I think for me, the best DLC has to be Odyssey's. I can't even imagine playing the game without it. The DLC just adds so much locale variety and gives us loads of ISU lore. We also get closure to many of the different story beats and substantial amount of present day progression too. After that, maybe AC3's DLC because it is a nice step up in difficulty and the different power you get does make traversing way more fun, even if the eagle one kinda breaks parkour.
I love the Atlantis one, becuase it's such a major addition to the lore. Not only in it's main plot, but even mostly in documents you can find all over it's map.
@@TheHiddenOne690 I will have to comment though my slight annoyance on the placement of Ezio in your strongest protagonists tier list. Felt like you were legit sleeping on him. Dude is only rivaled by Altaïr in terms of skill, should have been much higher. Sure he doesn’t have his moments of putting his guns to work, but his status alone should propel him high
@@TheHiddenOne690 Let’s be straight up honest, Ezio would kick Shay’s ass in a fight, especially considering that Ezio killed more Templars than Shay did Assassins. And he defied death a lot more times than Shay. He could also hold his own against Bayek. As the Egyptian Assassin often fights with rage, while Ezio plans his missions ahead of time. Ezio and Connor could duke it out but maybe they’d not fight considering that Ezio would admire Connor’s work in dismantling the Templar Order in Colonial America. Connor in turn would praise Ezio’s work during the Renaissance
There are a few missing small DLCs: Copernicus missions from Brotherhood. Benedict Arnold missions from AC3. Avelin dlc from Black Flag. Korfu dlc from Odyssey. Are "The Lost Tales of Greece" quests also considered dlc? Valhalla has a lot of small dlcs like river raids, the one with Kassandra and the 6 tombs.
According to IGN Valhalla has 8 DLCs: A Fated Encounter, River Raids, Tombs of the Fallen, Wrath of the Druids, The Siege of Paris, Dawn of Ragnarok, The Forgotten Saga and The Last Chapter. There is also a quest with Roshan but I don't think it is considered as dlc.
Finally acknowledgment for the AC3 DLC. My fav since day one. Connor with superpowers is such an cool concept. Love how Ubi tried the same concept with Edward for a AC4 DLC but sadly scrapped it for Freedom Cry
the tyranny of king washington dlc literally switches the roles conors father was an assasin he is dead red coats are good blue coats are bad and enemies are allies and allies are enemies
My Top 5 Assassin's Creed DLC's: Freedom Cry - Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag. Jack The Ripper - Assassin's Creed Syndicate. The Tyranny Of King Washington - Assassin's Creed III. Dead Kings - Assassin's Creed Unity. The Disappearance Of Da Vinci - Assassin's Creed Brotherhood.
I always found that Legacy of the Hidden Blade focused on the zones that don’t have you do much in them for the main storyline. Almost every other place has you visit at some point but those ones don’t if I remember correctly.
Yes, you're right. The three areas that you explore in Legacy of the First Blade, are fairly underused in the base game. You can go there, but there is not much to do compared to most of the other regions. Legacy of the First Blade fleshes out those areas with much more to do.
@@BenChurchill76 thank you. It’s been a while so I couldn’t remember but I thought that’s how it was. I remember going to them in base game for the territory battle and it just being empty which felt especially egregious for Macedonia.
@@thomasleonardis711 Yup, you're right. In the base game all three of those areas are fairly devoid of content. There aren't any major quests there, so they must have planned the DLC to take place there so they left it a bit more boring.
I just wanna say that I’ve been watching you since you had about 30k subscribers and you always every week come out with a new and exciting topic about Assassins creed with consistent quality that never ceases to amaze me. Keep doing what you’re doing man because you’re doing right!
I am right in playing any AC game once more back from start. I have never played a single DLC except of both in Odyssey and Dead Kings, but now you made me wanna play every DLC of your list in this playthrough :D Thank you for your constant AC content!!
Wow hahaha I played The Last Maharaja back in 2016 when it was released!! I've always enjoyed it but I can understand why some people don't like it. Also congratulations on getting Platinum on AC Syndicate!!! I've almost finished the entire game, I'm at 99% synchronization. 🤩🤩🤩🎊🎊🎊😎😎😎👍👍👍💙💙💙🔥🔥🔥✨✨✨
@@JSGaming0327 To platinum ac syndicate you do not need to achieve 100% synchronization, But thanks. I mean, in the main missions, yes, but not in general. not in every thing
I’ve been eager to see this video from TheHiddenOne and now it’s out. Now to see the release of MasterAssassin’s ranking video of the AC games which should come out some time after Shadows is released.
