In an exciting announcement, Ubisoft has unveiled its ambitious plans to breathe new life into one of its most beloved titles, Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag. The summer showcase was a testament to Ubisoft’s unwavering commitment to the Assassin’s Creed franchise.
However, according to an exclusive report by Kotaku, the company’s dedication may run even more profound than anticipated. With the remake of Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag underway, Ubisoft is poised to take fans on another unforgettable journey through the golden age of piracy.
Although the project is still developing, details surrounding the remake are scarce, leaving eager fans yearning for more information. However, Kotaku’s insider sources reveal that Ubisoft Singapore, a renowned branch responsible for contributing to nearly every mainline Assassin’s Creed installment, spearheads the endeavor.[1]
Notably, Ubisoft Singapore played a pivotal role in developing naval combat mechanics in Assassin’s Creed III and IV, showcasing their expertise in creating captivating seafaring experiences.
