DLC News: Assassin’s Creed 4 DLCs, AC5 Hints; Call of Duty: Ghosts’ Rumoured Dog DLC; Batman: Arkham Origins DLC Details
Assassin's Creed 4's DLC, Blackbeard's Wrath, has finally been given the go sign and is already out for purchase today. This new multiplayer DLC seems to be bearing three multiplayer characters, including Blackbeard, The Orchid, and The Jaguar, and each has a specific weapon of choice.
Softpedia reports that the DLC will come out for the PS3, PS4, Xbox One, Xbox 360, and PC. But that's not all that you can expect from Assassin's Creed 4, as another add0on Freedom Cry, is said to bear new locations to explore as well as more hints on Assassin's Creed 5.
Speaking with Eurogamer, Ubisoft revealed that Freedom Cry will put Adewale on the spotlight, but will still be very much weaved into the main Assassin's Creed 4 game. Though it's an exciting DLC as it will contain Easter Egg-like bonuses as shout outs for the next game, it won't have the Kraken with it.

Call of Duty: Ghosts' DLC will be a dog?
When Call of Duty: Ghosts was being teased months before the game was released on any platform, one of the big changes was the inclusion of a dog, Riley, in the game. Riley fights for you in multiplayer mode.
Some weeks after gamers have enjoyed the game, the newest leak revolves around how the next DLC for Call of Duty: Ghosts will still involve Riley. Or better yet, a changed Riley, transforming him from the military guard dog to a wilder beast, a Wolf.
