Assassin’s Creed Black Flag remake could be in the works at Skull & Bones developer

Assassin’s Creed Black Flag is one of Ubisoft’s crowning achievements and now the likely upcoming title from Ubisoft Singapore in the form of a remake—something fans have been hoping to see for quite some time.

Rumors of an Assassin’s Creed Black Flag remake have been floating around since June 2023, when Kotaku first reported on plans for the title. It appeared then that the remake was set in stone. However, information was largely scarce, but that appears to have changed as a Jan. 19 report from PCGamesN has found numerous mentions of an unannounced Assassin’s Creed project that seemingly began development in Sept. 2023. The mentions come from none other than the Skull and Bones developer Ubisoft Singapore, and it seems the studio has had more than development hell on its hands regarding the spiritual successor to Black Flag‘s naval combat.
