Pirate's fortune: ubisoft scraps reward tease after player stumbles upon hidden treasure in assassin's creed black flag resynced

In a stroke of luck, a diligent Assassin's Creed fan has unearthed a long-sought treasure in the newly remastered Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced, prompting Ubisoft to scrap its planned reveal.

Accidental discovery trumps ubisoft's planned community chest

Players were eagerly awaiting the Community Treasure Hunt chest, which would have yielded a rare outfit for Edward Kenway, but the outfit was inadvertently discovered by a player who stumbled upon an unmarked treasure.

-Holliday, the Reddit user who made the astonishing find, claimed they were undertaking a naval contract when they spotted air bubbles rising from the ocean floor.

Diving down, they found a chest containing the Explorer Outfit, a design featured in the original Black Flag. The incredible discovery left -Holliday briefly shaken with excitement, knowing the outfit was highly sought after.

Ubisoft acknowledged -Holliday's remarkable find with good humor, praising their exceptional treasure hunting skills and deciding to forgo its planned reveal for the community chest.

Coordinates for the Chest: 28 x 292

For those keen to claim the chest and its rare reward for themselves, the exact coordinates are 28 x 292. Another hidden reward, a rapier and figurehead, can be found at 500 x 168.

Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced, praised for bringing the original game up to modern standards, offers an enormous ocean to explore, with players likely only seeing a fraction of its depths.
