    In The Tyranny of King Washington: The Betrayal, Assassin's Creed 3's Ratonhnhaké:ton can turn into an eagle. This follows his previous invisibility cloak ability. Just saying, super-human feats are what make people stand out in a crowd, not sneak quietly through it with arm-blades.

    The downloadable content offered as part of the Assassin's Creed 3 "Season Pass" includes "The Tyranny of King Washington," a single-player campaign presented in three episodic downloads. As the title may suggest, this DLC goes into "an alternate history of the events following the American Revolution," which shouldn't be too jarring after the game's alternate history of the Revolution itself, in which every important event was secretly kicked off by a guy in a hoodie.The Season Pass will cost $30, and will also offer multiplayer DLC that isn't as explicitly about killing a power-mad George Washington. The Season Pass offer applies to PC, PS3, and Xbox 360, but all the DLC will be available on Wii U separately.
