubisoft for the original game’s mess. Going back to the roots of the series fits really well into this DLC.

    The bleak backdrop of Franciade sums up this miserable outing, as you engage in dreary underground missions built around the most rudimentary of brazier-based puzzles.

    Old crypts and catacombs are very interesting and reminds me Brotherhood's catacomb missions. The Dead Kings offers a huge mission area for a DLC, but this time, storyline is very problematic. Whatever, its a free DLC (and huge one).
