In an interview with the British site MCV, the lead content manager for Ubisoft Carsten Myhill stated that for Assassin's Creed brotherhood IV: Black Flag the development team is trying to stay as far as possible away from the pirate genre clichés as prisoners made walk on suspended boards ships, hands hooked and parrots perched on the shoulders of pirates: the game will be the pirate setting in a more mature and hard.

Carsten explained that the team wants to give the pirate genre the "HBO treatment", referring to the American channel, famous for having given rise to extremely mature series like Band of Brothers , a game of Thrones , Boardwalk Empire and many others. The goal of the developers is to redefine the way in which they are given the pirates in the world of entertainment, offering a vision of the topic far more boyish than offered by films such as pirates of the Caribbean.

We know, and especially to see, more to find out if Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag represents really the dream of all pirate stories amandi.
