Community Influencer and Ubisoft Creator Agent Oleksandr Samoilenko reported that the Steam version of Assassin’s Creed Syndicate is no longer limited to Russian localization for the Ukrainian region.
Samoilenko announced this in a post on X (Twitter). According to him, this was an initiative of the Ukrainian studios of Ubisoft.
«We have unlocked the full localization of Assassin’s Creed Syndicate for the Ukrainian Region on Steam! Now, when launching through the Steam client, no one will force you to play in Russian. This is an initiative from Ubisoft Ukraine, I am grateful to everyone who was involved», the influencer noted.
Previously, Ukrainian players have repeatedly complained that in some, both older and relatively recent, Ubisoft games for the Ukrainian region, there is no option to select the English language, since the game is available only in Russian. According to players, this problem exists in the first part of The Division, Assassin’s Creed: Unity, Assassin’s Creed: Syndicate, Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla, Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Wildlands, as well as Far Cry 3 and Far Cry 4.
Currently, the Assassin’s Creed Syndicate page on Steam still has a warning that the game does not support the Ukrainian language and is only available in Russian. According to Oleksandr Samoilenko, the Russian warning should disappear from the Steam page by the end of the month.