I feel like dawn of ragnorok fits with the Norse mythology world of assassin’s creed, more than god of war, because the fact that kratos’ son is Loki ruins so much myths
57:33 Huh? I literally always play these levels as Jacob. In fact they're the only levels I like playing a Jacob. The game even used to have a Sherlock Holmes costume for him to wear until Ubisoft pulled an Ubisoft and made the costume disappear from your account without monetarily compensating you for your lost purchase.
For me the best is Atlantis, I am a sucker for Ancient Greek gods and culture and the 3 worlds and characters were amazing, objectively I can see why it isn't as high as other ones, but for me it is the best. And props for including dreadful crimes, I also think it is highly underappreciated tho isnt it just content pack? Idk if it is fair to compare it to full DLCs...
Legacy of the First Blade is my favorite Assassin's Creed DLC, and is my favorite part of Odyssey. I was shocked to learn that I am clearly in the minority with my opinion of it. I loved both the story and gameplay. I personally totally understood the relationship between Kassandra and Natakas, and don't understand at all why he is hated to the degree that he is. Overall, I think it's a great DLC for a great game.
I didn't mind the Natakas storyline personally, but I imagine for most people it just didn't fit with the version of Kassandra they had formed in their heads. Always a danger when writing RPG stories, I think if the base game had less choices and more of a set narrative, the reception of the dlc would have been better. Mind you, the end of that dlc has a cut scene that shows the Pyramids of Giza being constructed in 420 BC, so it's far from perfect 😅
Honestly to me this DLC and Fate of Atlantis did Odyssey so much justice. I was really meh on the base game but it’s DLCs just got me so intrigued. Natakas and Darius were cool characters tbh and the story was so captivating
Natakas/Neema is largely there to allow the Eagle Bearer a bloodline and to be fridged (killed off to motivate the protagonist). We don’t even get to see Kassandra/Alexios as a proper parent since they just hold a baby or see it off with Darius for an eventual Aya cameo. Considering that Vacation, canonically the last time Kassandra is in Greece in the Ancient period, has her ponder going to Egypt (where she leaves Herodotus’s scroll at the Library of Alexandria, the dev team revisiting more Origins assets to show Kassandra visiting her bloodline had potential.
It was an interesting move to drop the two Odyssey story packs as three individual chapters, and certainly helps them to stand out from the DLC of the other games at least in format. It’d have given the developers a bit more time, only needing to get a third of the DLC done to meet a deadline whilst having the opportunity to see what did and didn’t work for Episode 1 and work that into Episode 3.
I can agree its a solid list even if my opinon on some placements differ. My favorite DLC's was The Fate of Atlantis. I loved the crazy abilities and Elysium, Underworld and Atlantis were all stunning. Having it deal with the Isu was cool too. Curse of the Pharohs was another favorite. I liked the Wrath of the Druids and Seige of Paris a bit too but found Dawn of Ragnarok super underwhelming. Glad i got it on sale, but then again I waited and got most of these DLC on sale.
The Lost Archive for Revelations is indeed included on PSN, but only for Essential and Premium Users who have access to Ubisoft Classics that include all Assassin's Creed games
That dude singing about bayek in the beginning of the hidden ones singlehandedly made it a 10/10 😂😂 I like Curse of the Pharaohs as a DLC twice as much as I like the hidden ones except The hidden ones made me so thrilled to see that aya didn't give up on Bayek after their break up
I agree on placing The Lost Archive at the lowest. while I did like the premise of us learning more about the assassins in modern times, the trophies involved are what made me dislike it so much. 2 trophies that come to mind are making it across the river without falling in or dying once and the other is to finish the enter the animus sequence without dying or falling. for the river part, you have to be patient and get lucky but I eventually did it. as for the enter the animus sequence, it kept annoying me to the point that I looked up a way to see if it was possible to skip in entirely and luckily there was a glitch to do just that
Fate of Atlantis is #1 for me. Nothing in gaming will ever beat the first time I loaded into Atlantis. The ISU lore it explained was fascinating and we’ve never gotten anything like that before in the franchise.
