Ubisoft has kindly provided me with about 12 minutes of new Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced gameplay
Here are some of the biggest key highlights:
- Ton of footage from a new mission involving recruiting one of the Jackdaw's three new comrades: Lucy Baldwin. This mission appears to be quite in-depth and quite long.
- Crouch, manually toggle hood, hide in shadows and hide HUD with a button press all as new features
- New gear such as swords, pistols, and ship customization items can now be found out in the world in treasure chests, previously most items were simply bought at stores
- 6 hours of new story content including a new Epilogue sequence, written by original writer Darby Mcdevitt
- There are new interior spaces to buildings
- Guards have new dialogue, adding further to immersion
- Interact with animals in new ways such as feeding turtles food
- While hidden blade combat is not in the game, you can still counter kill with the hidden blade and do hidden blade finishers if you don't pull out your sword, however you cannot attack with them.
- Pistol finishers make a return and are fully intact from how they were in the original
- You can now manually choose which shanty you want to listen to, from a new shanties wheel menu
- Menus are akin to the RPG style, with a similar inventory screen but AC4 Resynced is not an RPG. Also the OG menu sounds all return
- Graphics have made a huge leap from the original game in every sense
- Footage also provides a special look at one of the cutscenes involving Blackbeard
- There are new treasure chests to find and new types of treasure chests
- The Mayan side activity is back, with using eagle vision to line up pillars same as in the original
- New Modern Day related messages and data can be found in the open world
Once again, thank you so much to Ubisoft for kindly providing all of this footage!
