Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag Steam Page Update Lists New Features Pointing to Remake Improvements
Last year, in June, we reported that Ubisoft confirmed they were working on multiple Assassin’s Creed remakes. One of these remakes is said to be Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag. This was further backed up by various rumors and hints, with the latest updates on Steam adding weight to those claims.
Recently, some attentive fans noticed an important update on the game’s Steam page, revealing new technical features that were not present in the original 2013 version. These range from audio, graphical improvements, as well as added control customization and more.
New Features on Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag Steam Page Hint at Possible Remake
What was added via Steam include custom volume controls, stereo and surround sound, the option to use only the mouse, the ability to save at any time, and even difficulty adjustments—features completely absent in the original Black Flag.
These additions were discovered by monitoring the SteamDB platform, which tracks every technical and content change made to Steam pages. According to user The Hidden One on X (formerly Twitter), all Assassin’s Creed games released after 2014 feature these same updates on their Steam pages. He speculates that it might just be a mistake, or perhaps Ubisoft is updating every AC game released post-2014 with these changes.
Last month, Edward Kenway’s original voice actor hinted at the possibility of a remake, and in March, even the official statue makers linked to the franchise suggested it. These hints make the remake seem more likely.
Although Ubisoft has yet to make an official announcement, despite a likely teaser shared a few days ago, these technical and commercial signs seem to be pointing in the same direction. However, we should take this information with a pinch of salt and wait for official announcements from Ubisoft.
In related news, it was reported that the Assassin’s Creed Black Flag remake will feature more than just a visual upgrade, with enhanced gameplay mechanics and new systems, including improved combat and wildlife ecosystems
