Assassin's Creed Brotherhood: The Da Vinci Disappearance DLC (Xbox 360)

The only story DLC for Brotherhood, was it needed? Should you buy it? Well, it's DLC, often pointless and overpriced. Leonardo, Ezio's companion has been kidnapped and finding Da Vinci's paintings is the only clue Ezio has to locate him. The paintings are believed to lead to an underground tunnel to where Da Vinci has potentially been taken.

A small amount of content was added, but the only worthwhile element is the story. In the form of eight new memories, Ezio looks to find Da Vinci where he is introduced to amother friend of Da Vinci's and a new enemy gang. You spend the missions hunting down paintings and ultimately a final showdown. Most of the missions were standard, the best was actually one of the first, you spent it infiltrating a mansion and escaping. It was pretty all down from there.

The story starts in game and you can play during your original game. However, you have to have done certain sequences to play the whole story. I started after the original story, and just like the assignment missions, they expect you to do it before the story. Using tunnels during the mission somehow lead to you abandoning the story. At the end, you were thrown a boss out of nowhere, with no set up.

Ultimately, this was not needed and didn't really fit into the story at all. Not to say it was bad, I did enjoy the missions but you can skip this. For a decent price I'd certainly recommend a try, but at full price it has to be a pass.

3.1/5
