2026-07-02 05:33:11 | Written by Alfred

Thinking about Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced on PS5 and not sure which edition to pick or whether it's worth a preorder? This short guide breaks down what the remaster adds on PlayStation 5, the difference between Standard and Deluxe, and where it lands vs the €59.99 PS Store RRP. When you're ready to compare every live price, head to our Black Flag Resynced PS5 price page.


What Resynced adds on PS5

Black Flag Resynced is a full remaster of the 2013 original — the highest-rated Assassin's Creed ever (around 88-90 on Metacritic, 16M+ copies sold) — developed by Ubisoft Singapore and out July 9, 2026.

  • Rebuilt visuals on the modern Anvil engine: new lighting, higher-res textures, reworked models.
  • PS5 performance: 4K output, a 60 fps Performance mode and a higher-fidelity 30 fps mode, near-instant SSD loads.
  • DualSense: haptics for cannon fire and sword clashes, adaptive triggers on the Jackdaw's weapons, 3D audio for naval battles.
  • Updated combat and parkour, plus all original DLC including the Freedom Cry standalone campaign.


Standard vs Deluxe on PS5: which to pick?

  • Standard (€59.99 RRP) — base game, full campaign, all original DLC, plus the pre-order Blackbeard's Crimson Pack (costume, sword, pistol). Live: €53.99 at Media Markt ES.
  • Deluxe (€69.99 RRP) — everything above plus the Master Assassin Character Pack and Naval Pack (Edward outfit + weapons, ship sails, pet, crew attire, wheel, figurehead, hull trim). Live: €63.00 at Kinguin.

For most players the Standard Edition is the smart buy — the Deluxe extras are purely cosmetic. Go Deluxe only if the price gap is small and you want the Master Assassin packs from day one.

Tip: A PS5 code (PSN Key) is region-locked — an EU code only redeems on a European PlayStation account (same for US/UK). Match the offer's region to your account; every offer on our price page shows its region.

FAQ

Is Black Flag Resynced worth preordering on PS5?

If you missed the 2013 original or want to replay the best AC on modern hardware, yes — the base game is a classic and the PS5 version adds real visual, performance and DualSense upgrades. If you finished it recently or you're wary of Ubisoft remasters, wait for launch reviews.

PSN Key vs shared Account?

A PSN Key redeems on your own account — yours forever, like a PS Store purchase. A shared Account offer is cheaper but riskier for a brand-new AAA and can be reclaimed. For a launch title, buy the PSN Key.

When does it release and will it be on PS Plus?

July 9, 2026 on PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PC. It arrives on Ubisoft+ Premium day one; PS Plus Game Catalog inclusion isn't confirmed and is unlikely at launch.
