''"Jacob and Evie Frye are Assassins born in 1847 and brought up in the Brotherhood, they go to London in 1868 to wrestle the city out of the Templars' industrial iron grip." ''I think this is the first Assassin we've played as who was born into the a Brotherhood in which their name has nothing to do with birds.

"Evie is the business mind behind their gang, The Rooks, and knows what it will take to keep other enemy groups from seizing their hard-won territory. She's easily the more down-to-earth and subtle of the two." i hope they don't use this as an excuse to have less gameplay with her, or give her all the medicore ones and let Jacob have all the fun ones.

"Darwin will act as a recurring character that the twins can interact with in the open world. In addition, according to the source, he will be a regular giver of quests, probably like Leonardo da Vinci in Assassin's Creed 2 or Benjamin Franklin in Assassin's Creed 3. We can also expect to see Dickens in the last years of his life, after the publication of all his most famous works and right at the start of the 'farewell' book tour he conducted before his death in 1870." It seems that we'll be seeing a lot of the Charlie Ds. We'll probably be seeing more of Darwin than Dickens, and I just wonder how much of a role Charles Darwin will have in the Assassin's Vs Templar storyline.

"London will be divided into six huge boroughs: Westminster, the Strand, the City of London, Whitechapel, Southwark, Lambeth, with the overall map 30% bigger than Unity’s Paris." Hopefully the enviroment is just as good as Paris in Unity. Because if there is one thing Unity got right is that it was stunnigly beautiful. The Strand and Whitechapel are not boroughs in London!
