Episode Details

Ubisoft has finally pulled back the curtain on Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced, confirming a July 9th release date and a heavy focus on single-player story. However, the 'resync' comes with baggage, as the developer is cutting multiplayer, the Freedom Cry DLC, and the modern-day Abstergo sections to focus on Edward Kenway’s Caribbean journey. Meanwhile, the rumor mill is churning for Xbox Game Pass, with leaks suggesting a flexible 'Pick Your Own Plan' system and a delayed arrival for Call of Duty titles. We also take a look at Owlcat Games' leap into shooters with The Expanse: Osiris Reborn, the rocky start for Samson, and a surge in indie reveals from the ID@Xbox Showcase including Deep Dish Dungeon and Vapor World: Over The Mind.
