Assassin's Creed Syndicate Guide The Essentials
Game Structure and Progression
Progressing in Assassin’s Creed Syndicate isn’t just limited to the story. There are a wide array of different activities that advance your levels as well as change the world around you.
Viewpoints and Maps
Press Touchpad / Back Button to access the Map.
The Map is an excellent tool to plan activities and explore your surroundings. To unfog the map, reach a Viewpoint and synchronize. While in the map, the different icons show you the available activities in London. Use Left Stick to select an icon and view detailed information and the available interactions.
Cycle through the icon filters with L1 / LT and R1 / RT and cycle through sub-filters using dpad left and dpad right.
Story Memories
Story Memories take you through the lives of twin Assassins Jacob and Evie Frye as they build a gang of Rooks to take down the Blighters, overthrow the Templars, and save the people of London.
Story memories appear as a Gold Icon on your map.
Conquest Activities
In each borough, there are four Conquest Activities that must be completed in order to unlock the final Gang War activity to conquer that borough. Some Conquest Activities are only unlocked after speaking to Associates, so remember to seek them out via their Icons on the map.
The first four Conquest Activities in the Borough can be completed in any order.

Michael Reuge’s Vault
Music boxes are hidden throughout London. Be observant and follow the clues in the Secrets of London section of the Progression Log that lead to each box. They can be used in a secret vault located underneath a dig site in the City of London borough.
Collecting all of the music boxes grants access to the Precursor armor.
