Well, Ubisoft finally gave AC fans what they asked for...

The little bit of gameplay I've seen so far looks really good.

I considered getting it for PC. As acclaimed as it is, I've never actually played GoT. Maybe I should get that out of the way first.

 

I can't sing GoT's praises enough. I used to jokingly call it the best Assassin's Creed game ever (it was a more satisfying combat version and even storywise, a close cousin). They just elevated the format. They set the bar very high. AC Shadows has huge shoes to fill. So far, at the very least, they haven't embarrassed themselves.

And the sequel, Ghost of Yotei, is coming either later this year, or early next year. Definitely give it a try.

But if the engine that AC Shadows is using is the same engine that they're remaking Black Flag with, that's going to be amazing.

 

OK, I'll add it to the queue.

They're remaking Black Flag?

 

Yes. Remake. Not Remaster. They're rebuilding it from the ground up using a new engine. Should look amazing. But will also play differently since they can do more with the format now.

No idea when it's coming. But I'd wager this time next year.

 

Wow.
