Ubisoft took the stage next for Sony’s Tokyo Game Show press conference, revealing a new DLC add-on for the upcoming Assassin’s Creed Syndicate. After the game is released, players can look forward to all-new content starring Jack the Ripper.
The Jack The Ripper add-on content is available separately for Assassin’s Creed Syndicate players, or as part of the Season Pass, which includes:
- Jack The Ripper campaign
- The Last Maharaja mission pack: Discover ten brand-new missions set within London, and join Duleep Singh to reclaim his birthright as the Maharaja. In his quest to reclaim his heritage, he will take on the Templars and test his friendship with the queen.
- A Long Night exclusive mission: Help Jacob track down an endangered fellow gang member and bring him back to the hideout in a fast-paced, wild, and dangerous ride.
- Streets of London gameplay pack: Gain access to over one hour of extra gameplay via new missions, and obtain additional weapons, gear, and outfits.
- Two top-tier sets of gear and weapons: Give your arsenal a steam-powered twist with the Steampunk Pack, and immerse yourself in the most famous novels of the Victorian era with the Victorian Legends Pack. Both sets include state-of-the art gear and weapons, as well as a new outfit.
Season pass holders will also be granted an exclusive permanent XP boost.
It’s not known whether Jack is an Assassin or a Templar, but one thing is for sure. This looks to be a major tonal shift from Assassin’s Creed campaigns to this point, with the player evidently controlling a character that’s distinctly not a good dude.
Assassin’s Creed Syndicate will be available worldwide for PlayStation®4 computer entertainment system and Xbox One on 23rd October, and will be available for Windows PC on 19th November.
