Assassin’s Creed Syndicate might be nearly a decade old, but Ubisoft has announced that it is releasing a new update for the game imminently, which is likely to get a fair amount of players diving back into the action-adventure title.
Following the upcoming update, which releases tomorrow, November 19, Assassin’s Creed Syndicate will finally get a 60 FPS boost on current-gen consoles. Additionally, Ubisoft says the game will target a 4K resolution on PS5, PS5 Pro, and Xbox Series X, while on Xbox Series S, it will run at 1080p. That said, the upcoming patch is going to be much larger on Xbox Series X/S than it will be on PS5, weighing in at about 31.8 GB on the former and 0.75 GB on the latter.
Coming out in the immediate aftermath of the widespread backlash against Assassin’s Creed Unity, Assassin’s Creed Syndicate definitely saw muted reception when it launched in 2015, though make no mistake- the action-adventure title ranks as one of the series’ best games. A 60 FPS update is something that many have been hoping for, so this should bring a decent number of players back into the fold.
