Overview
- Ubisoft Singapore is reportedly leading development with support from Ubisoft Bordeaux and Ubisoft Belgrade.
- Multiple reports say modern-day segments are being cut and replaced with roughly four hours of pirate-era content, including restored Mary Read material.
- The remake is said to adopt RPG-style progression with loot, gear stats, inventory changes, and revamped combat closer to recent series entries.
- Sources claim it uses the latest Anvil engine for seamless sailing and land traversal, expands activities on smaller islands, and reuses some Skull & Bones assets to reduce costs.
- The project is reportedly targeting an early 2026 launch, likely March, though sources warn the date could slip, and Ubisoft has not confirmed the game.
