The gaming world is abuzz with speculation about a potential Nintendo Direct, and a recent retail listing has ignited excitement among fans. The listing, from French retailer E.Leclerc, suggests that the Switch 2 will receive an Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced-themed 'Advanced Pro Wireless Controller' on September 22, 2026. This has led to whispers of a possible game release, despite the absence of Black Flag Resynced on the Switch 2's initial launch in July 2026.
What makes this rumor particularly intriguing is the inclusion of an image of the controller adorned with Black Flag imagery. The controller's presence on the retailer's page seems to confirm its legitimacy. However, the absence of Black Flag Resynced on the Switch 2's release is puzzling, especially considering the smooth performance of Assassin's Creed Shadows on the console.
The speculation intensifies with the potential announcement of a Nintendo Direct on September 10th, hinted at by a social media post from Ubisoft. This timing coincides with the rumored release of Black Flag Resynced, leaving fans eagerly awaiting news. If the game doesn't materialize, the themed controller's production appears bizarre and potentially cruel.
