The upcoming Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced is turning out to be one of the greatest examples of what a remake or re-imagined version of a beloved game should be as it not only improves on everything in the original 2014 title but also adds over 6 hours of whole new, bonus gameplay sections that will delight everyone who had played the base game when it came out more than a decade ago.
In a recent interview with Wccftech, Richard Knight, the game director for Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced, has provided insights on many elements of the upcoming title including it’s overall length and additional contents that were not part of the original Black Flag.
He said that the length of the game will vary according to how you play it and although you can complete it in roughly 15 hours (possibly when doing only the main story missions), it can also take upwards of 40 hours if you decide to explore everything. The dev also mentioned that Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced is totally seamless which means you can jump in and out of all the different gameplay mechanics freely including traveling, hopping onto the naval missions and more.
He also confirmed that there’s going to be whole new gameplay sections in Resynced which will add around 6 hours of bonus contents that include entirely new quests, officer missions, and more additional activities.
The highly anticipated remake of the classic 2013 title also features a heavily reworked combat system since the original would feel terribly out-of-place in the current-day era of gaming in more ways than one. The new combat mechanics feels a whole lot more fluid and seamless while also featuring a more intuitive HUD with two mini-menus in each bottom corner which allows for seamless switching between the different types of weapons and items.
Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced is slated to be released on July 9th.
