Assassin’s Creed IV Blackbeard’s Wrath DLC Going Live This Week

The Assassin’s Creed IV Blackbeard’s Wrath DLC will go live this week for the PC, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360 and Xbox One. So far, there’s no word on a launch for the Wii U yet.

The Blackbeard’s Wrath DLC will add three new characters to multiplayer, two of which gamers will found familiar if they’ve gone through the single-player campaign. The star of the DLC is Blackbeard, who wields a sword and uses his strength to throw his targets off balance. Joining Blackbeard is Orchid, a Templar-friendly assassin that grew up in China. She executes opponents swiftly and gracefully with her katana. Lastly, there’s The Jaguar Cuali, an Aztec warrior from Mexico. His attacks are swift and quiet while wielding an axe.
