Will Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced Be On Xbox Game Pass?

Ubisoft has announced Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced, a remake of the 2013 pirate adventure. With Xbox Game Pass generating significant industry discussion—including reports of upcoming changes to subscription tiers and pricing for Ultimate and PC subscribers—many players have been wondering whether the Black Flag remake will be included in the service.

Given Microsoft’s strategy to position Game Pass as a premier gaming destination, some speculated that a major franchise remake could be an attractive addition to the service’s library. However, Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced is not currently being advertised as coming to Xbox Game Pass. This means players interested in the remake will need to purchase it at full retail price rather than access it through subscription.

This decision reflects a common industry pattern where major AAA releases from major publishers like Ubisoft typically launch at full price before potentially arriving on subscription services at a later date. While Game Pass continues to expand its library regularly, high-profile new releases often remain exclusive to traditional purchase models at their debut.
