Strike at Ubisoft Coincides with Rumors of Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag Remaster
This week, 1, 200 Ubisoft employees have gone on strike, voicing their concerns over what they describe as a “major reset“within the company. Amidst this significant labor action, buzz surrounding a much-anticipated remaster of Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag has intensified, with new evidence surfacing online.
New Art Book Listing Sparks Excitement
Recently, an IGN report brought attention to a listing on Amazon UK. The platform is now offering pre-orders for an art book dedicated to the remastered version of Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag, notably scheduled for release on March 24, 2026.
Validity of the Art Book Listing
Several factors lend credibility to this listing. First, Titan Books, a well-known publisher, has previously collaborated with Ubisoft to produce various Assassin’s Creed art books, further supporting the authenticity of this new project. The art book is currently priced at £39.99 RRP, but it is available for pre-order at a discounted price of £29.95.
Aligning Release Dates and Rumors
If this listing is accurate, the art book’s release date corresponds with previous rumors regarding the anticipated remaster. Additionally, earlier reports hinted at a reveal of the remaster occurring soon, although not during tonight’s State of Play event.
Title Confusion: Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced
Interestingly, a PEGI rating from December 2025 mentioned the remaster under the title Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced. Should the art book be genuine, this title may merely be a placeholder or an error in the listing process.
The Industry’s Worst-Kept Secret
For years, rumors about this remaster or remake have been circulating, marking it as one of the worst-kept secrets in the gaming community. Despite the growing anticipation, Ubisoft has not provided any official confirmation, even threatening actors associated with the franchise over suggestions of a potential remaster.
Looking Ahead
As speculation mounts, fans remain hopeful for an official announcement soon, allowing them to focus on verified updates instead of ongoing speculation about the franchise’s future.
