Sounds... boring.

Basically just "Black Flag GOTY" except it wasn't nearly interesting enough to be GOTY so they gave it this stupid title.

I'm sorry, Ubisoft, but I'm afraid your game has colon cancer. It's terminal.

Next gen consoles only.

Heh heh, that's a good one

/implying console generations and hardware go hand in hand and have nothing to do with intervals of time

Just another DLC that won't sell well.

why are you a Chief Reporter if you can't even report the news correctly, it clearly shows its coming to PC yet you don't mention it in the article, why?

The press release mentioned only the PS4 and the Xbox One. No news of the PC version yet AFAIK regardless of the promo material including PC. Also Amazon has only the PS4 and Xbox One versions of the game for pre-order.

As Qtis already mentioned, the press release sent us all of the info you see in the post, including the pics. All I did was add fonts and boxes and such.
