Ubisoft has announced that the release of the highly anticipated expansion pack "Curse of the Pharaohs" for the popular action, historical title "Assassin's Creed Origins" has been delayed a week from its original debut outing.

The last DLC update to the acclaimed adventure game was initially scheduled for a release next week on March 6, however, the game publisher pushed the release back by a week to March 13.

Although Ubisoft delayed the update drop, it compensated the aggrieved fans by sharing a preview of the new DLC pack, which features new gameplay, action sequences, and extra juicy details.

The trailer also shows new lands to explore such as Thebes, the Karnak, the temples, and the Valley of the Kings past the Nile river.

In the new expansion pack, Bayek discovers a relic that ultimately leads him to locate the tomb of dead Pharaohs awoken by grave robbers stealing various artifacts inside their tombs. Bayek will be handed the task of retrieving these stolen items to halt the murderous undeads' killing spree.
