Along with a full remake, the publisher has confirmed shipboard pets for the Jackdaw, including a cat and a monkey, plus wider visual and gameplay upgrades. Early footage shows the monkey swinging from the ropes during boarding sequences. Ubisoft\u2019s promo material also hints at at least some customization, since one of the pets is wearing a waistcoat instead of just sitting there as set dressing.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sc-card-program\">\r\n  <div class=\"sc-card-program__body\">\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row clearfix\">\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-logo\">\r\n        <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-program__img\" alt=\"Assassin's Creed IV Black Flag\" src=\"https:\/\/images.sftcdn.net\/images\/t_app-icon-s\/p\/b84863eb-6ff4-4164-a3cb-db5eddf3e689\/1428716749\/assassin-s-creed-iv-black-flag-logo\" width=\"100px\" height=\"100px\">\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-title\">\r\n        <span class=\"sc-card-program__title\">Assassin's Creed IV Black Flag<\/span>\r\n        <a class=\"sc-card-program__button sc-card-program-internal\" href=\"https:\/\/assassin-s-creed-iv-black-flag.en.softonic.com\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Download<\/a>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-rating\">\r\n        <svg class=\"rating-score__content\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" version=\"1.1\" x=\"0\" y=\"0\" viewbox=\"0 0 50 50\" enable-background=\"new 0 0 50 50\" xml:space=\"preserve\"><path class=\"rating-score__background rating-score--good\" fill=\"none\" stroke-width=\"6\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" d=\"M40 40c8.3-8.3 8.3-21.7 0-30s-21.7-8.3-30 0 -8.3 21.7 0 30\"><\/path><path class=\"rating-score__value rating-score__value--0\" fill=\"none\" stroke-width=\"6\" stroke-dashoffset=\"0\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" d=\"M40 40c8.3-8.3 8.3-21.7 0-30s-21.7-8.3-30 0 -8.3 21.7 0 30\"><\/path><text class=\"rating-score__number\" content=\"\" text-anchor=\"middle\" transform=\"matrix(1 0 0 1 25 31.0837)\" data-auto=\"app-user-score\"><\/text><\/svg>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row\">\r\n      <span class=\"sc-card-program__description\"><\/span>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row\">\r\n      <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-program__bigpic\" src=\"\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\">\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <a class=\"sc-card-program__link track-link sc-card-program-internal\" href=\"https:\/\/assassin-s-creed-iv-black-flag.en.softonic.com\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><\/a>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ubisoft says the remake is built on the latest version of its Anvil engine and will include <strong>ray tracing<\/strong>, dynamic weather, and reworked combat and stealth systems. Some basic questions are still hanging, though. Ubisoft hasn\u2019t said how pets are unlocked, whether you can keep more than one on board at once, how many animal types will make it into the final game, or whether they do anything beyond making the ship feel more alive.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you\u2019ve been looking for a reason to head back to the Caribbean, this is a pretty easy sell. It sounds a lot closer to a real reworking than a standard remaster.
