The Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag launch trailer was leaked over the weekend, revealing more details about Ubisoft’s pirate-themed action game.

The main character is Captiain Edward Kenway, who’s described by a pirate (Blackbeard) as a ‘fearsome dog’, a ‘devil dressed as a man.’ Kenway certainly seems a meaner character than Conner from Assassin’s Creed 3.

The game is set in the West Indies, around 1700: the golden age of piracy. Although Blackbeard is a real historical figure, it’s hard to imaging Black Flag being as much of a history lesson as AC 3, but it should be an interesting world to explore nonetheless. Movement from land to see will now be seemless, and the game promises an open world with three main city hubs, Havana, Kingston and Nassau. Check out these two early trailers:

Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag will be released on October 29 on PC and consoles.
