Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced Global Release and Preload Times Revealed

Ubisoft has confirmed the global release and preload times for Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced. After years of anticipation and more leaks than a galleon hit by cannonballs, Edward Kenway's grand return is just days away. This is the brilliant 2013 adventure rebuilt from the ground up for PC and modern consoles, featuring enhanced visuals, welcome gameplay improvements, and plenty of new story content. As previously announced, the original multiplayer mode and first-person modern-day segments have been removed to focus on exploring the Caribbean. But when can you set sail? Here's exactly when you can raise the anchor, no matter where you live. Pre-loading begins first: Xbox Series X|S pre-loads are available now, while PC and PS5 pre-loads start at 2pm UTC on July 7 (or 12am local time on July 7 for PS5). The game's actual rollout is more complex but follows a similar pattern across time zones. On both PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, you can start your Caribbean adventures at midnight local time on July 7.
