Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced recently leaked yet again via an official artwork on the Ubisoft Connect PC launcher after being an open secret for months. The game is set to launch on July 9, and select members of the press have already been given a detailed preview of the remake.

According to a new report, those involved in this event have been left largely impressed by Ubisoft’s work on revamping Assassin’s Creed 4.

Why it matters: Assassin’s Creed 4 Black Flag remains one of Ubisoft’s finest open-world titles several years later, and for those who enjoy pirate themes and the Caribbean setting, there is nothing else really like it.

According to Tom Henderson, the media embargo for Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced lifts on April 23. The insider expects Ubisoft to share official details and the first trailer for the remake on the same day the embargo lifts.

He also reiterates that the project is a remake and not a remaster. Ubisoft is employing its latest engine for the title, and according to the insider, those at the media preview event have been left quite impressed by the visual presentation.

Tom Henderson also seems to have positive things to say about the visuals after watching this behind-closed-doors presentation himself.

I’ve seen the presentation. The game looks really good.

Elsewhere, the insider mentioned that Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced will likely skip last-gen consoles like the PS4 and Xbox One. Ubisoft took the first step toward its shift away from these consoles with Assassin’s Creed Shadows, and it appears the publisher has no plans to go back.

Nonetheless, with the official reveal expected to arrive on April 23, all these details and more should be confirmed very soon by Ubisoft itself.
