Last year, dataminers found a mention of the project "Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced" in the files of Assassin's Creed Shadows. It is assumed that this is the AC IV remake that has long been rumored and various insiders have reported.
Recently, Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced was remembered again. Players discovered that a domain with that name was registered in early December 2025.
According to the information found by The Hidden One, this domain may be associated with Ubisoft:
The domain is registered through GANDI SAS, a French registrar that has always been the main one for Ubisoft, and they constantly use it for their franchises, such as Far Cry, Prince of Persia, Assassin’s Creed, Splinter Cell, Just Dance, and so on.
Assassin's Creed fans speculate that Ubisoft may announce the Black Flag remake as early as this month.
