Meet Assassin’s Creed 4’s Pirates in the Latest Black Flag Trailer

Another week, another Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag trailer. This time, Ubisoft wants to introduce you to some of the famous or rather infamous pirates you'll be hanging out with in Edward Kenway's Caribbean jaunt. 

Narrating the trailer is Captain Edward Kenway himself, voiced by the Matt Ryan. In the words of Gabe Graziani of Ubisoft Montreal on the PlayStation Blog: 

"Widely renowned for his incredible charisma and mercurial temper Captain Edward Kenway is joined by his Quartermaster and closest ally Adewale (played by Tristan D. Lalla). The pair will quickly find themselves thrown in with the likes of the wiley and terrifying Edward “Blackbeard” Thatch, the gentlemanly yet morally grey Benjamin Hornigold and the downright jolly Stede Bonnet.

"Meanwhile, the dauntless privateer Woodes Rogers seeks to eliminate the encroaching pirate threat festering in Nassau. But first, he’ll have to contend with the wicked and merciless cut-throat Charles Vane (played by Ralph Ineson)."

Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag is set for release on October 29th in North America and November 1st in Europe for PS3, Xbox 360, and Wii U. The title will launch later in November for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
