Recent evidence has surfaced suggesting that a remake of Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag might be in the works. This data emerged from publicly accessible repositories, adding to the growing speculation about the game’s revival, especially as its 12th anniversary approaches.

Considered one of the top titles in the Assassin’s Creed franchise, Black Flag reportedly gained approval for a remake in the early 2020s. While initial reports concerning this project surfaced in 2023, substantial supporting evidence has accumulated only in the past year.

Further intrigue was added when activity was noted in the game’s Steam repository. Ubisoft has made various updates, including new gameplay trailers that are unusually frequent for a game over a decade old. This kind of activity suggests that there might be more than simple updates going on.

In addition, rumors from sources like PureArts have hinted that significant developments regarding Black Flag’s protagonist may be on the horizon. Confirmations from insiders indicate that Ubisoft initially aimed for a release in late 2025, potentially aligning with announcements at events like Gamescom.
