    In coming across the DLC through the season pass, I personally enjoyed the storyline and new implementations. Within the DLC itself, it had added the use of fear bombs and spikes to Evie Frye's inventory for use in the fight against Jack the Ripper and his associates. Not only did they add new tools, they had also included 2 new associates with the addition of Federick Abberline.

Although the missions had been short, it had been an eventful one.
    Some people may ask though is it worth $20 AUD
    In my opinion I would say that's reasonable. However in purchasing the season pass you are able to access The Last Maharaja missions for when it comes out for $40 AUD with the addition of the Steampunk pack for Jacob and the Victorian Legends pack for Evie, by which adds two outfits and new weapons (approximately Level 7).    … Expand

    "Jack The Ripper" is a remarkable DLC, providing a gripping continuation to the Assassin's Creed: Syndicate story. Initially, I had reservations about the "fear" mechanic and how Evie employs it, but as the DLC progressed, I grew to appreciate and embrace its significance.

Initially, I had reservations about the "fear" mechanic and how Evie employs it, but as the DLC progressed, I grew to appreciate and embrace its significance.

    The gameplay remains exceptional, but with a darker undertone owing to the story and the introduction of the "fear" feature. However, I found it peculiar that Evie starts the DLC without all her gear, weapons, and skills unlocked from the base game. While it makes sense to reset the weapons and gear, I would have preferred if the skills remained consistent. Furthermore, there seemed to be an excess of activities and collectibles for the length of the DLC story, and I also amassed a surplus of money with little to spend it on.

    Despite these minor flaws, "Jack The Ripper" captivated me. The story is engrossing, and the ambiance and style diverge into a darker territory, distinct from what we experienced in Assassin's Creed: Syndicate. It was a pleasure to see Evie as the main character, as she exudes strength and charisma, making her a superior protagonist compared to her brother.

    In conclusion, "Jack The Ripper" is an outstanding DLC that seamlessly extends the Assassin's Creed: Syndicate narrative. The addition of the "fear" mechanic adds depth to the gameplay, while the darker tone of the story and setting creates a refreshing and engaging experience. The DLC excels in delivering a compelling story with a formidable main character in Evie. If you are a fan of Syndicate, this DLC is a must-play for its immersive and thrilling gameplay.    … Expand
