Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag Resynced Gets New Game+ Mode In Final Major Update
By Ahoy me mateys! Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag Resynced has launched its last significant update, introducing New Game+, a new nightmarish difficulty, and an array of additional features to the open-sea RPG.
Black Flag Resynced set sail on Xbox Series consoles on July 9th, and received a hearty salute from reviewers. This remastered pirate-assassin adventure achieved an impressive score of 83 on Metacritic.
Now, what does this fresh update contain? First up is New Game+, which carries over your gear and tools, weapons, trinkets, ship enhancements, pets, currency, and a multitude of other items into a new save file. The nightmare difficulty delivers precisely what it promises: escalates the challenge.
