Overview

  • The expansion is available now on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, macOS, Windows (Steam, Epic, Ubisoft Store) and Amazon Luna, with access included in Ubisoft+.
  • Pre‑order owners receive it at no extra cost, standalone pricing is about $25/€25, and the content unlocks only after completing the main story.
  • The add‑on opens Awaji Island with the Sanzoku Ippa enemy faction, new skills and gear, and roughly ten hours of post‑game missions.
  • A free base‑game quest grants Naoe the Bo staff for all players, while expansion owners can obtain Legendary Bos and additional drops on Awaji.
  • Early reviews cite satisfying story resolution and tougher encounters but characterize the DLC as a conservative, scope‑limited extension of the base game.
