Ubisoft recently unveiled the contents of the soon-to-be released season pass for the upcoming "Assassin's Creed Syndicate," and it will include one of London's infamous serial killers. 

The game developer announced that the Jack the Ripper campaign, together with other contents, will be part of the game's season pass. Based on the announcement, the upcoming campaign is set 20 years after the events in the main game. The two protagonists in this title, twins Jacob and Evie Frye, will join forces with Scotland Yard to track down Jack the Ripper for killing several women back in 1888. 

Aside from the Jack the Ripper campaign, the season pass will also include The Last Maharaja mission pack, which will bring 10 new missions where Duleep Singh tries to reclaim his birthright as the Maharaja. It will also have the Long Night exclusive mission, where Jacob needs assistance in searching for a fellow gang member who has been deeply wounded and in bringing him to the hideout in the fastest way possible. 

There is also the Streets of London gameplay pack, which will offer exclusive access to more than an hour of extra gameplay with the new missions. It will also allow players to obtain additional weapons, gears, and outfits.

Also, the two top-tier sets of gear and weapons will be introduced in the season pass. It will provide an arsenal for the players, with a steam-powered twist that comes with the Steampunk Pack. Players can also infiltrate the world of the most famous novels of the Victorian era with the Victorian Legends Pack. 

The announcement also stated that all season pass holders will get an exclusive permanent XP boost. 

The "Assassin's Creed Syndicate" season pass will be released alongside the game that will come out on the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One consoles beginning Oct. 23, while the PC lovers can play the game beginning Nov. 19.
