Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced Tops 3 Million Sales in First Week
Following a massive two-million-unit opening, Ubisoft’s Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced has officially crossed the three-million-sales mark across all platforms within its first week.
Ubisoft shared the milestone across social media, thanking players while officially confirming that a New Game Plus mode is currently in development. Though previously teased by the game's director, the feature has now been formally announced for the wider public.
Key Highlights & Launch Performance
-
Steam Dominance: On July 9, the remake surged past Assassin's Creed Shadows—Ubisoft's previous top seller on Steam—hitting a peak concurrent player count of 104,756.
-
Series Milestone Potential: With its current trajectory, Black Flag Resynced is on track to potentially become the best-selling title in the entire franchise.
-
Launch Day Hiccups: Despite strong commercial success, the release faced player backlash over heavy day-one microtransactions and cosmetic DLC, leading to brief review-bombing on Steam.
-
PC Connectivity Issues: A Ubisoft Connect server outage temporarily locked PC players out of the title, sparking frustration since the game was marketed as fully playable offline.
Looking ahead, unconfirmed reports indicate Ubisoft’s next remake project may be a Resynced version of the original 2007 Assassin’s Creed, potentially targeted for late 2027 to align with the franchise’s 20th anniversary.
What We Know So Far
Ubisoft Singapore confirmed that the game is being built for Xbox Series X|S, PC (Microsoft Windows), PlayStation 5, with improved visuals, new mechanics, and environments designed around the storybook theme.
We wanted to create a world that feels like stepping into a storybook — full of wonder, surprises, and discovery around every corner.
