An
Assassin’s
Creed:
Black
Flag
remake
has
been
spotted
sailing
the
high
seas
of
a
Ubisoft
game
designer’s
LinkedIn
page,
seemingly
all
but
officially
confirming
that
assassin/pirate
Edward
Kenway
is
returning.
MP1ST
got
the
scoop,
noticing
that
a
Ubisoft
game
designer
had
listed
Assassin’s
Creed:
Black
Flag
Remake
(2024)
on
their
profile.
In
a
crazy
twist,
it’s
the
very
same
developer
who
also
listed
the
Elder
Scrolls
4:
Oblivion
remake.
Somewhat
oddly,
MP1ST
did
not
include
a
screenshot
of
the
Elder
Scrolls
remake
information
when
they
broke
the
story,
but
this
time
they
have
included
a
screenshot
of
the
person’s
page
including
both
Black
Flag
and
Oblivion.
Apparently,
the
developer
has
since
wiped
their
profile.
According
to
MP1ST,
the
page
included
a
few
details
about
the
Black
Flag
remake.
First,
the
game
is
being
rebuilt
on
Ubisoft’s
upgraded
Anvil
Engine.
This
is
actually
the
same
engine
the
Assassin’s
Creed
series
has
used
since
day
1,
but
at
this
point
it
is
heavily
changed.
On
top
of
that,
the
remake
will
allegedly
feature
“new
systems.”
Wildlife
ecosystems
and
combat
were
specifically
referenced.
We
already
knew
Ubisoft
is
working
on
at
least
one
Assassin’s
Creed
remake
as
the
company’s
own
CEO
Yves
Guillemot
outright
confirmed
it
last
year.
“Firstly,
players
can
be
excited
about
some
remakes,
which
will
allow
us
to
revisit
some
of
the
games
we’ve
created
in
the
past
and
modernize
them;
there
are
worlds
in
some
of
our
older
Assassin’s
Creed
games
that
are
still
extremely
rich.”
spouted
the
CEO
in
an
open
letter
addressing
the
company’s
portfolio.
“Secondly,
to
answer
your
question,
there
will
be
plenty
of
experience
variety.
The
goal
is
to
have
Assassin’s
Creed
games
come
out
more
regularly,
but
not
for
it
to
be
the
same
experience
every
year.
There
are
a
lot
of
good
things
to
come,
including
Assassin’s
Creed
Hexe,
which
we’ve
announced,
which
is
going
to
be
a
very
different
game
from
Assassin’s
Creed
Shadows.
We’re
going
to
surprise
people,
I
think”
Insider
Gaming
previously
reported
that
the
Black
Flag
remake
was
scheduled
for
a
November
2025
release,
and
considering
writer
Tom
Henderson
seems
to
have
some
strong
sources
inside
the
company
that
information
was
likely
solid.
However,
they
also
noted
at
the
time
that
Assassin’s
Creed:
Shadows’
delay
may
have
changed
these
plans.
Since
then,
Shadows
has
been
delayed
yet
again,
perhaps
pushing
Black
Flag
even
further
back.
