Despite every installment since its release, Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag is regarded as one of the best games in the Assassin's Creed franchise, with some fans even claiming it is the best overall. Some of that may be due to the game's quality, but it also has some advantages, being the first game in the series to introduce a vast open world, as well as a unique pirate setting that sees players exploring a sprawling ocean for treasure and conquering enemy ships in intense naval battles. There is certainly a lot to love about Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag, so the ongoing rumors that a remake is in the works are most welcome.
