Assassin’s Creed IV lead writer Darby McDevitt believes his team has created “the best pirate game ever made”.

McDevitt was asked if story-driven titles including like Uncharted are considered part of the competition. In response, he said:

“There’s no competition! This is the best pirate game ever made! Maybe even the best Assassin’s Creed game ever made. Maybe Wind Waker HD [laughs] Very different tone, though! But I think there hasn’t really been a good pirate game, and we worked very, very hard to make that economic loop very robust.”

“There are lots of upgrade options, the loop is all tied together with crafting, hunting, harpooning, looting other ships, getting wood, metal and money to upgrade yourself, your ship – you even have a hideout in this game. It’s all tied together very smartly, so that no system feels superfluous, so we hope at the end of the day it’s the best pirate game ever made.”
