Ubisoft has a dedicated team working on post-launch DLC for Assassin’s Creed III, which will be purchasable via a season pass, if a letter addressed to GameStop is authentic.

In the letter—forwarded to Kotaku—the Assassin’s Creed team’s DLC plans for the game are detailed, and a planned season pass is also mentioned. “What’s next? We are currently in the process of creating a complementary development team that will begin working on post-launch episodic content to continue the Game of the Year experience that Assassin’s Creed III will undoubtedly deliver,” reads the letter.

“We know you’re familiar with the ‘Season Pass’ concept and, beginning shortly, we’ll start to take pre-orders of our very own.”

The letter is addressed to GameStop and thanks the retailer for its support reaching pre-order goals for Assassin’s Creed III. We have no idea whether the letter is legit or not, however you can check it out for yourself via the source link below.
