Ubisoft Singapore, one of the numerous studios under the Ubisoft umbrella, is particularly noteworthy in this context. The studio is also responsible for Skull and Bones, another ambitious pirate-themed adventure from Ubisoft that has faced its share of challenges. While Black Flag Resynced seemed destined to be revealed through leaks, Skull and Bones has been plagued by delays, including a postponement just weeks before its scheduled release in 2022. Originally announced in 2017, Skull and Bones was expected to launch in the fall of 2018 but has yet to set sail.
In an interesting twist, the development team for Black Flag Resynced is not limited to Ubisoft Singapore alone. The press release, tucked away in the fine print, reveals a robust roster of co-developing studios. This extensive collaboration includes:
