'I can't say anything officially, but it doesn't feel like a crazy bet' — Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced director can't confirm post-launch content, but hopes fans continue playing even after GTA 6 comes out
"Please play us when GTA 6 comes out"
- Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced game director Richard Knight is keeping future content plans under wraps for now
- He says post-launch support "doesn't feel like a crazy bet"
- He hopes fans will continue playing the game after Grand Theft Auto 6 launches
Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced game director Richard Knight can't confirm if the title will receive post-launch content yet, but he hopes players will continue playing after Grand Theft Auto 6 releases.
In the same interview with YouTuber JorRaptor where Knight confirmed that Resynced will get a New Game Plus update at some point, the director was asked to discuss the game's post-launch roadmap and the plans moving forward.
"I can't say anything officially, but you know, it doesn't feel like a crazy bet," Knight said.
"We definitely need to support the game. We need to fix bugs. Sorry for anyone running into bugs. They hurt. They're painful for us, too. And we do want to add some quality-of-life stuff. So it's a pretty reasonable guess."
Then, as if considering the stiff competition when the game launches on November 19, he joked, "Also, please play us when GTA 6 comes out.”
As the first Assassin's Creed remake, it's unclear what the future holds for the game compared to new titles like Shadows and Mirage. While some hope for a remake of the original game's Freedom Cry expansion, Knight has said that it's still early days and plans aren't set in stone.
The director teased that there are team members who have "[DLC ideas," but balancing and updating the core game is currently the focus.

"Beyond that, I just want to say our focus with Black Flag remake has always been Edward," he added. "He's the kind of heart soul of the original game, and so you know maybe there could be more to tell there too."
Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced is now available on PS5, Xbox Series X and Series S, and PC.
