Assassin’s Creed: Syndicate Review For Xbox One #Ubisoft 

Assassin’s Creed: Syndicate is the most incredible installment in the franchise yet. Featuring two playable protagonists, an interesting story, and unrivaled gameplay, this game is a must-have for fans of the series. Within the first hour of playing the game, I found myself infiltrating and sneaking my way through buildings, fighting enemies, and even getting into a brawl on top of a train. Syndicate features extremely tense and heart-pounding action sequences. A great new gameplay addition to the series is the Rope Launcher, which offers a new way to travel around the massive world that Ubisoft has created. The game’s world is very impressive. With many buildings to enter and people flooding the streets, Syndicate has the best scenery the series has seen so far. London is the perfect location for an Assassin’s Creed game, with its iconic locations and unique environments. It is very entertaining to explore the sprawling open world, and see all that is has to offer. Another great new gameplay addition is the ability to ride in a horse-in-carriage as you travel around London. This provides for new unique missions, and intense chases. It offers another way to travel through London’s streets, and sometimes offers a faster form of transportation for players.Syndicate has also improved the series’ freerunning system, making one button dedicated to ascending and the other dedicated to descending. This gives players more control over where they want to travel in the environment. The latest installment in the franchise also improves combat, and makes it even more cinematic than it was before. With new finishing moves, and a reworked hand-to-hand combat system, it has never felt better to get in an all-out brawl in an Assassin’s Creed title.

Overall, the game is spectacular, and one of my favorites in the series. The two protagonists have great chemistry, the enemy AI has been upgraded, the stealth is incredible as always, and the combat has never been better. Assassin’s Creed: Syndicate is the perfect Assassin’s Creed game, and I cannot wait to see what Ubisoft does with the series next! Check out Assassin’s Creed: Syndicate here.
