I am not doubting you or anything, but have you tried it?

 

Ubisoft came in after and said that list was inaccurate, but then Syndicate does have minor issues on PS5. I am not sure what to believe.

Yer I gave assassin creed China ago you can still play it  but the textures pop in a lot in the background you can easily ignore it but certain parts like the explosion in suquence 6 I believe it is was very noticeable

Thanks for your input. It sounds manageable if a little annoying. Regardless, playing it on PS5 with the issues sounds easier than hooking my PS4 up again. 

 

EDIT: I just want to edit my post and say that I played the whole collection on PS5 and didn't have any issues until the end of the ninth level in AC Russia. It kept crashing at the scene where you have to run down a hall to turn a valve. I just had to change my strategy and that somehow avoided it. Perfectly playable otherwise.
