Rayman Legends Remake Emerges as 'Retold' With October 2026 Release

Insider Gaming reports that Ubisoft is developing a Rayman Legends remake, code-named Project Steambot and branded as Rayman Legends: Retold. A logo leak and prior exclusive hints from Insider Gaming support that the project is real, with a planned reveal within days and a targeted October 1, 2026 release, around the Summer Game Fest 2026 window. The remake is said to be led by the team that previously worked on the Prince of Persia remake, but concerns linger after 2026 cancellations; a full reveal is expected soon.

Pirate Era Reborn: Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced Teases a Full-Fledged Remake

Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced is a full remake built on the Anvil engine, adding roughly six hours of new content and a seamless open world that lets you sail to islands and settlements without loading screens. It revamps traversal and combat, expands naval warfare with new officer bonuses, introduces a trinket system, and reworks gear cosmetics while removing multiplayer, the Freedom Cry DLC, and the Desmond/Abstergo framing in favor of a new ‘Rifts’ narrative. Edward Kenway returns with Adewale (voiced by Matt Ryan) and Stede Bonnet, plus three new Jackdaw officers. Release is July 9, 2026 on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series S|X, with Standard, Deluxe, and Collector’s editions (the latter including physical collectibles); features include ray-traced visuals, multiple PS5 modes, and a photo mode.

Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced: A Faithful, Content-Packed Pirate Remake

Ubisoft’s Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced is a ground-up remake of the 2013 pirate adventure, rebuilt from the ground up on the same tech powering 2025’s Shadows. It launches July 9 on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC (Steam, Epic, Ubisoft store) with a standard $60 price and a $70 special edition. The 16km x 16km open world remains the same size but gains new islands and more dense exploration, plus about six hours of new content, updated ship combat, and an expanded endgame. It’s not an RPG—no skill trees or loot grind—and multiplayer is not included at launch. Modern-day segments are mostly removed (though some Animus moments remain), and Freedom Cry isn’t included, though there’s new content expanding Adewale’s story. Ubisoft says the remake is canon with the original, which remains purchasable alongside Resynced.

Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Remake: Ubisoft Confirms Dual Canon Status

Ubisoft says both the original Assassin’s Creed Black Flag (2013) and the upcoming Black Flag Resynced remake are canon, with the remake offering a more accurate retelling of Edward Kenway’s life while preserving the core events; modern-day sequences from the original have been removed but a new scene references the Sage, and the ending is adjusted to fit the updated canon. Black Flag Resynced launches July 9 on Xbox Series X/S, PS5, and PC.

Assassin's Creed Invictus Faces Cancellation Fears After Brutal Playtests

A Playtest report around April 30, 2026 claims Ubisoft’s multiplayer Assassin’s Creed Invictus—led by For Honor developers and pitched as a Fall Guys-style knockout experience—has turned out “really f***ing awful.” Sources say the project, in development for years and currently hit by several delays, could be delayed or cancelled despite an end-of-year release target. Insider Gaming corroborates the claim of a rough state, noting the game has potential but is not meeting expectations; Invictus is among Ubisoft’s broader slate that includes other projects like Emerald and Hexe.

Invictus Playtests Spark Delay Talk After Harsh Feedback

A recent leak claims playtest feedback for Assassin's Creed Invictus was extremely negative and suggests a delay or cancellation; Insider Gaming corroborates with sources from Ubisoft and testers. The game, described as a multiplayer arena title featuring Assassin's Creed characters in iconic locations, reportedly shows arena footage from Mirage and Odyssey, though Ubisoft says rumors aren't accurate. Invictus has faced multiple delays and is part of Ubisoft's 10-year plan to expand the franchise, developed by For Honor veterans.

Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced: Side Quests Return, but Hidden Blade Is Absent

Ubisoft’s Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced will restore much of the original’s side-content (Kenway’s Fleet, outfits, bar games) while removing Hidden Blade as a weapon and dropping the naval mini-map; memory corridors return with a simplified UI, the map remains 16km x 16km with a few added islands, and the classic wanted system stays intact.
