After a leak earlier today, Ubisoft has now confirmed that the second add-on for Assassin's Creed 3, the Battle Hardened DLC, is now available for download for the Xbox 360 and that it's going to arrive soon on the PlayStation 3 and PC.

Assassin's Creed 3 has been a huge success and Ubisoft has some impressive plans to support the game with DLC.

We already saw the first add-on appear last month, in the form of the Hidden Secrets, and now the second content pack, called Battle Hardened, has just been released on the Xbox 360.

PlayStation 3 owners in North America will be able to download the add-on later today, while those in Europe need to wait until tomorrow, January 9.

PC users, however, must wait until next week, as they'll receive the DLC on January 15, according to Joystiq.

The add-on includes three new characters and three new maps, and costs $9.99/€9.99/800 MS Points. Those who got the Assassin's Creed 3 Season Pass, however, get it for free.
