Ubisoft has confirmed that New Game+ is coming to Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced next week. The announcement came through the official Assassin's Creed account on X, which thanked players for their patience and paired the news with a GIF of a grinning Edward Kenway. Ubisoft hasn't given an exact date or said what the mode will include, so we don't know yet whether players will carry over gear, upgrades, or anything else into a fresh run, although that is to be expected from a New Game+.
The feature has been a long time coming, as Ubisoft first promised New Game+ content back in July when the game crossed 3 million sales. Around the same time, game director Richard Knight told YouTuber JorRaptor that the team was already working on New Game+ and that it was one of the first things on the list. He also called it relatively low risk, since Assassin's Creed Shadows already had its own version of the mode.
Black Flag Resynced launched on July 9 and has done well for Ubisoft so far, hitting 2 million sales in 24 hours and selling 3.5 million copies in its first two weeks, which already exceeded Ubisoft's expectations for the whole year. New Game+ will likely give players who finished the story over the summer a reason to jump back into the Caribbean.
Ubisoft had reportedly tied the future of its remakes to how Black Flag performed, and an Assassin's Creed 1 remake is said to be next in line. The addition of New Game+ addresses one of the most requested features from the community since launch.
