Which Assassin’s Creed game is set mainly in Victorian London?

Assassin’s Creed Syndicate is set mainly in Victorian London.

The game takes place in London in 1868, during the Industrial Revolution. Players follow twin Assassins Jacob and Evie Frye as they challenge Templar control over the city. The setting includes districts such as Westminster, the City of London, Southwark, Lambeth, and Whitechapel, each reflecting different aspects of the expanding metropolis.

Syndicate’s London combines historical figures with fictional characters. Queen Victoria, Charles Dickens, Charles Darwin, Alexander Graham Bell, and Florence Nightingale appear in the campaign or associated missions. Industrial factories, railway lines, crowded streets, and the River Thames shape both the visual identity and gameplay.

The game is distinct from Assassin’s Creed Unity, which is set mainly in Paris during the French Revolution. It also differs from Rogue, whose Atlantic and North American settings follow Shay Cormac. Syndicate’s defining historical period is the later 19th-century British capital.
