Whereas Ryan is probably going conscious of the continuing hypothesis round a Black Flag remaster, might his involvement in it lengthen past seeing his prior work re-released? Stories have instructed Ubisoft is engaged on a considerable re-working of Black Flag — does that imply Ryan himself is concerned, re-recordling dialogue, or contributing to new story components?
A number of stories charting the sport’s growth have surfaced over the previous couple of years, with the Black Flag remake allegedly being labored on by Cranium and Bones studio Ubisoft Singapore (keep in mind that Cranium and Bones itself began life as a Black Flag spin-off), with work underway to supply one thing finally extra substantial than only a easy remaster. Stories have instructed that this new model of Black Flag will boast all the visible constancy discovered within the current Murderer’s Creed Shadows, in addition to expanded wildlife and fight techniques.
With no all-new Murderer’s Creed sport set for the tip of this yr, followers imagine the Black Flag remake can be nicely positioned to reach in time for the vacations. Here is hoping Ryan is not made to stroll the plank for dropping this newest trace, and it is not too lengthy earlier than Ubisoft makes the remake official.
