In a year crowded with remakes that only polish the screenshot, Resynced does the harder thing. It rebuilds the toy without breaking the spell. The graphics leap is massive. The combat is more demanding, if not fully elegant. The sailing is still the best argument the series has ever made for itself. Come for the ray-traced water. Stay because the Jackdaw...

Still, even with these minor narrative missteps, Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced is a standout remake, taking the best bits of the original and sprucing them up for the modern era.
Assassin's Creed Black Flag: Resynced is the best possible tribute Ubisoft could have paid to one of the most beloved and iconic installments in the saga.
A hallmark of excellence. There may be flaws, but they are negligible and won't cause massive damage. Black Flag might be Resynced, but its heart remains.
While there is a glaring omission to the content in this package, Black Flag Resynced feels like the definitive pirate adventure that Ubisoft Montreal wanted to tell more than a decade ago. All of the improvements make this one of the best looking (and playing) Assassin's Creed adventures to date.
