As a creed fan.this is a lot better than I expected.really enjoing this so far

We could not get this to load no matter how many times we contacted the company that made it.

Victorian London is the star of the show here, and although some old gameplay problems linger, it hasn't been this much fun to wield the hidden blade in years.

Victorian London is an incredible open-world to explore; Evie and Jacobs relationship and script makes them the best Creed characters for years; The level of oh Ill just do this first makes London a complete distraction-fest; Carriages and the rope launcher add some welcome chaos to proceedings

For all of its new content; the traditional mission styles can feel stale

Charles Dickens has asked me to investigate a figure from Victorian folklore, Spring-heeled Jack. The ‘orrible bastard (that's Jack, not Chuck) is terrorising the population, leaping from buildings and threatening them with his clawed, clammy hands and staring from the darkness with eyes like...

Jacob & Evie are one of the most charismatic characters in the entire series; London is wonderfully recreated; Sublime soundtrack; The map is less cluttered then last year's instalment

Still suffers from some odd glitches

Normally a second review of a game isn't needed, and the extra copy just gets a short little article about how the PC got a bad port or how those graphics are just so much better than on console.

Beautiful locations | Lovely music

Lacklustre ending | character development only at beginning and end of game

For the first time, the roof-scrambling, hidden blade-wielding series is tackling Victorian London with Assassin's Creed Syndicate. We'd argue that its a Victorian London more reminiscent of Guy Richie's Sherlock Holmes movies rather than one of Dickens, Oscar Wilde and George Bernard Shaw.

Atmospheric London setting; Two protagonists and styles of action; Impressive visuals; Improved controls and combat

Gangland activities grow repetitive; Systems becoming over-convoluted; Stale elements remain stale

Assassin's Creed Unity was a total mess. A plethora of bugs, performance woes and lacklustre features had me wondering whether this once thrilling franchise had devolved to become a cynical cash in. Ubisoft could and should have done much better.
