Assassin's Creed Origins: The Hidden Ones Reviews
The Hidden Ones DLC continues where it left off and it's mostly more of the same, which is excellent if you loved Assassin's Creed Origins. We would have liked to see more variety and more beauty in the region, but it's still a must play for the fans.

This dlc is a part of the game it should have been implemented in the base game. The plot is too short and irrelevant for the creed's story, but end necessary point for Bayek and Aya.

The Hidden Ones might just be the most important piece of Assassin’s Creed DLC to date.
The Hidden Ones carries on the excellent standards from the main game and provides a thought-provoking story with an excellent selection of side missions.
The Hidden Ones adds hours of gameplay to this expansive title and is one of the best add-ons to an Assassin’s Creed game.
Assassin's Creed Origins: The Hidden Ones it the ultimate example of "more of the same." Honestly, the core gameplay is as good as the full game and, in places, it's even better, with some real highlights. However, with a disappointing new zone design, a lacklustre main story, and nothing new or bold to set it apart, it just feels like filler and occasionally dull, which is a real shame considering how Ubisoft's track record with original and memorable DLC has been.
If you have the base game already, the price for The Hidden Ones DLC won't be too much for you. With this in mind, I can also tell you that there is more than enough content in the DLC. There is a new map called Sinai and it has 4 regions waiting for you. Also, there are new weapons, costumes, and mounts which are cool for real. If you already completed the main game and want more content, then don't even think, just get it. You definitely won't regret it.

Since I started this when I was the highest level, the DLC seemed to be rather easy and quick. I enjoyed playing and exploring Sinai, but sadly what with the glitches of Bayek being eaten by a mountain, I will have to give the score lower than I expected
Is it just more Assassin’s Creed: Origins? Well yes, it is, but I’m completely okay with it. Considering the expansion is $10, I don’t see any reason for a fan of Origins to skip out on this.
(Please, Ubisoft, can we have some more?).
The Hidden Ones is an absolutely valid and valuable DLC, which allows us to dive back and reappear a title that continues to amaze us.

The Hidden Ones is just more Assassin's Creed Origins. Considering how good the base game was, that's not a bad thing. It also helps that there's actually a substantial amount of content here.
Assassin's Creed Origins: The Hidden Ones doesn't change much, which isn't a bad thing considering how good the main game is. It makes small improvements while keeping the same formula, while telling a meaningful story set in a new land as beautiful as ever. Anyone who enjoyed Origins is bound to enjoy The Hidden Ones.
The Hidden Ones doubles down on everything that made Assassin's Creed Origins an excellent experience, providing an expansion that you will love if you enjoyed the base game.
"The Hidden Ones" is just more of the same, but with occasional technical problems. And here I was, expecting innovative mechanics and bold experiments…

Assassin's Creed Origins first DLC offers nothing new to anyone who finished the main game : with its artifical difficulty and its mandatory levelling, The Hidden Ones only takes advantage of its magnificent background to please the eye, even if you may encounter more bugs in a few hours of gameplay than the entire series itself.

The Hidden Ones brings lots of fresh new challenges that might have become scarce for veteran players in the main game.
Assassin's Creed Origins: The Hidden Ones does not offer anything fundamentally new. This is another episode for those who like last year's release. If you finished Origins already and want to continue the game, you can safely buy this DLC.

Assassin's Creed Origins: The Hidden Ones is a rock solid expansion to a great game. It doesn't try to surprise or break the mould, but that's fine when the core gameplay remains this strong. For fans of Origins this is a no-brainer -- the story successfully builds upon the existing narrative, and there are some really enjoyable missions to sink your hidden blade into.
A more than satisfactory expansion that takes us to Sinai to give us much more content and even improve somewhat the story arc of the creation of the Brotherhood of the Assassins with respect to the base game.
