Ubisoft's post-launch DLC for Immortals Fenyx Rising is gradually rolling out. After the first story expansion, A New God, launched back in January, we'd been waiting on Myths Of The Eastern Realm to follow.
Rumours had previously suggested a February release date, but Ubisoft has confirmed it'll launch on March 25th. Unlike the first expansion, Myths Of The Eastern Realm features a brand new protagonist called Ku, taking inspiration from Chinese mythology.
Speaking via its official website, Ubisoft also revealed players can access a "special primer quest" from today at no cost. Calling "We Are Not Alone", they issued this statement on what to expect:
Led by Ubisoft Chengdu, Immortals Fenyx Rising - Myths of the Eastern Realm introduces a new open world, characters, and story inspired by Chinese mythology, and centering on a new hero named Ku. Immortals Fenyx Rising players can get an early, free taste of the DLC with a special primer quest, titled We Are Not Alone, which is available in-game starting today as part of a free update.
Appearing at the southern end of the Valley of Eternal Spring, the new quest offers a stamina-testing platforming challenge in the clouds, with an appropriately themed prize for players who complete it. Like the primer quest for Immortals Fenyx Rising - A New God DLC, playing or completing We Are Not Alone isn’t required to jump into this new DLC.
Much like its predecessor, Myths Of The Eastern Realm will cost £11.99 alone, and you can buy a Season Pass covering all three DLC episodes for £32.99. If you're still on the fence about Immortals, a demo remains available on the Switch eShop.

Nice that they got a chinese development team to make the chinese myths pack! Also, Ubi Chengdu made Scott Pilgrim the game so we're in good hands!
I enjoyed this but main game was enough for me.
This game was much better than I expected after reading the reviews. Yeah, it is not BOTW, but it is still a great game. Ubisoft could have easily overlooked a Switch version here. Thank the gods they did not
@Patendo I agree. I enjoyed my time with it a lot. But I am also done. Maybe in a few years, since I got the gold edition with the DLC included anyway.
Nice. This is the only pack I really care about.
This DLC is supposed to take place in a brand new world as well. It sounds like a high effort update. I'm looking forward to it!
I wish Earth would have 100 hour days. My backlog is too big and I haven't tried this game yet but I really want to. I blame sleep and how I fall asleep even when I tell myself not to because my backlog is too big. Hmph.
I'm expecting a lot of skin swaps with the main game, but we'll see! The original game was fun but fizzled out a bit for me due to repetitive content.
I'm just waiting for the inevitable definitive edition that has all of this stuff included.
Nowadays, there's less and less reason to buy games at launch and my backlog is massive...
This is a really good game. I am still playing it but a free expansion is great.
This is one of my favorite games of the past 2 years. The BotW addiction loop is in full swing, but the light hearted comedy nature really makes it enjoyable. Objectively it's not the most amazing game of the past 5 years, but in sheer fun to play, it is one of the top.
I'm really really hoping this game sold well enough to warrant a sequel or two. It would easily be an instabuy. This DLC sounds pretty significant, if not on play time or content variety, on assets for a mere DLC.
@Kalmaro it also goes on sale all the time. I bought it in January for about 30€ (just the base game). Together with the season pass I bought after finishing the game I have paid barely more than full price.
@countzero That sounds good, I'll give it just a little more time before I pick it up.
Will get back to this after Hades; I love the flying/falling with style mechanic.
I just started this, just got the bow and arrow and like it so far. Not spectacular yet but very solid and a good port to boot.
Is this game worth getting. After rebranding, changing the art style, etc I kinda lost interest. Reviews seem so mixed as well with some saying its great while others seem to call it a personality-less mess of systems
I liked the main game but it was so huge that I feel no desire to play the DLCs
Its ok but got repetitive quickly and I really wish I had bought it for another console, its really blurry on switch and gave me headaches.
I will probably pick the gold edition when I see it cheap in an Xbox or PlayStation sale.
I picked up this game and really enjoyed it. Kind of a mix of Zelda and Assassin's Creed. Great writing as well. Probably won't get the DLC, as I have other games I want to play.
I absolutely love this game. Been playing it everyday since I bought it about a week before Christmas. BotW may very well be the "better" game, but I actually like this more. Wasn't too crazy about the first DLC though, so hopefully the next one blows me away.
