Assassin’s Creed Syndicate Review Overview Syndicate is not the most beloved entry in the series, but it has real charm. London looks and feels great, traversal is fast once the rope launcher clicks, and the twin-protagonist structure adds personality. Combat and some loop design are pretty basic, and it can feel less “Assassin Creed-y” because of the gang focus, yet it is still a fun, different spin that I would recommend. What It Is Set in 1868 during the Industrial Revolution, you play as twins Jacob and Evie Frye. The goal is to loosen Templar grip on London, building your gang The Rooks, and reclaiming districts through assassinations, takeovers, and story arcs tied to historical figures. World Victorian London is the star. Districts feel distinct, streets are busy, landmarks are climbable, and the art team sells the period really well. You also get a moving train hideout that circles the map, plus a short optional World War I rift later on. Ubisoft’s world building really lands here. Movement and Tools Parkour up and down from Unity returns, then the rope launcher changes everything. You can zip straight up facades or cast a line between rooftops to cross wide streets, which keeps flow high in a city with big avenues. Horse-drawn carriages are drivable and useful for quick escapes. Combat and Stealth Fist-forward brawling with simple timing. Weapons include cane-sword, kukri, and brass knuckles. It works, but it is pretty bare bones and can get repetitive. Stealth fares better: throwing knives, smoke, hallucinogenic darts, multi-target assassinations, and clear enemy vision cones make sneaking the more interesting path. Mission Design and Structure Black Box style assassinations give you multiple ways in, while district activities fill the map: gang strongholds, bounty hunts, child-labor liberations, Templar hunts, and collectibles. Taking territory to shift control to The Rooks is the loop, and it fits the setting even if it pushes the Creed angle into the background. Characters Jacob is cheeky chaos, Evie is precise and methodical. You can swap between them in free roam, and certain missions are character-locked. They are likable and carry scenes well, even if they do not evolve much across the story. Supporting cast is solid, and the “historical guest star” moments are fun. What Works [*] Lively, good-looking London with strong landmark density [*] Rope launcher makes urban traversal fast and satisfying [*] Stealth toolkit is the better half of the design [*] Twin leads with different vibes keep the tone light [*] Train hideout and territory system add identity What Falls Short [*] Brawling is basic and gets samey in longer sessions [*] Gang takeover loop can feel like checklist clearing [*] Story ties to the Creed feel thin compared to older entries Verdict Thumbs up. Not a classic, but a genuinely fun, stylish London adventure. If you want a beautiful city to free-run through, snappy stealth, and a different flavor for the series, Syndicate delivers. If you want deep combat or a heavy Creed focus, temper expectations.

**Buyer Beware** Don't waste your money on this game if you don't want to spend the time troubleshooting it. My main issue was getting passed the title screen when it says "Press any key", The game would immediately hang then crash- or crash upon pressing any key. The solution for this is to edit the AC.ini file and set the refresh rate to 60. 2nd option is to limit the frame rate in your graphic panel. 3rd option, which worked for me, is to use Nvidia Profile Inspector to limite the frame rate. Okay, now I got that out of the way, the game play is very fun. the story is meh. Evie is attractive.

If you liked the classic Assassin's Creed formula, this was the last gasp of that era. London is well crafted, gritty, and exciting to explore - in typical AC fashion. The writing is just okay which is about all you can expect as the writers contort themselves through their ever more convoluted universe to make another franchise entry. The Abstergo story line is effectively abandoned in favor of focusing on the historical Assassin's - but even these two aren't particularly compelling. Game play wise, the game divides itself in two with one protagonist focused on stealth, the other focused on combat. Perhaps inspired by the success of GTA V's multiple protagonists, AC Syndicate gives them very distinctly different missions. While fun, the combination of missions and narratives still fails to live up to the Ezio trilogy. Functionally, the game is better than older AC games. You should not run into issues with frames being too high or other similar issues. Controllers are natively supported as well.
