Reliable Insider Claims Another Assassin’s Creed Remake Is Already In The Works

Hey, Daily Quest readers.

Just when you thought Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag Resynced was Ubisoft’s one big nostalgia play, a new report suggests it might only be the beginning. According to Tom Henderson of Insider Gaming—one of the most consistently reliable leakers in the industry—another remake from the early Assassin’s Creed era is already in development.

 

If Henderson’s track record is anything to go by, this isn’t random speculation.

Henderson Says It’s In Early Development

On a recent episode of the Insider Gaming podcast, Henderson revealed that Black Flag won’t be the only game getting the “Resynced” treatment.

“There is another Assassin’s Creed remake in the works—one of the earlier ones,” Henderson said.

He also made it clear that this project is still in early stages. That’s important. Ubisoft has had a rocky history with remakes and reboots, from the lengthy development of the Splinter Cell remake to the infamous restart of Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time.

Early development doesn’t guarantee release.

Still, the fact that something is reportedly moving forward shows Ubisoft is serious about revisiting the franchise’s back catalog—especially if Black Flag Resynced performs well commercially.

No DLC For Black Flag (For Now)

Interestingly, Henderson also shut down rumors of DLC for Black Flag Resynced. According to him, there are currently no plans for additional content.

However, if the remake massively exceeds expectations, Ubisoft could revisit that decision later. But right now, the focus appears to be elsewhere—possibly on this mystery remake.

So… Which Game Is It?

Here’s where things get spicy.

Henderson only described it as “one of the earlier ones,” which opens the door to several possibilities:

• Assassin’s Creed (2007) – Altair’s original adventure
• Assassin’s Creed 2 – Ezio’s franchise-defining debut
• Assassin’s Creed 3 – Connor’s Revolutionary War tale
• Assassin’s Creed Unity – The ambitious but flawed Paris entry

Most fans immediately jumped to AC1 or AC2—and honestly, those are the safest bets. AC1 especially feels ripe for modernization, as its repetitive mission structure hasn’t aged particularly well.

But there’s also a compelling case for remaking AC3 or Unity, both of which had strong foundations but were hampered by technical issues and design missteps. A fully polished version of Unity’s Paris, free of launch bugs? That’s tempting.

Final Thoughts

Ubisoft clearly sees value in mining Assassin’s Creed’s past—but whether this remake makes it to launch depends heavily on Black Flag Resynced’s performance.

For now, consider this exciting—but not guaranteed.