All that campy supernatural Ancient Aliens stuff is so annoying and distracting. All we want is to play an assassin in a historical setting with a lot of attention to detail and actual historical figures to assassinate.
@SuperMaanas absolutely agree with you. Not only the Isu lore and the architecture of Atlantis is just breathtaking, but also the engravings and some of the abilities enhancements unlocked are also the most game breaking stuff we ever got. Hunter damage conversion+Korfu Champion engraving=+100% warrior and assassin damage for free(in a good build, it is usually +140-160% in fact) Warrior/assassin damage conversion+second sight engraving=2 billion damage glitch Ares Madness=8x more damage in the Greek world for absolutely no reason Ares Bull Charge+’+2 charges for ares bull charge ability’=another crowd control ability that deals 150% more warrior damage than ring of chaos
Here's one thing relating to DLCs I've discovered. While we all know that Mirage started off as a DLC storyline for Valhalla but it eventually became it's own game. Well did you know that Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag also started off as a DLC storyline for Assassin's Creed III? Yep, in fact, you can see many similarities between Mirage and Black Flag, even though yes, both have different gameplay styles and different storylines, I mean in turns of development history and striking similar set-up ideas, both started off as a prequel DLC storyline for the previous game in the series where the main character is a character we already know about from that last game, but it eventually became it's own game and the game became beloved by fans. Might wanna talk about this for a future video.
I'm one of those weirdos who actually enjoyed the platforming puzzles of the Revelations dlc. Not only was it a good story, but felt like a chill change of pace. Didn't take long to get through either.
I think wrath of the druids should be ranked higher. Because it is easily the money farm. After you collect all the trading post and upgrade them. What you do is a you play in England or anywhere else inside the game and go back to Ireland about every 30 minutes and they will give you max rewards which you can sell for 600 silver. Also, it gave us like six new armors.
The lost archive is included in the ezio series remaster (in revelations, the trophies are merged) It might be a remaster but you can still get o some objectives by getting pushed out of bounds.
Great video, man! to me, Fate of Atlantis is the best DLC of the entire series. It is just majestical, beyond imagination, specifically, the actual Atlantis. Followed by Wrath of the Druids. And completing the podium with Freedom Cry.
I loved the underworld dlc mainly because it gave closure between kassandra and phoebe who died too early in her life. Not to mention we get to face off against the crime boss cyclops again.
My personal favorite has to be Valhalla's Siege of Paris. It had some great assassinations and boss fights, a beautiful world, and excellent characters
10:28 I honestly have a favorable memory of this mission. For the first time it seemed like I had to genuinely play like a assassin. The mild frustration and restarts gave way to a slower and more observational and clinical pace. It was the way I tried to play most of the game initially. But I do like your solution of "gathering intelligence", something that I enjoyed so much in the first game, but was sadly left to flounder in favor of more... generic (?) gameplay mechanics.
Could you do a second video on all the bonus level DLCs, both ranking them and explaining you how to get hold of them. Here's (what I think is) a list, though your research may turn up more: ACII Palazzo Medici Basilica di Santa Maria Gloriosa dei Frari Arsenale di Venezia Brotherhood Copernicus Conspiracy Revelations Vlad the Imapler's Prison [Rhodes] - Mediterranean game only. Got a feeling that Ubisoft weirdly didn't make this available in Remastered edition, which frankly should have had everything, no exceptions. If so, let's shame them into releasing a very minor patch. AC3 The Hidden Secrets Pack Benedict Arnold Memories Liberation Connor's Way / A Different Point of view Black Flag Black Island Mystery Island Sacrifice Island Rogue The Armour of Sir Gunn The Siege of Fort de Sable Unity Secrets of the Revolution Syndicate A Long Night out on the Town Streets of London Origins Here comes a New challenger Ambush at Sea Secrets of the First Pyramids Trails of the Gods Odyssey The Blind King Secrets of Greece Lost Tales of Greece Those who are treasured Valhalla The Way of the Berserker A Fated Encounter Mirage The Forty Thieves
yeah, the whole forced romance in the first blade was weird considering the base game was all about choices. Just felt like it was shoehorned in because people complained odyssey had nothing to do with AC
I think the AC2 DLCs would work so much better if they could only be accessed after the main story - you get the more demanding combat of Forli and the less forgiving stealth of Bonfire as 'endgame' tests, capped off by the Ezio final speech, which is a more conclusive end to AC2 as a game by itself
Forli is at least easy enough to just rush it. But Bonfire with all the "don't get detected" while you have 300 enemies and very little ways to kill them silently without all the other enemies being able to see you is just cancer.
