When it comes to Assassin’s Creed, few titles in the series are as frequently praised as the now slightly aging Black Flag. A game that’s long been rumoured to receive a remake — and one that now seems practically confirmed, thanks to Edward Kenway’s voice actor, Matt Ryan.
This comes after Ryan rhetorically asked a fan if they had completed the game, and then followed up with: “You may have to beat it again. There’s a reason, but I can’t say anything.” It certainly sounds like he’s hinting at being involved in something new — most likely that Ubisoft has recorded new or updated voice lines for Edward, and perhaps other characters as well.
The latest rumours suggest a possible release in 2026. While Ubisoft hasn’t made any official statements, it’s starting to feel like a full reveal might drop later this year — especially with Matt Ryan actively teasing that something “big” is coming. All we can do is hope.
