Leaks Suggest Black Flag Remake Will Add RPG Systems, More Pirate Content, and Target March 2026

Anonymous French sources say Black Flag remake shifts to RPG systems and plans for March 2026.

Leaks have surfaced about the Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag remake, detailing a shift toward RPG systems, new island content, and a tentative March 2026 launch; the information comes via anonymous sources speaking to France’s Jeux Vidéo Magazine and follows reports of Ubisoft warning actors for speaking publicly.

Leaked details, given in French to Jeux Vidéo Magazine, indicate developers are applying the newer, RPG-focused design seen in later Assassin’s Creed entries to Black Flag. That includes loot, an inventory, and combat that moves toward a simpler soulslike rhythm rather than the choreographed fights of older entries.

Reports say many modern-day segments may be pared back to make room for additional pirate-era material. The remake is said to reuse cut content from the original, with one example being a storyline centered on Mary Read, and to populate smaller islands with activities that were not present in the 2013 release.

Fans who preferred the series’ earlier mechanical approach point to AC: Unity as an alternative direction the franchise could have taken, while others welcome the promise of bigger, denser worlds.

Sources suggest Ubisoft will use current-generation hardware to remove loading screens and smooth transitions between areas. Separate reporting also covers an instance where an actor reportedly spoke about the project and later said the publisher threatened legal action; that report appears at the actor says Ubisoft threatened to sue him.

One detail from the French coverage ties the remake back to the original AC4 by way of its modern-day framing; some writers noted the original’s present-day scenes made that release stand out, and there is concern that trimming those elements could change the overall narrative balance.

Plans mentioned in the leaks tentatively place a release window around March 2026, which leaves time for an official reveal and further confirmation of these design choices.
