Assuming those of you reading this review have already hopped, skipped and stabbed your way through Assassin’s Creed II, I ask you this: do you remember when Animus techie Rebecca Crane desynchronised Desmond Miles from Ezio in chapter 11, explaining the Animus data had become corrupt, before throwing you into chapter 14 sporting some fashionable face fuzz? What became of chapters 12 and 13?

Truth is these two 'corrupted memory sequences' were actually omitted from the final game by Ubisoft in order to meet the November 20th launch deadline. Conveniently, it made good business sense to release these missing segments later under the category of ‘DLC’. That’s right; Battle of Forli is missing chapter 12 of Ezio’s adventure which, as you might expect, slots seamlessly into the established narrative and throws in a few interesting twists for good measure. But is the content worth the florins?
