San Diego Comic-Con starts on Thursday, and Ubisoft has announced today that Assassin's Creed Syndicate will be playable for people in the area.

As a part of the Assassin's Creed Syndicate Playtest Road Show, fans can go hands-on with the game on Saturday. Although in conjunction with Ubisoft's presence at Comic-Con, it is not limited to attendees of the convention. Rather, people who wish to play can apply for an appointment to try it out.

If you email your name and age to playtestroadshow@ubisoft.com, along with a 100-word summary of your experience with the Assassin's Creed series, you'll have the opportunity to go try the game. In addition to playing the demo, participants can discuss the game with members of the development team.

This event will take place this Sunday. Spots to play are limited, though, so email soon if you want the best chance to get in.

Ubisoft will also have another iteration of the "Assassin's Creed Experience" at Comic-Con. This Assassin's Creed-themed obstacle course is open to attendees to run through starting Thursday.
