VIDEO See Evie Frye stalk in Assassins Creed Syndicate

The new playable character of Evie Frye in Assassin's Creed Syndicate has unique abilities - see them in this video walkthrough

Assassin's Creed Syndicate will have plenty of new features as we've seen in every new entry in the long-running series but one new element has rightly been getting a lot of attention. For the first time in the series you'll be able to play as a female character in the single player part of the game. In this case, its Evie Frye, twin sister of Jacob Frye and an accomplished assassin in her own right.

Reports suggest you'll be able to switch to either player instantly while wandering around the open world but you'll have to choose one to use for specific story missions. That means you'll get different interactions and unique cut scenes for each character, which sounds like a great addition to the series.
