Salman from Tech4Gamers writes "If Ubisoft plays its cards right, the Assassin's Creed remakes could achieve what Resident Evil 2 Remake did for Capcom."
It was talked about awhile back that the Singapore branch the ones that made skull bones are making a black flag remake. It has at that time 3 months of work put into it.

You believe something good would come from Ubisoft? Did you sleep the last 10-15 years?
Right ubisoft has been on life support for awhile everyone of there ip's has had huge shift's in population/sales and fan base.
Right now its all about xdefient but that game is still fixing netcode issues 3 years in.
The only time they should be remaking the first game is when they are ready to reboot the series after a long break and want to get back to their roots. Start a new re-freshed timeline which they've convoluted.
Though capcom has had sales for there re games lets not all forget the huge elephant in the room which is mod support.
The first resident evil remake was made by fans taken down by capcom then they stamped there logo on it after that mods came in made the replay factor way better than the original.
But when they made them all in house then came the cuts for the modern audience followed by re4 mt's then they went after the modders even in really old titles trying there best to crush mod support. Then you got the horrible drm crap pc port of village and that dumpster fire online re game.
So capcom has made money on remakes but after awhile there shine is not so bright
I hope ubisoft does not copy capcom as they would turn that dial from a 8 to a 11 add in there own mt's to older titles with time savers live service bs or worse black flag with stamina meter's.
They wouldn't understand how to remake the first ac games, they'd ruin them with real life politics. Happy?
Guillemot discusses his vision for Ubisoft’s upcoming slate, the future of the Assassin’s Creed franchise, the good and bad of the games industry, and more.
I'd like an Altair Collection, with Altaïr's Chronicles + Assassin's Creed + Bloodlines. I also wish Discovery would have been included in the Ezio Collection or offered as DLC for it.
Can’t imagine someone whose opinion I care to hear less. Unless it’s a “AAAA” interview, then that changes everything. /s
Damn I know we gone be waiting a while for those remakes, 😫 the classic ac games deserve, it would be dope if more devs did this, get the remembered gems closer to a technical level they pictured back then
This should make fans and collectors very happy. PureArts & Ubisoft Announce Assassin’s Creed Hunt for the Nine 1/6 Scale Diorama Assassin's Creed Hunt for the Nine 1/6 Scale Diorama available for pre-order on January 25.
Awesome find and scores. 36/40, glad to see Famitsu giving a great score to a great game.
29/40 Guilty Gear 2 Overture? I was expecting a higher score. Maybe it's indeed not as good as I had hope (Love the 2D ones).
Also, what is that Apocalypse: Desire Next!!??? Anyone know about this one?
Man GG2 got a crazy score, it still looks like Devil May Cry in the GG world to me so I think I'll be picking it up anyway. I really wish the 360 was region free.
HD gameplay montage is attached, the game looks soooooo dope I hope it makes it stateside. It reminds me of Bujingai on PS2 with better combat.
tbh gulty gear series was not to great as the king of fighters series BU THE JAP fighter i wana se is RIVAL SHCOOLS NEXT GEN that was a great game
Wow! I had no idea that there were that many terrible DS games. I mean come on: Gouma Reifu Den Izuna Ni???? Seriously.
Apocalypse: Desire Next (Xbox 360, Idea Factory): 6 / 5 / 4 / 6 - (21/40)
Nice try MSFT
