Ubisoft Rolls Out Major Quality-of-Life Update 1.0.7 for Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag Resynced

Ubisoft has officially unveiled the patch notes for the latest update arriving in Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag Resynced. The patch, which weighs in at 1.53GB, is scheduled to go live on PlayStation 5 tomorrow, September 1st, 2026. While the update focuses primarily on stability and “under the hood” optimizations, it introduces several highly requested visual customization features that will surely please long-time fans of Edward Kenway’s swashbuckling adventure.

New Customization and Content

For players who prioritize aesthetics, the highlight of this patch is the expansion of gear visibility options. Following the success of the “hide blowpipe” feature, Ubisoft has confirmed that players can now choose to hide Edward’s pistols. Additionally, the update addresses the glowing visual effects associated with trinkets and perks; players now have the agency to toggle these effects off, allowing for a cleaner, more grounded look for the protagonist.

Beyond the visuals, a new “furry friend” has been added to the game. Players are encouraged to explore the Caribbean to rescue this new companion, who will eventually join Edward at his Hideout.

Continued Development

While fans have been clamoring for a New Game+ mode, Ubisoft used the announcement to reiterate that the feature remains in active development. Although it is not included in this week’s drop, the studio confirmed it is still on the roadmap for future updates.

Comprehensive Bug Fixes

The 1.0.7 update is packed with a massive list of corrections addressing gameplay, UI, and technical stability. Notable fixes include:

• Gameplay Improvements: Resolved issues where enemies would rise from the dead after smoke bombs, fixed erratic enemy ship spawning, and corrected the “loop of death” involving the Fort’s War Room Door.
• Stability: Addressed several crash triggers, including those occurring in the Store, the Kenway’s Fleet menu, and specific scenarios involving the PS5’s out-of-bounds triggers.
• Quest Refinements: Major progression blockers have been addressed in key missions such as “Everything is permitted,” where AI characters like Ah Tabai previously suffered from stun-lock issues.
• Accessibility: Significant improvements were made to color-blindness presets and menu narration to ensure a more inclusive experience.
