Ubisoft has announced that Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced will launch worldwide on July 9, 2026. The game will be available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Windows PC through the Ubisoft Store, Steam, the Epic Games Store, and Ubisoft+.
Led by Ubisoft Singapore, Black Flag Resynced is a full remake of Assassin’s Creed IV Black Flag, originally released in 2013. The remake has been rebuilt from the ground up using the latest version of Ubisoft’s Anvil engine.
A Rebuilt Version of Black Flag
Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced returns players to the Golden Age of Piracy as Edward Kenway, a pirate captain pulled into the conflict between Assassins and Templars. As Edward chases fortune and power across the Caribbean, he crosses paths with figures like Blackbeard, Anne Bonny, and Calico Jack.
Ubisoft says the remake will feature updated visuals and expanded gameplay systems, including parry-driven combat, improved stealth and parkour, deeper naval mechanics, and new narrative content.
Woodkid Returns to Assassin’s Creed
During the Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced Showcase, Ubisoft also confirmed that GRAMMY-nominated artist Woodkid is returning to the franchise. He is collaborating on a reimagined track, with more details set to be shared later this year.
Editions and Pre-Order Bonuses
The standard edition will be priced at $59.99 across PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. Ubisoft also announced Standard, Deluxe, and Collector’s Editions.
Players who pre-order will receive Blackbeard’s Crimson Pack, which includes an exclusive Edward Kenway costume, a pair of swords, and a set of pistols. The Deluxe Edition adds the Master Assassin Character Pack and Master Assassin Naval Pack, while the Collector’s Edition includes the Deluxe content plus physical items such as an Edward figurine, a wearable metal brooch, a SteelBook, and a cloth map.
