Assassin’s Creed Syndicate launches for PC in November

Assassin’s Creed Syndicate will launch for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on October 23, but the PC version won’t launch until November 19, Ubisoft announced.

In a Ubisoft blog post, Sam Kovalev, studio production manager at Ubisoft Kiev, explains the PC version’s delay.

“We have introduced several new improvements to our production pipeline and validation process, which allowed us to focus on polishing, stabilizing and optimizing the PC version very early on in the project,” says Kovalev. “This has been one of the top priorities for the production team this year.

“But even with these new processes in place and everything running on schedule, the team still wants to let Assassin’s Creed Syndicate cook for a little while longer before releasing it on PC, so as to give players the optimal experience. “The additional four weeks are for us to really bear down and finalize all of the polish and optimization, to make sure the game and all of its systems are stable when it launches, so it runs smoothly for all players starting on day one.”
