Now that has to be one of the more… interesting ways to describe a game.
It does make perfect sense though, as Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag writer Darby McDevitt was illustrating that the ‘pirate theme’ goes perfectly with Assassin’s Creed.
“Anyone who ever had a question about [this] combination…it’s like peanut butter and chocolate: once you put it together, you’re like ‘this is correct even though it sounded weird from the beginning,'” McDevitt told GameSpot.
As the series is known for, McDevitt assured that Ubisoft thoroughly researched the theme to authentically create the demise of Black Flag.
“This is a question we get [asked] a lot about: how do you mix pirates and assassins? And one of the things we found in the research is that even though pirates are known for attacking ships a lot, they actually attacked ground targets almost as often,” McDevitt said.
Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag launches in late October for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and Wii U. The PC version will follow and it will be a launch title for the Xbox One and Playstation 4.
