Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag is an upcoming action-adventure game, and the sixth main installment in the Assassin's Creed series. A sequel to 2012's Assassin's Creed III due to the progression of the modern day storyline, the game will tell the story of Edward Kenway - father to Haytham Kenway, grandfather to Ratonhnhaké:ton and an ancestor of Desmond Miles. Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag will be set primarily on and around the islands in the Caribbean Sea during the Golden Age of Piracy in the early 18th century, with three major cities consisting of Havana, Nassau and Kingston.

Multiplayer

The multiplayer aspect of Black Flag will include cooperative and competitive multiplayer modes from previous games,[1] alongside new maps and new characters.[2]

Marketing

Ubisoft has confirmed that, as with its predecessor Assassin's Creed III, Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag will have an additional 60 minutes of downloadable gameplay for Sony's current-gen and next-gen consoles.[3]

Criticism

Edward aboard the Jackdaw as a whale breaches the water ahead.

After this screenshot (right) was released, PETA issued a statement condemning Black Flag as "disgraceful" as it "glorified" whaling.

A Ubisoft spokesperson provided this response to IGN.

"History is our playground in Assassin's Creed. Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag is a work of fiction that depicts the real events during the Golden Era of Pirates. We do not condone illegal whaling, just as we don't condone a pirate lifestyle of poor hygiene, plundering, hijacking ships, and over the legal limit drunken debauchery."
