Ubisoft’s highly anticipated remake, Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced, is making waves ahead of its official reveal, as a new PEGI rating has confirmed the game’s imminent arrival.
This latest development has sparked renewed speculation that a release on the rumored Nintendo Switch 2 may soon be announced—especially given the Assassin’s Creed franchise’s established presence on Nintendo platforms. According to a new listing on the official PEGI website, Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced has received a classification for its inclusion of violence, strong language, and in-game purchases.
While the listing does not yet specify platform details, the timing is notable with major gaming events around the corner, and many fans are watching closely for a potential Nintendo Switch 2 announcement. Originally launched in 2013, Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag introduced players to a swashbuckling adventure on the high seas and quickly became a standout entry in Ubisoft’s long-running series.
The game first appeared on the Wii U and was later made available for the Nintendo Switch via the eShop, further cementing the franchise’s presence on Nintendo hardware.
It is frequently praised for its innovative naval combat and engaging narrative, often being listed among the top Assassin’s Creed titles alongside Assassin’s Creed II. Industry watchers point out that Ubisoft has a track record of supporting Nintendo consoles with major releases, and Assassin’s Creed Shadows’ recent debut only adds fuel to the speculation that Black Flag’s remake could launch on upcoming hardware like the Nintendo Switch 2.
Meanwhile, anticipation continues to grow as The Game Awards approach—an event where Ubisoft is widely expected to make an official announcement about the game. A representative statement from Ubisoft, as highlighted by industry sources, suggests an ongoing commitment to making Assassin’s Creed accessible to a broad audience, though the publisher has yet to reveal formal platform plans for Black Flag Resynced.
"We are dedicated to delivering premium experiences across the platforms our community loves," Ubisoft has previously stated in similar contexts, underscoring their support for multiplatform releases. The PEGI rating also confirms that, like its predecessors, Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced will feature mature content and optional in-game purchases, consistent with modern industry standards. As the Nintendo Switch 2 continues to generate headlines and anticipation across the gaming industry, all eyes are now on Ubisoft for confirmation.
Until then, Assassin’s Creed fans and Nintendo enthusiasts alike can revisit the original Black Flag on the Switch or Wii U, knowing that more adventures may soon set sail on Nintendo’s next-generation hardware.
