Yet another cool Assassin’s Creed Easter egg was spotted during last week’s hands-on preview sessions, in that you can play as a descendant of Jacob Frye.
Perhaps the most interesting concept in Watch Dogs Legion is that every single character in its world is playable – including a descendant of Assassin’s Creed’s Jacob Frye.
For those unacquainted with Jacob Frye, he was one of the two protagonists of Assassin’s Creed Syndicate, alongside his older twin, Evie. A Master Assassin of the British Brotherhood, Jacob was active during the Victorian era in London.
Watch Dogs Legion transpires almost two centuries after Syndicate, but also takes place in London – that’s why it makes sense for the game to indulge one of Ubisoft’s other biggest series, introducing an innocuous but nonetheless present joint world.
