Is It Finally Happening? Ubisoft Appears to Respond to New Assassin's Creed: Black Flag Remake Leak with Everyone's Favorite GTA Meme

A 35cm Edward Kenway statue linked to an unconfirmed Assassin's Creed Black Flag remake hints at a 2026 release, supported by a recent PEGI rating and leaks.

  • On January 27, 2026, leakers shared images of an unboxed Pure Arts Edward Kenway statue listed on Vinted, showing Ubisoft and Pure Arts logos on its base.
  • Ongoing leaks and merchandise hints have kept expectations high for the remake, with PEGI last month listing Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced and Ubisoft delaying release to the fiscal year ending March 31, 2027.
  • Merchandise details reflect rumored gameplay and visual updates as the Pure Arts statue shows Edward Kenway seated on a treasure chest with pirate gear, matching reports of modernized visuals and removed Animus content.
  • The Vinted leak and PEGI listing together make the remake's existence more plausible, but Ubisoft's reshuffle has pushed any unannounced launch into the fiscal year ending March 31, 2027.
  • The leak emerged via an unexpected channel—an unboxed Vinted listing—while Edward Kenway's voice actor briefly teased the project before saying Ubisoft told him to stop.
