From Ubisoft:
Today, we are releasing the final major content update for Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced.
PATCH HIGHLIGHTS
New Game+ in Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced
New Game+ is officially available in Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced, allowing you to start your adventure from the beginning while maintaining your previous run-through’s progression, including:
- Gear and tools
- Weapons
- Trinkets
- Jackdaw and ship upgrades
- Pets
- And more!
When you activate New Game+, your story progress, active quests, quest items, map discover, location progress, and forts will reset. While your upgrades to the Jackdaw and Hideout remain in place, you'll need to regain access to each through story progression. You can continue your adventure up through New Game+ 5, and each iteration of New Game+ will introduce an additional difficulty modifier so your adventure scales with your abilities and loadout.
Nightmare Difficulty
Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced 1.0.8 update also added a Nightmare Difficulty level, inviting you to test your mastery across ground combat, stealth, and naval combat. With Nightmare Difficulty enabled, you'll find:
- Increased enemy damage
- Increased attack frequency
- Tighter parry and dodge windows
- Faster ranged attacks
- Heightened enemy detection
- More threatening naval encounters
Anyone can toggle on Nightmare Difficulty, regardless of your progression in the story, and you can activate if for combat, stealth, naval, and activity difficulty independently, letting you customize your adventure to your playstyle even further.
