9 Minutes of Assassin's Creed: Syndicate Gameplay

Ubisoft gives the world a taste of the long list of changes coming with Assassin’s Creed: Syndicate with a huge display of gameplay footage

Today Ubisoft took to the web to announce the next title in their yearly release series Assassin’s Creed. This time set in Victorian England it will be called Assassins’ Creed Syndicate and will introduce massive changes to the series. It will launch players into the height of the Industrial Revolution where the divide between rich and poor has become a chasm. That near modern setting is giving the series a chance to introduce so many changes that Ubisoft has released a nine minute gameplay walthrough to catch us up.

The first changes that will grab gamers attention is the sheer size of the game, Assassin’s Creed: Syndicate will have the largest open world in the series. Offering seven London Burroughs for players to explore which means they are going to need help seeing it all. That’s why Syndicate will allow players to explore the city with vehicles, carriages and trains to be exact. Allowing them to take control in order to quickly weave their way through the busy London streets. Those vehicles also work as place to hide and weapons to run over your enemies with making them a multipurpose tool unlike anything the series has seen before.

They will need those tools in order to conquer the London Burroughs that are controlled by gangs, that surprisingly players will be taking over. In a strange twist players will be building an army against the Templars by taking command of local gangs. Helping to speed up that conquest will be a new tool the rope launcher which will allow players to reach the top of the tallest buildings in an instant. Eliminating a huge amount of tedious climbing, the rope launcher also work as a zip line to quickly cross large distances. Those are only a few of the new tools Syndicate will allow players to toy with opening up a whole new world of possibilities.

Out of everything the nine minute walkthrough shows it all pales in comparison to the other major part of the Assasin’s Creed: Syndicate reveal which is that players will be taking on the role of two assassins. Twins Jacob Frye and Evie Frye to be exact, who were raised together in the Assassin Order now working together to wrestle control of London from the Templars. Players will take control of each character during the course of the campaign using their unique skills in combination with each other to complete missions. Its an unbelievable break from the usual Assassin’s Creed pattern that may just breath some much needed life back into the series.

A change to a modern setting may been all the series needed to make a believable jump forward in its gameplay, either way fans are sure to be excited. Syndicate is set to launch October 23rd on Xbox One, Playstation 4, and will be available some time this Fall for PC. In the meantime we can all enjoy the screenshots of Syndicate below:

ReFantazio Takes a Different Approach to Romance, Setting Itself Apart from the Persona Games

Atlus’ highly anticipated RPG, Metaphor: ReFantazio, appears to incorporate familiar systems reminiscent of the developer’s acclaimed Persona series. The game features turn-based battles that heavily rely on exploiting enemy weaknesses. Additionally, players have the ability to summon warrior spirits during combat. However, the most significant aspect of this game, which will be discussed in this article, is the bonding system. Through this system, players can spend time with important characters and gain deeper insights into their personalities and stories.

In contrast to the Persona games, the bonding system ends at that point. Unfortunately, players will be unable to pursue romantic relationships with their beloved waifus, which may come as a disappointment to those who have developed strong feelings for Hulkenberg, the party’s charismatic red-haired elven knight.

According to Siliconera, the absence of romance came up during a recent question and answer session. Atlus emphasized the continued opportunity to develop meaningful relationships with your allies while also introducing additional narratives through substories. In addition, familiarizing yourself with the supporting characters will grant you access to new archetypes, which serve as the game’s character classes.

In the Persona games, romance is not obligatory; rather, it serves as a means to customize your playthrough. However, it is quite unexpected that Metaphor has chosen not to pursue such a venture, considering the significant amount of discussion it typically generates!

Were you anticipating any romantic elements in Metaphor? If you’re not satisfied with your pre-order, feel free to share your thoughts in the comments section below.

It appears that many

are eagerly anticipating the launch of the highly anticipated PS5 exclusive, Stellar Blade. Shift Up, the developer, has shared a lengthy video showcasing the “secrets” found in the physical box of the game for PS5. From what we can gather, these secrets include a reversible cover/dust jacket and a download code for cosmetic items.

We must clarify that while we do appreciate the variant cover, it may be more appealing than the game’s standard art. However, it is not something we would typically classify as a “secret.”. However, what’s interesting is that Shift Up has confirmed through the comments section that this will be the case in all regions. Additionally, the visually striking action RPG will remain uncensored worldwide.

It’s refreshing to witness a developer going the extra mile for physical collectors, and it’s evident that the developer is determined to leave a favorable mark in the console realm. Stellar Blade is set to make its highly anticipated debut this Friday, April 26th, exclusively on the PS5.
