Previous trailers have emphasized Kenway as one of the few who ever managed to 'truly live free' from king or law - a theme strongly tied to the overall series to date, most notably AC3. Now that the veil of secrecy has been lifted from the next installment in the Assassin's Creed series, it's becoming clearer just how much of the romanticism of the setting and time period is going to be captured by the developers. But beyond the swords and explosions of the newest 'Under the Black Flag' trailer lay serious hints at the game's story and evidence that Kenway may be more divorced from the Assassin/Templar conflict than some may expect.

Ubisoft has made somewhat of a habit out of cinematic trailers that get even casual onlookers interested, and the same is true for Black Flag. Thrusting players into the Golden Age of Pirates and a search for gold, gore and glory, the game's new protagonist Edward Kenway will be making a big splash in the Caribbean this November. In keeping with the marketing generally seen from the series, momentum is starting to build for Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag.
