Assassin’s Creed Syndicate First Gameplay
Yesterday Ubisoft showed off it’s next addition to the Assassin’s Creed Franchise, Assassin’s Creed Syndicate. They also give us the release date which is October 23, 2015. The game will be getting a worldwide release and will be available on PS4, Xbox One. As for the PC version, it is listed as “This Fall”. We can only assume that it will be available during the same month or in early November. The Game is being developed by Ubisoft Quebec in collaboration with 8 other Ubisoft studios. The game will take place in a Victorian London setting during the height of the industrial revolution. This means “Trains”, and a few other inventions from that time. You the player, should you choose to buy the game of course, will be put in control of two players; Jacob and Evie Frye, twin Assassins who have been raised to follow the creed. Jacob is listed a a rebellious, hot head leader of an underground gang, while his sister is a master of stealth and control.
The combat of the game looks to be reworked from what we usually expect from an AC game. It’s a fist to Fist combat system that reminds me of the Batman Arkham games. New revised combat system aside, Ubisoft also claims that this will be their larges, most open world AC game to date. However if we’re all being honest with ourselves that’s not what’s most important to us. What most of us are hoping is that this one doesn’t turn out to be riddled with bugs like AC Unity. Whether that will be the case or not will be revealed in October when the game is releases.
