Ubisoft has recently reuploaded a significant collection of sea shanties from the popular game Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag. This action took place on the company’s official YouTube music channel. Many fans immediately noticed this change and began to speculate about what it might mean for the future of the game.

When the music appeared online, a large number of gamers assumed this was a sign that a remake of the classic pirate adventure was coming soon. The reupload seemed like a preparation step for a new release. However, Ubisoft has come forward to explain the real reason behind this sudden update.

The game developer claims that the reupload had absolutely nothing to do with a potential remake of the game. Instead, Ubisoft stated that the music was made available again due to technical problems they encountered. They want everyone to stop reading too much into the situation and understand that it was just a routine fix.

Here is the full statement provided by Ubisoft regarding the situation: “Hi there music lovers! We encountered some technical issues with a few of our videos, which we had to reupload. Apologies for the trouble, and hope you enjoy the music.” This message was posted directly on their YouTube channel to address the confusion.

Despite this clear explanation from the company, many fans remain skeptical about the official reason. Some users in the comments section made jokes about the situation. One person wrote, “Technical issues in the Animus that calls for a resync in Assassin’s Creed Black Flag,” referencing the game’s fictional technology.

Another user expressed doubt with a sarcastic comment, simply writing, “yeah suuuuuuure.” A different commenter was much more direct, calling Ubisoft’s explanation “b**t” and suggesting that the company was hiding the truth about a remake. It is clear that the community does not fully trust the technical issue explanation.

Currently, the gaming community is essentially just waiting for Ubisoft to officially confirm that a remake of Black Flag is indeed in development. Most people are 99.9 percent certain that this project is happening based on various clues and rumors that have surfaced over the last year.

Back in August of the previous year, voice actor Matt Ryan, who played the character Edward Kenway in the original game, shared an interesting story. He claimed that Ubisoft took legal action against him after he hinted at the existence of a remake during a convention appearance. This incident only fueled the speculation further.

Then, just a couple of months ago in November, Ubisoft’s financial reports provided another clue. The reports mentioned an unannounced title that was scheduled to be released during the fourth quarter of the current financial year. This release window would place the game’s launch before April of the following year.

If all of that evidence was not enough to convince you that a remake is real, there was another development in December. A PEGI listing for a game called “Black Flag Resynced” was spotted online. This listing strongly suggests that the project is real and moving forward.

It really does seem to be a case of when the remake will be announced, rather than if it is coming at all. The evidence is mounting, and the excitement is growing. But according to Ubisoft, the recent music reupload was definitely just about fixing technical issues and nothing more.
