Description

Set in the turbulent era of the American Revolution, Assassin's Creed III follows Connor Kenway as he fights for freedom and uncovers a secret war between Assassins and Templars.

Set in 1868 London during the Industrial Revolution, Assassin's Creed Syndicate puts players in the shoes of Jacob and Evie Frye, twin assassins with complementary combat styles.
