Its Black Friday sale ends on November 29th, but Ubisoft has something special for PC players. From now until December 6th, 5 AM PST, they can claim Assassin’s Creed Syndicate for free. It’s only for the PC version, and the Ubisoft Connect app is required to play it.
Available since 2015 for Xbox One, PS4 and PC, the sequel follows the Frye twins, Jacob and Evie, as they venture to London in 1868 during the Second Industrial Revolution. As Assassins, they establish a presence in the underworld and fight back against the Templars.
Along with new combat mechanics, it’s the first game in the series to feature two protagonists that players can switch between. There are also new traversal methods like the grappling hook and carriages, and Jacob can lead his gang into fights with rival outfits to establish dominance.
Though initial sales were low due to the poor reception to Assassin’s Creed Unity in 2014, Assassin’s Creed Syndicate garnered positive reviews and sold over 5.5 million units as of November 2017. Check out our review for more details.