Three Assassin's Creed games I would love to see 1 join the Mongolian Empire 2 during Alexander's the great Conquest of Persia 3 set during the peak of the Roman Empire..
One of my issues with the Wrath of the Druids is it does a disservice to Irish duridism and paganism and just interperets "pagan" as "spooky" and is a very one dimensional understanding of it. Also with the Fate of Atlantis and the Pantheon, I always found it weird there was never mention of Prometheus who, in classical mythology, created humans; as we know, the Isu created humans as a labor force and Prometheus giving them fire could have marked the beginning of their rebellion against the Isu.
Avelines DLC from black flag was definitely my least favourite, I was expecting it to play like Freedom Cry but it’s only 3 linear missions for 5 dollars with no open world whatsoever.
Last Maharaja is so bad. I played it and the whole time I was questioning what I was doing because, like you said, the only cutscenes are only at the start and end. It could have been so interesting because of his irl friendship with Victoria and how badly he was treated by some people. But nope As for the AC2 "DLC" I think it's wild no one talks about how Ubisoft had locked two whole sequences behind a pay wall. I remember playing AC2 and feeling like I missed something then playing those two a while later. They literally only exist two show off two famous events and that's it imo.
It's a shame they did such a bad job at the Last Maharaja DLC because Duleep Singh is such an interesting (and tragic) historical figure but everything interesting around him just slips under the rug with a bad plotline and bad missions. This could have went somewhere way better.
Freedom Cry is #1 for me. It's the only one I know of that is a stand-alone dlc. You don't need to own Black Flag to play it. I remember in 2014 when I first got a PS4 I had spent all my money on the console and only had enough to download Freedom Cry for like $10. I played it for so long that by the time I was done I had freed about 5000 slaves LOL.
I was just about to start The Tyranny of King Washington before i decided i wanted to play the Wolfenstein games and i completely forgot about and now its been almost a year since i played AC3 but at least i know its going to be good when i get round to playing it
May be worth taking an in depth look back at Unity and how it has redeemed itself/people should give it another chance in 2024 now that it runs a lot better
I wonder where you would fit the "Crossover Stories" DLC packs for both AC Odyssey and AC Valhalla? In Odyssey we go to Korfu, and in Valhalla, it's the Isle of Skye. Personally, I much prefer Odyssey's Korfu DLC, but I'm curious where you'd put them in your list. Was your criteria only paid DLC? Well...except you did include the free one from Unity...
I just included the ones I played ngl. I played through korfu but I can't remember anything that happened because I played through it when it first released
@@TheHiddenOne690 understandable; considering how much you had to play through for this video. I’m currently playing bits of Odyssey, Valhalla, AC 3, and the Ezio Collection, and I’m already feeling burnout! 😂

I think for me, the best DLC has to be Odyssey's. I can't even imagine playing the game without it. The DLC just adds so much locale variety and gives us loads of ISU lore. We also get closure to many of the different story beats and substantial amount of present day progression too.
After that, maybe AC3's DLC because it is a nice step up in difficulty and the different power you get does make traversing way more fun, even if the eagle one kinda breaks parkour.

Great video, man! to me, Fate of Atlantis is the best DLC of the entire series. It is just majestical, beyond imagination, specifically, the actual Atlantis. Followed by Wrath of the Druids. And completing the podium with Freedom Cry.
I don’t know if you’ve played splinter cell but a splinter cell iceberg would be pretty cool
I loved the underworld dlc mainly because it gave closure between kassandra and phoebe who died too early in her life. Not to mention we get to face off against the crime boss cyclops again.
