With Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced due out next week, Ubisoft has confirmed the remake might be Steam Deck Verified right at launch. Meaning it should run well enough on Valve’s handheld out of the box, with the default settings, controller icons, and text all sized for the Deck. The sport is out on July 9, and the Steam extras are in place from day one too, including Steam Achievements and Steam Collectibles like virtual trading cards, profile backgrounds, badges, and emoticons.
Beyond the Steam Deck, Ubisoft is pushing the identical visual features across every version of the sport. Resynced is a ground-up rebuild on the newer Anvil engine, the identical one behind Assassin’s Creed Shadows. To be clear, it is a remake, not only a remaster. It adds ray-traced lighting and reflections, a dynamic weather system, and a Caribbean rebuilt with current hardware in mind. For the reason that remake is current-gen only, it’s only available on PlayStation 5, XBOX Series X|S, and PC with no PlayStation 4 or Switch 2 version in the combo.
Resynced runs $59.99, and on PC it’s sold through Steam, the Ubisoft Store, and the Epic Games Store. Preordering nets the Blackbeard’s Crimson Pack, which bundles a dressing up for Edward together with a sword and a pistol that carry their very own perks. The Steam Deck is a platform we’ve spent loads of time with, so a significant Ubisoft release being verified on day one is price noting for anyone who plays portable. For those planning to sail the Jackdaw from a handheld, you ought to be good to go.
