Rumor: More Assassin\'s Creed Black Flag Remake Details Leak Online

Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag Remake Details Emerge

Recent online reports suggest a remake of Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag is in development, leveraging the Anvil engine. This highly anticipated remake, while unconfirmed by Ubisoft, is rumored to feature significant enhancements.

The critically acclaimed Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag, renowned for its pirate setting, stunning Caribbean open world, and blend of stealth and action, remains a fan favorite. Nearly twelve years after its initial release, a modern remake utilizing current hardware capabilities is highly sought after.

While previous reports hinted at a 2024 release, subsequently delayed due to Assassin's Creed Mirage's postponement, new details have surfaced. A report by MP1st, citing an unnamed developer's website, indicates the remake will utilize the Anvil engine and include revamped combat mechanics and enhanced wildlife ecosystems. Specific details remain scarce, but the scope of the project appears more extensive than initially anticipated.

Beyond Black Flag: Oblivion Remake Rumors Persist

MP1st's report also revealed information about a rumored Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion remake. This purported remake is said to boast improved combat, incorporating a Soulslike-inspired blocking system, and enhancements to stamina, stealth, and archery mechanics. While hopes for an announcement at the January 23rd Xbox Developer Direct were unfulfilled, the remake's development remains a possibility.

Timing Remains Uncertain

The release timelines for both the Black Flag and Oblivion remakes remain undisclosed. Ubisoft's current focus is on Assassin's Creed Mirage, recently delayed to March 2025, and its planned post-launch expansions. Speculation points towards a potential Black Flag remake launch in 2026, but this is purely conjecture based on leaks and rumors. Until official confirmation from Ubisoft, fans should approach these reports with caution.
