Summary
The tweet has since been deleted.
Ubisoft has recently hinted at the existence of an update that would bring 60 FPS toAssassin’s Creed Syndicate, quickly deleting the information later. Despite being almost nine years old,Assassin’s Creed Syndicateis a fan-favorite entry in the popular franchise, and many fans would be glad to play it again with an improved framerate.
Assassin’s Creed Syndicatewas released in 2015. Partly due to the era’s fatigue with the series after the poor reception ofAC Unity,Assassin’s Creed Syndicatefailed to be a major hit for Ubisoft, but it still maintained a fairly high popularity. Taking place in London during the Industrial Revolution,Assassin’s Creed Syndicateused dual protagonists, the twins Jacob and Evie Frye, and it’s still hailed as an excellent entry by some fans.
Now, themedia outlet Aroged spottedan intriguing post made and then deleted by Ubisoft Latam on Twitter. In the tweet, which was originally written in Spanish, it’s possible to read: “WhichAssassin’s Creedinstallment have you played the most times? MaybeSyndicatewill be in 1st place with the new update that brings 60FPS.” Right now,AC Syndicateis only playable at 30 FPS on current-gen consoles, and an upgrade could be an important addition to make fans replaythe excellentAssassin’s Creedgame. Unfortunately, the post being deleted could mean that this information is incorrect, so gamers should not take this rumor as an official confirmation that the 60 FPS update will ever be released.
Ubisoft Hints At Potential 60 FPS Update for Assassin’s Creed Syndicate
This would not be the first time that a game in the franchise has received a next-gen update, though. In 2022,Assassin’s Creed Originsreceived an update for PS5 and Xbox Series X/S, for example. The update was similar to what was seemingly proposed forSyndicate, making the game run at 60 FPS on those platforms.
While the update may be good news for old-schoolACfans, most of them will likely be more interested in the upcoming release ofAssassin’s Creed Shadows, which will happen on July 27, 2025. LikeSyndicate,Assassin’s Creed Shadowswill have dual protagonists, the samurai Yasuke and the kunoichi Naoe, which have fairly distinct gameplay. The game’s story will be set in Feudal Japan, a region thatAssassin’s Creedfans have wanted to explore for a long time, and it will focus on the conflicts that mark the end of the Sengoku period, including a fierce civil war that happened at the time.
