When it first began as a rumor in 2023, there was optimism and skepticism alike. All these years later, and despite a major reshuffle at Ubisoft, Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced is finally here. It’s received a new launch trailer set to “Full Circle” by Half Moon Run, which you can check out below.

However, the eagle-eyed among you will likely have noticed that it’s actually a remake of the “Horizon” trailer from E3 2013. A favorite among fans, it showcases a pretty montage of Edward Kenway’s life in the Caribbean, from sailing and enjoying the breeze to fighting (and slaying) soldiers at night.

From naval battles in bad weather to a Diving Bell expedition underwater, leading back to another moment of peace as he walks the shore, Edward’s life may very well have come full circle with the remake. And once again, he’s setting sail for the horizon.

Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced is available for Xbox Series X/S, PS5, and PC – check out our review here, where we gave it a nine out of ten, alongside a graphical analysis and some tips to get you started. While it’s a faithful remake of the 2013 classic, much like this launch trailer, it offers new content, including eight new end-game missions and revamped combat and parkour.
