This game was part of the Director's Cut version. But in order to access it you need to play until chapter 2 of the game which is around 20 hours. So I think it was great for me to get through the game for the first rather than play it again. If you want to see my review of the game you can check my previous review but as for this game there are a couple things that I want to touch on 

In this game, Jin found that there are a group of Mongols that are camp on Iki island that are dangerous than the normal Mongols since they have the ability to make the other Mongols go crazy. Jin has to go there and stop them but when he arrived he found out that his clan was the cause for the island demise. So this game is more about redemption for the other inhabitants of the island. Other than that he needs to face the fact that he has to work through his demons of the death of his father. It makes this game a more personal experince 

The island is 1/5 smaller than the main game. You can finish the game in around 5 hours with another 4 hours if you want to complete it. Gameplay is the same as before. There are two different things is that now your horse has an attack where he will ram people. Other than that combat has been more strategic where you need to attack the shaman first before attacking the rest of the mongols since the shaman gives them a boost in strengh. There are also a new move witht he grappling hook which I like. There is also a travelsal stage with using the hook which is also great. Oh and there are cats you can pet.

Overall the DLC did what it was supposed to do. It tells a story that helps complete the whole package of Jin. The gameplay is the same so there nothing to special about that and it ends at the right time. Overall this has been a great experince of the original game and as well as the DLC. But it is more or less the same so I will give this game an S-Rank as well
