Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced confirmed not an RPG, PC system requirements revealed

Ubisoft has put RPG rumours to rest during the Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced Showcase, confirming the remake stays true to its roots, and the PC specs to run it have now been revealed.

Black Flag Resynced is not an RPG

When directly asked about the game’s direction, Ubisoft was clear: “This remains a solo adventure and character-driven experience. It is not an RPG.” That’ll be a relief for fans of the original’s tight, pirate-focused formula.

That said, Black Flag Resynced isn’t a straightforward port. The remake brings a reworked weather system affecting ship movement, enhanced underwater exploration, updated combat, and reworked tailing and eavesdropping missions. Three new crewmate character missions and additional Edward Kenway content are also included. His original voice actor is returning for the role, too, per a leaked presentation prior to the showcase.

PC System Requirements

Ubisoft has also confirmed the full Black Flag Resynced PC requirements. A 65GB SSD and 16GB RAM (dual-channel) are needed across all presets. Here’s the full breakdown:

Spec	Minimum	Recommended	High	Ultra
OS	Windows 10/11 (64-bit)	Windows 10/11 (64-bit)	Windows 10/11 (64-bit)	Windows 10/11 (64-bit)
CPU	Intel i7-8700K / AMD Ryzen 5 3600	Intel i5-10600K / AMD Ryzen 5 3600	Intel i5-11600K / AMD Ryzen 5 5600X	Intel i7-12700K / AMD Ryzen 7 5700X3D
GPU	GTX 1660 6GB / RX 5500 XT 8GB / Arc A580 8GB	RTX 3060 12GB / RX 6600 XT 8GB / Arc B580 12GB	RTX 3080 10GB / RX 6800 XT 16GB	RTX 4090 24GB / RX 7900 XTX 24GB
RAM	16GB (dual-channel)	16GB (dual-channel)	16GB (dual-channel)	16GB (dual-channel)
Storage	65GB SSD	65GB SSD	65GB SSD	65GB SSD

The minimum bar is fairly accessible, with GTX 1660-tier hardware sufficient to get things running. Ultra targets 4K at 60 FPS, requiring an RTX 4090 or RX 7900 XTX.
