[QUOTE="Admin, post: 59733, member: 1"] Ubisoft is reportedly developing a remake of 2013’s Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag. However, it's apparently in its early stages and won’t be complete for a few years. According to [URL='https://kotaku.com/assassin-s-creed-4-black-flag-remake-skull-bones-1850596271']Kotaku[/URL], a team at Ubisoft Singapore is heavily involved in the remake’s development. The Singapore studio is also helping out with evolving Assassin’s Creed’s ocean technology as it is currently working on Skull and Bones. In an internal email viewed by Kotaku, the Singapore studio is reportedly forcing its developers to work on Skull and Bones in person at the office instead of remotely. While the studio is seemingly providing breakfast and dinner, it looks like the move is to pressure its developers to work longer hours in order to ship the closed beta that’s due in late August. The team working on Skull and Bones also reportedly discussed if it was possible to pivot Skull and Bones into a game that’s more like Black Flag. That'd potentially mean adding elements of co-op exploration and hand-to-hand combat instead of just resource-gathering mechanics and PvP naval battles. [H2]Is Skull and Bones evolving?[/H2] Skull and Bones was first revealed in 2017, but has been delayed many times over the past few years. It was supposed to be released in November 2022 but was pushed back to March 2023.
