Ubisoft has announced that it will release its final update for Assassin’s Creed Shadows on June 16. The new update comes just a few weeks before the release of Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced.
The highlights for the update are as follows:
- Black Tides Quest
- “Two elite-level Templars known as ‘Black Cross’ are called to Japan to hunt Naoe and Yasuke for all the trouble they have caused. But as is often the case with the Templar Order, those Black Cross may have additional goals of their own: It’s up to our two protagonists to prevent them from acquiring whatever they seek – and manage to stay alive…”
- Players will need to complete all the main quests for Naoe and Yasuke, as well as the “A Critical Encounter” and “A Puzzlement” quests in order to access Black Tides.
- New Black Flag Costumes for Yasuke and Naoe
- These will not release for Nintendo Switch 2, since Black Flag Resynced will not release for the platform.
- New Endgame Feature: Domains
- A new Animus activity where you’ll need to tackle 5 gameplay simulations across 10 challenge levels. You’ll need to be level 30 to access this feature.
- New Animus Rift: Horizon

Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced launches on July 9 for $59.99 on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. The upcoming remake boasts an impressive new visual style and completely reworked gameplay, harkening back to the series’ roots. Despite previous rumors, this will not be an RPG similar to the likes of Assassin’s Creed Shadows. However, Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced will not include the Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag’s multiplayer or Freedom Cry DLC expansion when it launches this July.
