Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag (PS4) The year is 1715. Pirates rule the Caribbean and have established their own lawless Republic where corruption, greed and cruelty are the laws that rule the wild without regard for anyone. These pirates, from the Caribbean to the Indian Ocean, have all been declared 'outlaws' by the empires and have been sent to the hell of the seas. Some have lost everything, these pirates have turned their backs on the empires and have joined the brotherhood of pirates. Captained by Edward Kenway, a pirate who has earned the respect of legends like Blackbeard, this pirate is an apprentice assassin who has been drawn into the ancient war between the Assassins and the Templars. He will question everything he thought he knew about the war and will find himself involved in the worst atrocities committed against the people of this island and will be swayed by the temptations of greed. Edward will seek the most famous pirate in the Caribbean, but he will be betrayed by the person known as Blackbeard and he will be captured and will end up in the governor's palace. He will need to escape and find the treasure of the philosopher's stone.
