News: Check out the cast of Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag and see who is behind the characters for one of 2013’s biggest releases.

Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag comes out next month and Ubisoft has just released a new video introducing some of the cast that you will come to know when you are going through Edward Kenway’s journey. His fight for glory has earned him the respect of legends like Blackbeard, but also drawn him into the ancient war between Assassins and Templars, a war that may destroy everything the pirates have built.

In Assassin’s Creed 4 you will become Edward Kenway, a charismatic yet brutal pirate captain, trained by Assassins. Edward can effortlessly switch between the Hidden Blade of the Assassin’s Order and all new weaponry including four flintlock pistols and dual cutlass swords.

In Assassin’s Creed 4 you will discover the largest and most diverse Assassin’s Creed world ever created. From Kingston to Nassau, explore over 75 unique locations where you can live the life of a pirate including looting underwater shipwrecks, assassinating Templars in blossoming cities, hunt for rare animals in untamed jungles, searching for treasure in lost ruins and escaping to hidden coves.

You will become the most feared pirate in the Caribbean. Command your ship, the Jackdaw, and strike fear in all who see her. Plunder and pillage to upgrade the Jackdaw with ammunition and equipment needed to fight off enemy ships. The ship’s improvements are critical to Edward’s progression through the game. Attack and seamlessly board massive galleons, recruit sailors to join your crew and embark on an epic and infamous adventure.

You’ll stand along legendary names such as Blackbeard, Calico Jack and Benjamin Hornigold, as you establish a lawless Republic in the Bahamas and relive the truly explosive events that defined the Golden Age of Piracy. You’ll have to put your assassination skills to the test and embark on an online journey throughout the Caribbean. Discover a brand new set of pirate characters, and explore exotic and colourful locations. Additionally , create your own game experience with the new Game Lab feature – craft your own multiplayer mode by choosing abilities, rules and bonuses. Play and share your newly created mode with your friends.

Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag will be available on both current and next gen consoles. Will you be picking it up?
