According to sources who spoke to Kotaku, Ubisoft is reportedly working on a remake of Assassin’s Creed 4 Black Flag, although the project is said to be in its early stages. The remake is believed to be handled by the team at Ubisoft Singapore, the studio that worked on the original game’s naval mechanics.
Not much information is currently available regarding the remake, including details about potential improvements or changes to the game’s mechanics. Ubisoft has not provided an official comment on the speculation.
This decision by Ubisoft is intriguing, particularly because the company is also preparing to release another pirate-themed game called Skull and Bones. Although Skull and Bones has experienced delays, it is expected to launch in the next few years. The success and reception of Skull and Bones may influence Ubisoft’s decision to proceed with the Assassin’s Creed 4 Black Flag remake.
In other Assassin’s Creed news, Assassin’s Creed Mirage has been confirmed and is intended to bring the series back to its roots with classic traversal and a visual style reminiscent of the first Assassin’s Creed game. Benjamin Fox, the animation director for Assassin’s Creed Mirage, discussed the challenges of returning to the iconic visuals and refining the gameplay mechanics.
The Assassin’s Creed series has a diverse range of games, each offering unique features and settings. Black Flag is often regarded as one of the best entries in the franchise, known for its engaging story, intriguing protagonist, and naval gameplay. Fans will have to wait for official announcements to learn more about the potential remake of Assassin’s Creed 4 Black Flag.
