Assassin’s Creed 4 Black Flag Protagonist Is Related To Desmond, If Not Desmond Himself

Desmond Miles was the main protagonist of all the Assassin’s Creed games so far and if you have played Assassin’s Creed 3, you’d be left wondering who will actually be the main protagonist of Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag.

We won’t spoil it for you but it seems the Ubisoft guys have been talking about removing the middleman i.e. Desmond and making the player the direct connection to Edward Kenway—the guy you play as in the game.

Assassin’s Creed 4 Lead Writer Darby McDevitt told GameFront that it’s like “removing a layer between you and Edward Kenway.”

The story of the game should be interesting as well because Assassin’s Creed 3 closed the plot nicely, and since this is related someway to the game, Ubisoft needs to handle this well.

The game will be released this year for the PS3, Xbox 360, PC, Wii U and the next gen platforms. You can check out our complete coverage of the game here.
