Assassin’s Creed 4 Remake Teased by Edward Kenway Actor

by

It appears that Ubisoft’s remake of Assassin’s Creed 4 might be forthcoming, hinted at by Edward Kenway actor Matt Ryan. The Assassin’s Creed series is a highly successful gaming franchise, often considered Ubisoft’s crown jewel. When it first launched in 2007, the franchise offered players an engaging experience, transporting them to significant historical periods, encountering and even battling famous historical figures, and exploring cultures as they once existed. This concept has resulted in some exceptional action-adventure games, with Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag frequently regarded as the series’ peak due to its pirate theme.

In the game Assassin’s Creed 4, the pirate theme was extensively used to highlight sailing and ship battles, a feature that was previously presented in short spurts. This time around, it took center stage and significantly contributed to the game’s success. Interestingly, Ubisoft moved away from ship combat after this game, intending to spin it off into its own project, which eventually became the failed Skull and Bones. However, there have been whispers for a while now that Ubisoft is remaking Assassin’s Creed 4. Despite being fully functional on current consoles, these rumors are gaining more momentum.

At a recent convention, actor Matt Ryan, known for his role as Edward Kenway in Assassin’s Creed 4, was signing merchandise. When asked by a fan if they had completed the game, he subtly hinted at the much-discussed remake of the series. He suggested that the fan might want to play it again, which could be interpreted as a nod towards the rumored remake. When pressed about the topic, Ryan gave a coy smile but didn’t provide any further details, hinting that there is indeed something he can’t reveal yet.

During a chat with fans, Edward Kenway’s voice actor, Matt Ryan, seemed to hint at the possibility of an Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Remake. Here’s what he said:

“Have you finished the game?… it might be that you need to play it once more.”

And, “There’s a reason I say this, but I can’t disclose it…

This situation stirs curiosity regarding the rumored remake of Assassin’s Creed 4. Normally, developers opt for using existing voiceovers since they remain in good condition. However, it’s possible that Ryan might have recorded fresh material for this new project. The mystery deepens as we wait to find out, but there’s definitely a lot of excitement surrounding the remake. It’s not clear what specific changes Ubisoft is making to this game edition to warrant a fresh launch, especially considering its smooth 60FPS performance and impressive look on Xbox Series X|S and PS5. If the remake doesn’t involve significant improvements, it may face criticism. Regardless, we hope for more updates on the project soon.

What changes do you want to see in this remake? Let me know in the comments.
