In a Ubisoft interview, Creative Director, Jean Guesdon, said: “Desmond has been the main protagonist of the franchise so far. This won’t be the case in [Black Flag]; that being said [Black Flag] is not a reboot, neither is it a spinoff and we’re continuing to develop a consistent mythology. So yes, Desmond will be referred to as a very important legacy of the AC universe.”
Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag is headed to PC, PS3, PS4, Wii U and Xbox 360, and is also expected on the Xbox 720.
