The trailer introduces us to the seven henchmen of Crawford Starrick, who protagonists Jacob an Evie will presumably have to assassinate.

Judging by the trailer, Assassin's Creed: Syndicate may take itself slightly less seriously than some of the other recent Assassin's Creed games. There's quite a bit of banter between the two leads, and the bad guys seem to have been given quite a bit of exaggerated character.

If you prefer to base your purchasing decisions on gameplay footage, we've got some here and here.

Assassin’s Creed Syndicate releases on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on October 23, and on PC November 19.
