London is the city controlled by the Frye twins in Assassin’s Creed Syndicate.
Jacob and Evie Frye travel from Crawley to London in 1868, during the Industrial Revolution. They oppose the Templar Grand Master Crawford Starrick and build the Rooks, a street gang that helps challenge Starrick’s influence over the city. The siblings work together while also pursuing different priorities: Jacob focuses on direct action and gang leadership, while Evie investigates artifacts and the First Civilization.
The game recreates Victorian London through districts such as Whitechapel, Lambeth, Southwark, the City of London, and Westminster. Its missions involve factories, railways, criminal networks, and famous historical figures including Charles Darwin and Charles Dickens. The setting is therefore broader than a single landmark or neighborhood.
Assassin’s Creed Syndicate was released in 2015. Its London is a fictionalized game space based on real geography, and the plot combines documented Victorian personalities with fictional Assassins, Templars, and gang conflicts.