Great video
My favorite 3 ( not in order)
Jack the ripper
Fate of Atlantis
Hidden ones
My personal favorite has to be Valhalla's Siege of Paris. It had some great assassinations and boss fights, a beautiful world, and excellent characters
10:28 I honestly have a favorable memory of this mission. For the first time it seemed like I had to genuinely play like a assassin. The mild frustration and restarts gave way to a slower and more observational and clinical pace. It was the way I tried to play most of the game initially. But I do like your solution of "gathering intelligence", something that I enjoyed so much in the first game, but was sadly left to flounder in favor of more... generic (?) gameplay mechanics.
Aight hear me out, what if like, every time the video ends, he said "I'll see you in the next one, Assassin" BOOM!!
10:32 Same bro I hated that mission it took me 12 tries to even pass it 💀
Could you do a second video on all the bonus level DLCs, both ranking them and explaining you how to get hold of them.
Here's (what I think is) a list, though your research may turn up more:
ACII
Palazzo Medici
Basilica di Santa Maria Gloriosa dei Frari
Arsenale di Venezia
Brotherhood
Copernicus Conspiracy
Revelations
Vlad the Imapler's Prison
[Rhodes] - Mediterranean game only. Got a feeling that Ubisoft weirdly didn't make this available in Remastered edition, which frankly should have had everything, no exceptions. If so, let's shame them into releasing a very minor patch.
AC3
The Hidden Secrets Pack
Benedict Arnold Memories
Liberation
Connor's Way / A Different Point of view
Black Flag
Black Island
Mystery Island
Sacrifice Island
Rogue
The Armour of Sir Gunn
The Siege of Fort de Sable
Unity
Secrets of the Revolution
Syndicate
A Long Night out on the Town
Streets of London
Origins
Here comes a New challenger
Ambush at Sea
Secrets of the First Pyramids
Trails of the Gods
Odyssey
The Blind King
Secrets of Greece
Lost Tales of Greece
Those who are treasured
Valhalla
The Way of the Berserker
A Fated Encounter
Mirage
The Forty Thieves
First time ever people telling me that Siege of Paris(Valhalla)is better than Fate of Atlantis(Odyssey)AND Wrath of the Druids 🤔
nice, within one hour! your videos make my day lol
It makes sense that Evie is given the spotlight in the DLC because Jacob has twice as many missions in the base game as she does
The Lost Archive Doesn’t Even Look Like Assassins Creed.
Sadly "Dreadful Crimes" was never released for Xbox players, only for PS and PC 😢
I did not expect a Randy Orton comment in my AC video but I enjoyed the reference
yeah, the whole forced romance in the first blade was weird considering the base game was all about choices. Just felt like it was shoehorned in because people complained odyssey had nothing to do with AC
I think the AC2 DLCs would work so much better if they could only be accessed after the main story - you get the more demanding combat of Forli and the less forgiving stealth of Bonfire as 'endgame' tests, capped off by the Ezio final speech, which is a more conclusive end to AC2 as a game by itself
Forli is at least easy enough to just rush it. But Bonfire with all the "don't get detected" while you have 300 enemies and very little ways to kill them silently without all the other enemies being able to see you is just cancer.
Three Assassin's Creed games I would love to see 1 join the Mongolian Empire 2 during Alexander's the great Conquest of Persia 3 set during the peak of the Roman Empire..
I actually liked dawn of ragnorok, and valhalla.
Vidéo Idea : rank Every collecteble in assassin's Creed
My only annoyance with dead kings is the bugged achievements on xbox😭
I just learnt that the last Maharaja is a DLC. I bought the game with all dlc and thought it was just a handful of side missions.
One of my issues with the Wrath of the Druids is it does a disservice to Irish duridism and paganism and just interperets "pagan" as "spooky" and is a very one dimensional understanding of it. Also with the Fate of Atlantis and the Pantheon, I always found it weird there was never mention of Prometheus who, in classical mythology, created humans; as we know, the Isu created humans as a labor force and Prometheus giving them fire could have marked the beginning of their rebellion against the Isu.
Bro you make the best ac vids 👌
Jack the Ripper is my absolute favorite dlc in the franchise so I'd put it 1st, the hidden ones 2nd and dreadful crimes 3rd
The battle of forli dlc will be only remembered for Caterina's "iconic meme" iykyk
Oh and i think you forgot about the Aveline Dlc for Blackflag
Great picks... Fate of Atlantis would be near the bottom for me if it wasn't for the Hades, which is the only part I enjoyed in that slog of a DLC.
