The songs of the sea
No Black Flag is complete without a crew belting shanties into the wind. Here's what's confirmed for Resynced.
10 new shanties — plus the classics
Sailing the Caribbean with your crew singing in harmony is one of Black Flag's most-loved touches. Resynced leans into it: Ubisoft has confirmed 10 brand-new sea shanties, recorded fresh, joining the traditional favourites that returned from the 2013 original. The Collector's Edition even ships with a physical sea shanty music sheet.
The official titles of the 10 new shanties haven't been revealed yet — we'll add them here as soon as they're confirmed. Below are fan-favourite traditional shanties featured in the original Black Flag.
