In anticipation of the official launch of “Assassin’s Creed Syndicate” on PC, Ubisoft featured a launch trailer that showcased gameplay highlights. The game will become available on Nov. 19, 2015.
The footage lasted 1:11 and initially introduced the Frye twins. The high ratings given by respectable game critics were shown onscreen as the music pumped in the background. The main protagonists were shown walking the streets of London in the Industrial Age. As expected, there were a lot of stealth moves and stunts going on, as the characters moved up buildings and beat enemies at various locations. Many classic features like horse-drawn carriages, steaming locomotives, and cobblestone streets were also featured, which will give fans of the franchise a new kind of excitement.
The video description stated, “Assassin’s Creed Syndicate is available on PC November 19. Get ready to build your gang and take control of the London underworld.”
