Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag
Assassin’s Creed IV Black Flag begins in 1715, when pirates established a lawless republic in the Caribbean and ruled the land and seas. These outlaws paralyzed navies, halted international trade, and plundered vast fortunes. They threatened the power structures that ruled Europe, inspired the imaginations of millions, and left a legacy that still endures.

Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag is a game I enjoyed immensely. It controls and plays better than Assassin’s Creed III and its hard not to enjoy causing all sorts of mayhem on land and sea. Its not perfect, combat is over simplified, but the pure joy I experienced sinking ships and hunting sharks overshadows the niggling issues I encountered.

I've played all of the major titles released with the Xbox One, and the one that I've had the most fun with, the one that I keep going back to, is Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag. If you get only one game with your shiny new Xbox One console, make it this one. Final Rating: 92%.

"Assassin's Creed IV" is very different from the five games that preceded it, but proves that a little change can be a good thing. Gameplay If you've played the previous five "Assassin's Creed" games on a console or PC, you'll find the mechanics in "Assassin's Creed IV" very similar. Employing parkour to leap from rooftop to rooftop hasn't changed since the medieval Arab Altaïr did it in the first "Assassin's Creed." Edward can fight off multiple enemies with hidden blades, swords and pistols, like the Italian Renaissance killer Ezio in "Assassin's Creed II." Exploring the wilderness while hunting rare animals is something that Connor already experienced during the American Revolutionary War in "Assassin's Creed III." However, "Assassin's Creed IV" synthesizes all of these old experiences in new and exciting ways.
