An Assassin’s Creed Black Flag remake has long been rumored, with recent news out of the rumor mill
indicating an April launch for what will apparently be called Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced. More recently, it has been revealed by a game description scraped from the Indonesian Game Ratings System
scraped by IGRSDB that Black Flag Resynced will also include new characters and stories compared to the new game. The game will also have an 18+ rating in Indonesia, and it also lists PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series platforms, suggesting Ubisoft will stick with its previous day-one cross-platform launch strategy. Curiously, there is no mention of the Nintendo Switch 2, but given the launch of AC: Shadows on Nintendo’s handheld, it seems reasonable to assume it will launch there as well.
The full game description reads:
This title breathes new life into a fan favourite while remaining carefully faithful to the spirit of the original. It follows the story of charismatic pirate and Assassin Edward Kenway as he adventures through 18th Century Caribbean with parkours in cities, and battles at seas, in search of fortune and glory. Modernized in 2026, the new game includes a cast of new characters and stories.
