London‎,‎ 1868‎.‎ The Industrial Revolution unleashes an incredible age of invention‎,‎ transforming the lives of millions with technologies once thought impossible‎.‎ Opportunities created during this time period have people rushing to London to engage in this new world‎.‎ A world no longer controlled by kings‎,‎ emperors‎,‎ politicians or religion‎,‎ but by a new common denominator‎:‎ money‎.‎

However‎,‎ not everyone is able to enjoy the benefits of this boom‎.‎ Despite fueling the engine of the British Empire‎,‎ workers‎'‎ lives are little more than legalized slavery while the top few percent profit from their labor‎.‎ Living poor and dying young‎,‎ the lower class unite together in protest as a new kind of family ‎- gangs ‎- who turn to a life in the underworld in their struggle to survive‎.‎ A struggle‎,‎ until watchful Assassins come to their side and re‎-ignite an age‎-old conflict involving London‎'‎s leaders that will echo throughout modern history from the underground‎,‎ up‎.‎

Introducing Assassin Jacob Frye‎,‎ who with the help of his twin sister Evie‎,‎ will change the fate of millions in the upcoming Assassin‎'‎s Creed® Syndicate‎.‎ Rise to rally and lead the underworld to break the corrupt stranglehold on London in a visceral adventure filled with action‎,‎ intrigue and brutal combat‎.‎
