Following earlier social media hints, Ubisoft's new head of Assassin's Creed content, Jean Guesdon, has officially confirmed a remake of Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag, titled Resynced, in a detailed blog post. The post also provides updates on other franchise projects like Hexe and Invictus amid ongoing developments.
In a blog post dated March 4, 2026, Jean Guesdon, newly appointed head of content for the Assassin's Creed franchise, addressed persistent rumors about upcoming titles—building on prior social media teases like the February GTA meme response. He explicitly confirmed that Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag Resynced, a remake of the 2013 pirate adventure, is in development, sharing an image of the project's logo. Guesdon wrote, "Speculation around Assassin's Creed is not new, but it's worth repeating: 'Nothing is true. Everything is permitted.' Well, except in this case, some whispers have a little more wind in their sails. Keep your spyglass on the horizon."
The post notes that a full announcement remains distant, with recent reports indicating a delay of up to a year due to Ubisoft's restructuring.
Guesdon also updated on other projects: Assassin's Creed Hexe is "being built with great care by our veteran team at Ubisoft Montreal," promising a "unique, darker, narrative-driven" experience, though details are on hold to meet its vision. For the PvP-focused Invictus, he clarified, "yes, it's a new approach to multiplayer... but it isn't quite what the rumours have suggested."
Additional mentions include Assassin's Creed Jade and plans to reintroduce co-op elements. This transparency signals Ubisoft's roadmap for the franchise's future.
