Assassin's Creed Syndicate Gold Edition returns you to London in 1868, a city where the Industrial Revolution has widened the gulf between the wealthy and the desperate. As Jacob Frye, a reckless young Assassin, you take up the cause of those the age has left behind, freeing children from factory servitude and stripping valuable cargo from enemy boats to remind the city that justice still has teeth.
To pry the capital away from Templar control, this action-adventure lets you seize command of London's underworld. You reinforce your stronghold, recruit rival gang members, and grow an army capable of taking the streets back for the people. The revamped combat is fast and savage, letting players string together multi-kills and countermoves against swarms of enemies.
Your arsenal invites experimentation: use the Rope Launcher to stay hidden and finish foes with the Hidden Blade, or trade stealth for the kukri and brass knuckles when a fight turns direct. The era's transport shapes every pursuit, from carriage chases through crowded lanes to rooftop battles atop high-speed trains. It's a rich, systemic open world that plays beautifully on PC.
