The vast majority of PS4 games work great on PS5, but there are a few exceptions. Assassin’s Creed Syndicate is one of those games: it’s playable, but it has some pretty nasty graphical glitches that completely ruin the game experience. Many assumed that Ubisoft had abandoned the title, but with so many classic Assassin’s Creed games coming to PS Plus Extra, a fix might still make sense.
A message from support confirms that the company is aware of the issues and is actively working to fix them.
The team is aware of some visual issues in Assassin’s Creed Syndicate on PS5 and are working to fix them as soon as possible.
