The new "Assassin's Creed Syndicate" video game transports you to 1860s London, journeying through the deadly rivalry between the Assassins and the Templars, according to CNN.

Game developer Ubisoft lets people role play as either the deadly smart Evie Frye or her confrontational twin brother Jacob, Yahoo! News reported. The lethal Frye twins have the power to assemble gangs to oust The Templars, their arch-nemesis assassins ruling London. 

The historically accurate game is set in Victorian London in 1868 during the Industrial Revolution, CNN noted.

Marc-Alexis Côté, the creative director for "Assassin's Creed Syndicate," said the city itself is integral to the game experience, noted CNN.

"It is the heart of the game," Côté said. "The most important part of 'Assassin's Creed' is the minute you step in London, it is the first thing our characters say to each other, because they come from the countryside. They are just amazed by this new world."

"Our London is a character, representing both the fantastic lives lived by the wealthy and the dreadful suffering among the poor," Côté added.

Ubisoft consulted with historian and author Judith Flanders to make sure the Victorian Era details were accurate, according to the Associated Press. Flanders, who wrote "The Victorian City" and "The Invention of Murder," helped recreate the daily life details of 1868.

"I worked a great deal on the vocabulary," Flanders said. "I found several ways you could say '(expletive) off' in the 19th century."

"What was amazing seeing those clips (from the game) was seeing all the stuff that I'd read but obviously never seen because I'm not 140 years old. And thinking, yes, of course, that's what it looks like," Flanders said. "Stuff that I hadn't thought of. It was stuff the designers though of, and they got right."

Other things the game writers didn't get so right were the names of public houses. Flanders guided the writers on historically accurate pub names that met Ubisoft's legal department's guidelines that no real-world pub names could be used, according to the AP. 

"If you've ever been to London, you know there are 9 million pubs named the Crown and Anchor or the Princess Charlotte or whatever," said Flanders. "They ended up generating this list of pub names that didn't match any real pub names at all. I had a little historian hissy fit. I told them they're stupid and unbearable. They sound like wine bars from the 1990s." Flanders researched authentic sounding pub names Ubisoft could use, such as the Cauldron or the Duke of York.

In the pubs, players can interact with historical figures like Charles Dickens, Alexander Graham Bell and Charles Darwin, noted Yahoo! News.

Players can also parkour over almost anything in the London world and have access to a wide range of historically apt weapons, Yahoo! News reported.

Jean-Vincent Roy, in-house historian for Ubisoft said the game teaches players about the history of Victorian England.

"The game is super fun and a very cool way to discover the period," Roy said. "If by ... having a blast running and driving and touring around London at that time, anyone who picks a book and wants to learn more about the period, from my own perspective as a historian, it is a win."

"Assassin's Dreed Syndicate" was released on Friday, Oct. 23 on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 video game consoles. It was priced at $60, noted Yahoo News. On Nov. 19 the game will come to PCs.
