It might be a remaster of Assassin’s Creed Black Flag or maybe the multiplayer game that fans have been waiting for. Ubisoft could be getting ready to make an announcement soon.
The latest game in the Assassin’s Creed series called Assassin’s Creed Shadows has already become a big success for Ubisoft. It’s an open-world game with a huge map and lots of content and it has quickly turned into one of the best-selling games of the year. This success is a big win for Ubisoft which has had a tough time recently with some of its other releases. But now it looks like even more exciting news might be on the way for Assassin’s Creed fans.
According to a well-known dataminer there may be a brand-new Assassin’s Creed game reveal happening very soon. This could either be an official announcement or even a surprise launch. The dataminer believes they’ve found evidence pointing to an entirely new Assassin’s Creed experience and no it’s not the recently announced Claws of Awaji DLC for Shadows. That content is already confirmed and coming soon but what they’re talking about is something completely different.
Based on what they’ve uncovered the dataminer thinks it could be one of two major possibilities. The first is the long-rumored remake of Assassin’s Creed Black Flag which is one of the most loved games in the series especially for fans who enjoyed its pirate theme ocean exploration and naval battles. The second possibility is the upcoming multiplayer-focused spinoff which has been codenamed Assassin’s Creed Invictus. This project is expected to be something very different from the usual single-player style of the series focusing more on online gameplay.
At the same time Assassin’s Creed Shadows is still getting new updates too. This week’s update added a New Game Plus mode which lets players replay the story with all their progress and it also raised the level cap giving fans even more reason to keep playing. But now there may be even more excitement building because of the possible reveal of this new game.
Speaking personally Assassin’s Creed Black Flag is one of my all-time favorite games in the series. While there may be a few other titles that are better in terms of story or gameplay I still remember Black Flag the most fondly because of the way it changed the direction of the franchise. It offered a fresh open-world experience with pirate ships sea shanties and tropical islands and it made a huge impact when it launched.
Now after many months of rumors leaks and speculation it finally looks like Ubisoft might be getting ready to officially announce a remake or remaster of Black Flag or reveal the new multiplayer game. Either way, Assassin’s Creed fans have a lot to be excited about and the next big announcement could be just around the corner.
There’s a well-known dataminer who goes by the name PlayStation Game Size and they’ve built a strong reputation over the years for discovering new games updates and secret listings by digging through the backend of the PlayStation Network. They often find product codes and files before anything is officially announced. Today they’ve shared something new and interesting that has caught the attention of Assassin’s Creed fans around the world. In a post on the social platform X (formerly Twitter) they said they’ve found a brand-new product code that seems to be linked to the Assassin’s Creed franchise.
However they were quick to clear up a few things. They said that this new code has nothing to do with the upcoming update for Assassin’s Creed Shadows and it’s also not connected to the Claws of Awaji DLC. On top of that they ruled out the possibility of this being related to more distant future titles like Assassin’s Creed Hexe or Assassin’s Creed Jade. Because of this many fans and leakers believe the most likely explanation is that this could be the long-rumored remaster of Assassin’s Creed IV Black Flag. Although Ubisoft hasn’t officially confirmed it there have been several small hints and rumors over the past months that a Black Flag remaster is coming and possibly very soon.
Interestingly when PlayStation Game Size responded to curious fans in the comments of their post they added another possible theory. They said that the mystery product could actually be related to Assassin’s Creed Invictus. That’s a multiplayer-focused Assassin’s Creed game that Ubisoft officially announced a long time ago but since then there’s been very little news about it. According to previous leaks Invictus is supposed to be an arcade-style round-based multiplayer game that includes several different game modes. Well-known Ubisoft insider Tom Henderson has even claimed that Invictus might launch sometime this year which adds to the excitement and speculation.
Of course with any datamine or leak like this it’s important to stay cautious. Even though PlayStation Game Size has been reliable in the past and usually doesn’t make claims without strong evidence nothing is 100% confirmed until Ubisoft says it themselves. Still if what they found really does point to a new Assassin’s Creed reveal whether it’s Black Flag Remastered Invictus or even a completely new surprise title then fans might not have to wait much longer for some exciting news.
