Assassin's Creed Syndicate, the newest action-adventure video game from Ubisoft's long running Assassin's Creed series, has received PC specifications.
Assassin's Creed Syndicate was released for PS4 and Xbox One on 23 October, but its PC version release is scheduled for 19 November.
Assassin's Creed Syndicate is the ninth major game in the series and this one deals with the Victorian era London, set during the Industrial Revolution of 1868. The game will follow the story of Jacob and Evie Frye, who fight the established order that is controlled by the Templars.
This is an open world game that allows third-person exploration and surprisingly does not have any multiplayer game play.
Meanwhile, Assassin's Creed fans are eagerly awaiting the release of Assassin's Creed movie, "Assassin's Creed: The Movie" that will star Michael Fassbender. The direction is being helmed by Justin Kurzel of "The Turning" fame. The movie is expected to be released on 21 December, 2016.
