And rise to lead the London underworld in a visceral adventure unlike anything you've played before," the game description states.
The game centers on the adventures of the Frye twins Jacob and Evie. They will both eradicate the ruthless tyranny of the Templars in London by infiltrating the city's criminal underworld with the help of several popular historical figures like Charles Darwin and Charles Dickens.