Avelines DLC from black flag was definitely my least favourite, I was expecting it to play like Freedom Cry but it’s only 3 linear missions for 5 dollars with no open world whatsoever.
There’s some voiceover work for Connor which was a nice surprise, but otherwise it’s Aveline in the Black Flag engine in a very forgettable story.
Awesome video man. It was a nice watch.
thanks dude!
Last Maharaja is so bad. I played it and the whole time I was questioning what I was doing because, like you said, the only cutscenes are only at the start and end. It could have been so interesting because of his irl friendship with Victoria and how badly he was treated by some people. But nope
As for the AC2 "DLC" I think it's wild no one talks about how Ubisoft had locked two whole sequences behind a pay wall. I remember playing AC2 and feeling like I missed something then playing those two a while later. They literally only exist two show off two famous events and that's it imo.
The lost archive is in the ezio collection
Ngl jack the ripper and the Washington dlc are mad good
Duleep Singh was the last Sikh Ruler
Well.... finally we got it ❤😂
It's a shame they did such a bad job at the Last Maharaja DLC because Duleep Singh is such an interesting (and tragic) historical figure but everything interesting around him just slips under the rug with a bad plotline and bad missions. This could have went somewhere way better.
Syndicate had a hold on me😂
I wonder if we should get games based on Kassandra’s bloodline. Like her descendants who joined either side
Freedom Cry is #1 for me. It's the only one I know of that is a stand-alone dlc. You don't need to own Black Flag to play it. I remember in 2014 when I first got a PS4 I had spent all my money on the console and only had enough to download Freedom Cry for like $10. I played it for so long that by the time I was done I had freed about 5000 slaves LOL.
I was just about to start The Tyranny of King Washington before i decided i wanted to play the Wolfenstein games and i completely forgot about and now its been almost a year since i played AC3 but at least i know its going to be good when i get round to playing it
subject 16 are underrated homie
May be worth taking an in depth look back at Unity and how it has redeemed itself/people should give it another chance in 2024 now that it runs a lot better
Is ”The Hidden Ones” the best AC DLC… because of the high ground reference in the final boss battle?
I like the Lost Archive bcuz of how weird and mysterious it is
You missed the small Aveline DLC for AC4 Black Flag xD, as we all do.
Liberation is a standalone game released for the ps vita
@@TheHiddenOne690there was also one that came out for ac4 Black Flag it was a PlayStation 3 and 4 exclusive
It’s 3 missions long and comprised of aveline unveiling a first civilisation artifact
It costed 4.99 I think

This little dlc is what i was talking about
That time Ubi accidentally made one of the best detective games of all time.
Did you really put ATLANTIS so far from top 1? Damn..
Only AC fans would not like a DLC like that.
if you dont like the fate of Atlantis your def high or drunk
I’ve been waiting for this video! I better see odyssey at the top 🎉
I wonder where you would fit the "Crossover Stories" DLC packs for both AC Odyssey and AC Valhalla? In Odyssey we go to Korfu, and in Valhalla, it's the Isle of Skye. Personally, I much prefer Odyssey's Korfu DLC, but I'm curious where you'd put them in your list. Was your criteria only paid DLC? Well...except you did include the free one from Unity...
I just included the ones I played ngl. I played through korfu but I can't remember anything that happened because I played through it when it first released
@@TheHiddenOne690 understandable; considering how much you had to play through for this video. I’m currently playing bits of Odyssey, Valhalla, AC 3, and the Ezio Collection, and I’m already feeling burnout! 😂
Haha yep. If I didn't do TH-cam, I would never do what I did. So it's a blessing really
can you rank all the pre order missions? and the mission that come with deluxe versions
49:44 Poland mentioned
Hidden one the best
Solid list and understand your opinion of DLCs but I disagree with some of the DLCs you did rank and AC origins hidden one is my number one favorite DLC
"Bolivian spider from Africa" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Tyranny Of King Washington IS The Best DLC IN The Series
Assassin's Creed 3 IS The Best Game OAT
Lol
