Winston Churchill

Learn how to unlock Winston Churchill as an associate in Assassin's Creed Syndicate, including his loyalty rewards and associate activities like Spy Hunt and Spy Hideout.

Alright, so you want to get Winston Churchill on your side in Assassin's Creed Syndicate? He's a pretty cool associate to have, and you'll unlock him after finishing a specific World War I memory called ‘The Darkest Hour’. You'll find the portal for this memory on the eastern side of the Thames River. It pops up during Memory Sequence 05, so keep an eye out for it then.

Once you've wrapped up that mission, you'll need to head over to the Tower Bridge. Look for the ‘W’ marker specifically in the northern tower. Go there, and a short cut-scene will play, officially unlocking Churchill as an associate. Easy peasy!

As you build up your loyalty with him, you'll snag some neat rewards. At Level 01 Loyalty, you'll get the Reaper Belt. Then, at Level 02 Loyalty, you'll unlock the Runic Mayan Cane-Sword. Definitely worth the effort!

Now, let's talk about what he actually does for you. Churchill offers a few types of associate activities:

• Spy Hunt: Think of these like Henry Green's Templar Hunts. Your job is to find a specific target hidden within a restricted zone and take them out. You can earn extra XP and money if you manage to kill them in a particular way, which changes depending on the area. Completing these is crucial if you're aiming for 100% completion in the WWI simulation.
• Spy Hideout: These missions usually involve sneaking into a restricted area to steal three pieces of enemy intelligence from designated targets. There are often optional objectives too, which can net you more XP and cash if you manage to pull them off. Like the Spy Hunts, these are also key for hitting that 100% mark in the WWI simulation.
• Master Spy Hunt: This is the big one, unlocked only after you've completed all the regular Spy Hunts and Spy Hideouts. For this final activity, you'll be tasked with hunting down and eliminating the Master Spy in WWI London. It's the ultimate test of your spy skills!
