Rogue continues the use of naval combat and exploration along with the usual on land activities (murdering, sneak murdering). Following Shay Cormac who, as a twist on the AC3 introduction, strays from the path of the Assassins guild leading to you becoming a Templar. Originally a last-gen exclusive, Assassin’s Creed Rogue continues and concludes the story that begins with Black Flag and ends in AC3. While there are characters from the overall series, at this point in the AC series the focus is more about reliving periods of history with more cloaked people with hidden blades running around. Black Flag feels like a course correct for the series now it’s unshackled itself from the mostly blank slate Desmond. Abstergo, while being a front for the Templars, is also poking fun at Ubisoft in a few cheeky (but never too cheeky) ways. After the more serious AC3, Black Flag doesn’t take itself as seriously, especially with the current day Abstergo sections. There’s also plenty of on-land Assassining, as Edward goes from ‘coincidentally killed an assassin and stole their identity’ to ‘I’m an assassin pirate now’.
Building on the naval combat of AC3, Black Flag has a bigger focus on sailing, maritime battles and exploration of the many islands dotted throughout the Caribbean. For the most part, it just provides background information and continues on the current day plight of the Assassins against the Templar’s.Īssassins Creed IV: Black Flag is the tale of Edward Kenway during the golden age of piracy on the high seas. Don’t worry, Desmond isn’t to be seen here. Each one leads up to the events in AC3, while also containing modern-day sections that follow on after Desmond’s story.
The Rebel Collection contains the two other games connected to Assassins Creed 3 Black Flag and Rogue. Time to take the leap of faith and see if we land in a sweet pile of hay or a steaming pile of manure. Good news is that the collection includes Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag, also joined by Rogue, Freedom Cry and all the other DLC.
But then they announced the Rebel Collection. The concern was that Ubisoft might ditch any future ports after Assassin’s Creed 3 being released so roughly. Thankfully (and kinda surprisingly) it was patched up to a much better state, then it just depended on how much you liked that game. Things got off to a bumpy start with Assassin’s Creed 3 Remastered, launching with rough performance. 2019 was the year we finally got some Assassin’s Creed on our Switches, of course not including the streaming versions in Japan.
