As a fellow London native, I've been genuinely excited about seeing what Assassin's Creed: Syndicate has done with the city I hear their reproductions are very historically accurate, and it will be neat to see if I can navigate the town with my pre-existing knowledge of the center. It turns out that the vision of London[...]

His grammy nominated work for Journey speaks for itself, and the work he has put into other smaller titles has been beautiful. Interestingly he is going to be taking on a mega franchise this year though, composing the score for Assassin's Creed: Syndicate Seeing how he takes on such a large franchise will be fascinating. To catch[...]

I'm particularly interested Assassin's Creed: Syndicate for one reason (well, besides quite liking Assassin's Creed): It's taking place in my backyard Seeing how Ubisoft translate the city I live in into digital form is going to be fascinating to explore. It seems, they really are making it a beautiful recreation too You can see that in[...]

Assassin's Creed #1 goes on sale October[...]

This week we got our first look at how Michael Fassbender will appear in the Assassin's Creed movie One of the cool things, I think, is that the movie isn't a retelling of any of the old titles, but instead is a totally new narrative, that exists in the same universe as the games. On that[...]

From Assassin's Creed: Unity, to Watch Dogs and more, the publisher has just had a hard time pleasing fans on the platform. That is why I find the news that Assassin's Creed: Syndicate is going to be a month late on PC a good thing Announced on the Ubiblog, Studio Production Manager at Ubisoft Kiev Sam Kovalev explained[...]

Assassin's Creed is only eight years old, but it feels like it has been with us forever That is probably due to the sheer number of games we've had in all that time. In fact, it can be hard to remember which game innovated what and what came in at what point That is where this[...]

Assassin's Creed sure does love crowbarring in famous historical figures into the series It almost never feels completely natural, but hey, why not use the time period to its fullest while you can. With that in mind, here is a trailer for the Charles Darwin and Charles Dickens pre-order DLC for Assassin's Creed: Syndicate It a[...]

One of the very best things about Assassin's Creed Unity last year were the more open assassination missions These let you plan and approach an assassination target more dynamically, leading to a lot of freedom of choice. These appear to be in Assassin's Creed Syndicate as "Black Box missions" These let you take advantage of several openings[...]

I'm actually a fairly big fan of Assassin's Creed Bigger than I should be anyways I enjoy getting down with the game each year for the 15 or so hours it takes to complete each title. I played Syndicate at E3 too, and I dug what I saw From all the promotional material that I've seen[...]

Assassin's Creed: Syndicate is going to take the franchise into the 'modern era' with Victorian London acting as the setting of this year's offering I've played the game and I enjoyed it a fair bit, but I like Assassin's Creed This is more of that. To give you an idea of what to expect, take a[...]

biopic) and veteran comic artist Pop Mahn have teamed up for this Assassin's Creed The Syndicate short film The story takes place in 1860's London during the Industrial Revolution Its a time of a growing gap between the rich and the poor Bare-knuckle brawling, harlots, hooligans and Jacob Frye. The film made its debut at the[...]

Assassin's Creed seems to have taken the controversy of not having any female assassin's in Unity last year and have made Evie Frye a playable protagonist. Sony revealed this trailer with her in just causing havoc against bad dudes Seriously, she is crazily lethal Some of these are pretty brutal I'm kind of love it. Take a[...]

Assassin's Creed: Syndicate is going to take fans of the series to my oen stomping grounds of London, you know, just in the Victorian times. A new trailer hit during Ubisoft's E3 press conference, which was only a cinematic (which means I expect to see gameplay at Sony), but it was the most delightfully English thing[...]

This week, it was just me and Laura as we talked about the importance of archiving video games for future generations, the announcement of Assassin's Creed Syndicate,[...]

Assassin's Creed plays with the past a whole lot, often bringing in historical figures and jimmying them into the story of the assassin for one reason or another. Assassin's Creed: Sycndicate is going to be no different Ubisoft have already announced that Charles Dickens And Charles Darwin will both be in the game However, they may[...]

The guy is a fan favorite in both the MMA and Sports Entertainment worlds. And it looks like he might be in Assassin's Creed: Syndicate As pointed out by Kotaku, one of the scenes in the reveal from yesterday showed a fighting pit and one of the participants sported the exact same tattoos as Lesnar[...]

Well, here we go again. Assassin's Creed is coming back around for its yearly release, and as we knew already, the game is set in Victorian London 1868 specifically The game is now confirmed with the pre-reported name change from Victory to Assassin's Creed: Syndicate. Ubisoft have confirmed that Jacob Frye is the main Assassin and that he's on[...]

I made note the other day that Kotaku had heard that the title previously known as Assassin's Creed: Victory was now called Assassin's Creed: Syndicate. That now looks all but confirmed thanks to a report from Polygon who say they have attained marketing material for the title In a blurb given, the material claims that the game[...]

We've known about Assassin's Creed: Victory since the end of last year thanks to a leak, that Ubisoft later confirmed It's going to be set in Victorian London and feature fighting a top of carriages. We now know that we're going to find out a bunch more about the game, this time officially, thanks to a[...]

I'm genuinely interested in seeing what comes of Assassin's Creed: Chronicles The game exists on a 2.5D space, and as similar stealth games like Mark of the Ninja have shown, it can be a super successful formula. It can also be a boring mess. Well, we only have until tomorrow to wait to see if the game[...]

There have been long asked for Assassin's Creed time periods Since the series debuted, it seems Egypt, World War II and Feudal Japan have been the most asked for time periods That is to name a few, but they are the ones I have seen the most desired. Well, Ubisoft have announced three new Assassin's Creed[...]

After that, Assassin's Creed: Black Flag and Army of Two: The Devil's Cartel will see out the month. That is a lot of game for free The highlight is easily Black Flag though, which may be the best game in the Assassin's Creed franchise Make sure you pick that one up. A new month approaches which[...]

The 'Leap of Faith' in Assassin's Creed is ludicrous An assassin jumping from a huge height into a measly clump of hay is just one of those things we accept about the series because it's a video game We afford that excuse a few times to every game. That didn't stop a sect of students from[...]

I'm actually a huge fan of Assassin's Creed's modern era sections I thought the meta-game developer potions that Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag explored were a really neat idea I find the present day framing adds a crutial back bone to the series. Sadly, that whole concept was largely thrown to the wind in Assassin's Creed[...]

The Assassin's Creed movie is really starting to shape up quite well I think things are looking quite promising for the production and it could finally buck the trend of awful video game movie adaptions. Michael Fassbender's involvement has been well publicized for a while now, but the cast has now grown adding an important second[...]

Assassin's Creed is one of the most bankable franchises in video games, with Ubisoft selling million of copies of each iteration year in, year out. That doesn't look to be stopping anytime soon either During an investor call (via Eurogamer), Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot announced that Assassin's Creed Unity and Assassin's Creed Rogue shipped 10 million units[...]
