Drop your pointy hoods in surprise, fellow assassins, because Ubisoft has announced a surprise patch for Assassin’s Creed Syndicate which boosts the game up to 60fps.
The update, which is available right now, is available on Xbox Series S/X, PS5 and PS5 Pro. On Microsoft’s machines players can expect 4k and 60FPS on the Series X, while the Series S gets 1080p and 60FPS. As for Sony’s hardware, both the PS5 and PS5 Pro get 4k at 60FPS.
Syndicate launched in 2015 for PS4, Xbox One and PC, featuring a brother and sister duo in 1868 London. Generally speaking, Syndicate is typically viewed as being a middling Assassin’s Creed title, although it seems to be climbing up the ladder in recent years.
Exactly why it’s getting a random patch nearly a decade after its release though, is unknown. It seems a tad odd, really, and Ubisoft aren’t shedding any light. It seems unlikely that it has anything to do with the recent delay of Assassin’s Creed Shadow.
