MATH, May 13, 2015
The pre-orders for collector’s editions and bonuses are available now that Ubisoft Quebec has announced their biggest project yet: Assassin’s Creed Syndicate! We will depict in this article what we know so far about the different editions, pre-order bonuses and collectibles available. Assassin’s Creed Syndicate Game Description: “WELCOME TO THE FAMILY - London, 1868. The Industrial Revolution fattens the purses of the privileged while the working class struggles to survive – until an Assassin emerges from the underworld to rally to their defense. Rise to lead the world’s first organized crime family. Conquer the streets of London. Bring the ruling class to their knees. Make history in a visceral adventure unlike any game you’ve played before.” Each version of the game comes with the "Darwin and Dickens Conspiracy" Mission as a preorder bonus. Description of this mission: “Enter the inner sanctums of London’s most influential men. Defend Charles Darwin from those who seek to silence him. And help a friend of author Charles Dickens keep a secret that could get him killed.” The other mission called "Runway Train" is to be available with the Rooks Edition, Charing Cross Edition and the Big Ben Collector’s Case Edition, only available in the EMEA territories for now.
