Assassin's Creed Voice Actor Hints At A Potential Black Flag Remake

Rumors about a remake of Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag have been circulating since 2023, but they're picking up momentum in 2025. Ubisoft has yet to officially announce Black Flag's return to modern consoles and PC, but voice actor Matt Ryan recently hinted that a remake is on the way.

On social media, an X user going by @TheRealZephryss shared a video from @SuperDropKick17 that features Ryan signing autographs at a convention. Ryan--who voiced Black Flag's leading character, Edward Kenway--was asked if he had beaten the game and he affirmed that he had. Ryan then noted that he may need to beat the game again. "There's a reason I say that, but I can't say anything," added Ryan.

Earlier this month, a report put the spotlight on a live-stream from Pure Arts--the company behind PVC statues of Assassin's Creed characters--that addressed Edward's absence from the statue line. The hosts appeared to be confused about whether a Black Flag remake was announced, but went on to say that "there’s going to be something going on with Edward, and our PVC ⅛ scale statue will reflect that accordingly."

Last year, Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot confirmed that there are multiple Assassin's Creed remakes in the works, which will offer modern touches to the classic games.

In the meantime, the latest game in the series, Assassin's Creed Shadows, dropped a new update last week that includes a Critical Role collaboration and a new difficulty mode.
