Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced shows that a quality remake is more than a shiny coat of paint, as the modernizations enhance it considerably — but not absolutely

Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced is a great remake of a classic game and does a great job of walking the tightrope between respecting the original source material and introducing new content and modernizing aged features. Cut content is a shame, and the game’s more repetitive elements don’t age well, but there’s a lot to love here for new and returning players. The overhauled combat, beautiful world, and chock-full map truly got the game’s hooks in me — all over again.

Pros

  • +Excellent pirate action-adventure simulator
  • +Characters and cast are better than ever
  • +Wonderfully beautiful realization of the Caribbean
  • +A fantastic version of one of the series’ best games

Cons

  • -Missing and removed modern-day content is a bad move
  • -Repetitive parts or features often hold the game back and keep it ‘aged’
