Talking Point: Do You Still Get Excited About Remakes On Xbox In 2026?

Each and every year, hundreds of new games are thrown at us on Xbox, and we're almost always down to experience something brand-new in the gaming world. However, in recent years, remakes have seemingly become increasingly common on the platform - especially for some of these massive franchises that now have longer and longer development times.

Insert Assassin's Creed: Black Flag Resynced. The upcoming Ubisoft remake was finally revealed this week, and we've got to admit that we're pretty excited about it. Even as a series that still gets regular releases, Black Flag had such a unique vibe that we're really keen to re-experience it with some modern tweaks. The ill-fated Skull and Bones certainly didn't scratch that pirate adventure itch.
