Why did Ubisoft leave out Switch 2?

Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced skips Switch 2 for now

Ubisoft has positioned Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag Resynced as coming to PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S, while it is skipping Nintendo Switch 2 “for now.” Multiple posts in the feed frame this as an official platform decision made after leaks and earlier speculation.

What Ubisoft says the game is focused on

Alongside the platform plan, Ubisoft has also emphasized that the remake is meant to be a solo, character-driven adventure and “not an RPG,” which helps explain why the project’s design and targeting may not align with a handheld-style release strategy.

Why the Switch 2 question matters

Switch 2 is one of the major growth targets for Ubisoft’s broader lineup, and the feed includes related Ubisoft/Nintendo positioning—so when a headline remaster like Black Flag Resynced lands without a Switch 2 version, it affects expectations for:

• Port cadence: Players may wonder whether Ubisoft will revisit Switch 2 later through an additional release window.
• Remake preservation: The absence means Switch 2 owners won’t get the “rebuilt from the ground up” version at launch, even if the original game remains available.

What remains uncertain

The feed doesn’t provide a timeline for whether a Switch 2 version will arrive later; it only states that the remake is skipping Switch 2 at this time.

In short: Ubisoft has confirmed the remake’s main platform lineup and it does not include Switch 2—meaning those players will need to wait or follow any later announcement.
