Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Assassin’s Creed 4 DLC Seems To Be Skipping Wii U

Tagged games:

Ubisoft has announced a new DLC pack available for Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag, but it doesn’t look like it’s got its sights set on Wii U. The Freedom Cry DLC – which you can see in the trailer above – will follow the story of slave-born Adewale, who’s recently found freedom as a pirate aboard the Jackdaw. Unfortunately, the Wii U was excluded from the list of platforms mentioned – PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, Xbox One, Xbox 360 and PC - in the European press release, whereas the North American press release didn’t reveal which platforms the DLC would arrive on.

A season pass was also announced alongside the reveal of the Freedom Cry DLC, which includes the exclusive Kraken ship pack, as well as more missions, weapons and multiplayer characters, offering a 20% discount. The season pass will retail at $19.99. Official confirmation is yet to come on whether the DLC will be included, but we’ll keep you updated for further news. Will you still be purchasing Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag on Wii U?

Main game for $60 is enough for me. There are other games to play as to keep playing this for 4 months.



Never too big on DLC anyway, still will be picking this up for Wii U eventually, probably when the price drops though as next year we will get AC 5 :p

I miss the days were games came complete on the original package and you didn't have to pay shit for extras you could unlock just by playing.



It isn't the first and won't be the last thing to skip the Wii U either. So no big deal.

Couldn't have said it better myself...



Dlc is a scam. Unless it is announced and released a full year after the full game.  I'm getting the Wii U ver of coarse.



not worried about the DLC- will buy the Wi U version of AC BF - if the Wi U version sells enough I am sure they will offer the DLC then- but I did not buy the DLC for ACIII so not too worried about it for BF



I'm excited about AC4 altogether. I'd like better visuals than the current gen, but I'm not exactly ready for the PS4 and X1 prices/subscription payments, so it looks like the Wii U version will be a good middle-ground. DLC is an afterthought, not the actual game.

I'll get it. It's surprisingly affordable to pre order in my country. This and Watch_Dogs are $69 to pre order where as the 4BONE versions are $90-something. I could get the PC version for the same price, but we'll see.
