You can grab Assassin’s Creed Syndicate for free on PC right now

The Assassin's Creed games have changed a lot over the years, moving from smaller open-world action games to massive RPGs with map sizes to match. The last ‘classic' game in the series, Assassin's Creed Syndicate, didn't get a great reception at launch due to franchise fatigue but if you now find yourself yearning for a return to the series' old formula, then you can now grab the game for free on PC. 

Assassin's Creed Syndicate was set in 1800s London, starring twin assassins Jacob and Evie Frye in a pursuit to stop the templars. There's a nice mix of historical events with Ubisoft's tried and true fictional twists. Personally, it is one of my favourites of the older titles in the series, but I am a tad biased being British myself. With modern PC hardware and plenty of patches, the game runs much better now than it did at launch.

From no until the 6th of December, Assassin's Creed Syndicate is free to claim on Ubisoft Connect, so you can do it through the app or via the web. Once you've claimed it, the game will be yours to keep forever, so you can jump in whenever you please. If it turns out that you hate the story or setting, well at least you didn't lose any money trying it out, just a bit of bandwidth and storage space.

KitGuru Games: Corporate nonsense has put Helldivers 2 in jeopardy as game removed from over 170 countries

It tends to take a lot for gamers to 'forgive' a studio after messing up a launch, for instance CD Projekt Red had to spend three additional years developing Cyberpunk 2077 before many were willing to give the game another shot. In the case of Helldivers 2, despite the game having some rough server issues at launch, the game turned out to be so good that many players simply waited things out, without leaving a trail of negative reviews. Now, a case of incredibly poor communication and a poorly thought-out plan from the game's publisher, Sony, has put Helldivers 2 in jeopardy, with the game being removed from over 170 countries.
