Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced has surfaced in a new listing on the European ratings board PEGI, intensifying longstanding rumors regarding a remake of Ubisoft's acclaimed Assassin's Creed IV Black Flag.
This development amplifies anticipation among the series' fanbase as industry attention converges around possible reveals at The Game Awards. The entry, identified earlier today on PEGI’s official website, points to a project titled 'Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced.' While the listing does not specify hardware platforms, recent trends suggest Ubisoft could be targeting all current generation systems—including PlayStation, Xbox, PC, and potentially the Nintendo Switch—consistent with the series’ historical multi-platform releases.
As of this writing, Ubisoft has not yet released an official statement about the project’s scope or launch timeline. First released in 2013, Assassin's Creed IV Black Flag is celebrated for its innovative take on open-world piracy and continues to hold a strong presence within Ubisoft’s storied franchise.
Rumors of a remake have persisted since Kotaku first reported on the possibility over two years ago, citing inside sources suggesting development was underway.
In the years since, sporadic reports and industry whispers have kept speculation alive, although Ubisoft consistently declined to confirm or deny such projects in public forums. A notable development occurred recently when the voice actor behind Black Flag's main protagonist alluded to a remake during a convention appearance.
Following this comment, the actor was pressured by Ubisoft to retract the statement, further fueling fan theories that a substantial project could be in the works.
This sequence of events, cited by multiple professional outlets, has led many to believe an announcement is not only imminent but also carefully orchestrated for a major industry event. While the PEGI listing does not serve as definitive confirmation, it offers the most concrete evidence to date of 'Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced' being a genuine Ubisoft initiative.
The timing is particularly notable as The Game Awards—known for high-profile reveals and major game announcements—are scheduled to take place this week.
Industry watchers now see this as the most likely venue for an official unveiling. Ubisoft has recently continued to expand its global development footprint, announcing Vantage Studios in partnership with Tencent, with a focus on major franchises such as Assassin’s Creed, Rainbow Six, and Far Cry.
This expansion underscores Ubisoft’s commitment to evolving its core series for new audiences and hardware platforms. As further details emerge, gamers and industry professionals alike are closely monitoring for any new information regarding Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced.
