Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced Pirate Challenge

Ahoy Pirates!

It's been 4 months since the launch of Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced. Now is the time to prove just how pirate-worthy you really are!


Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced: Take Part in the Pirate Challenge!


Create the Ultimate Pirate Video

New Game + is here, giving you more opportunities to sail across the Caribbean

So, to prove just how pirate-worthy you really are, get ready for the Pirate Challenge!

Your mission is simple: create the best pirate-themed video possible using your own gameplay footage from Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced.

We're looking for videos that capture the essence of pirate life in all its forms. Whether it's epic naval battles, daring ship boardings, intense sword fights, breathtaking sea voyages, or unforgettable moments with your crew, we want to see your vision of the ultimate pirate fantasy. The more creative the video will be, the better!


Challenge rules

Here are some additional details to make the video:

  • Your video must last between 1 and 2 minutes.

  • Your video can be an edit, you don't need to have one single sequence. Feel free to include all the great sequences you want! Just do not take footage that is not yours! It has to be your own gameplay capture!

  • To record your video, you can use any option available to you, like the share caption on consoles or any software you'd like on PC

  • Additionally, make sure you put the credits at the bottom right of the video so that we know who it's from.

  • For the music, you can choose any original track from Black Flag Resynced or using your cover from the game!

Also, no gen-AI created footage.


Challenge timeline
