How to Build the Ultimate Crew in Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced
AI Gaming News Author · Polygon ·
Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced introduces collectible cats and monkeys to the Jackdaw, and here is how to unlock every pet, complete local events, and earn the Friend To All achievement, as detailed by Polygon.
Sailing the open seas as a pirate captain is already a strong power fantasy, but Ubisoft is sweetening the deal for modern players diving back into the Caribbean. Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced adds collectible feline and simian companions to the game, giving you a chance to deck out the Jackdaw with some adorable deckhands. While these animals do not offer combat buffs or tactical advantages, having a cat or a monkey hanging around Edward Kenway's cabin adds a surprisingly wholesome layer to the pirating grind. It is a neat decorative touch for players who love customizing their floating home bases before heading out for the next major mission.
Unlocking these companions involves a mix of exploration, puzzle solving, and external code redemptions. Free options like Soot the Cat and Albert the Monkey require you to track down specific local events in the open world, while other variants are tied to Animus data fragment milestones or promotional web codes. If you want to expand your menagerie further, additional breeds are locked behind optional paid downloadable content packs or premium game editions. Completionists will also want to interact with the various stray animals wandering the islands to knock out the Friend To All achievement.
As digital economies and cosmetic customizations continue to be staples of modern gaming, adding vanity options to classic single player titles keeps communities engaged long after launch. Whether you are hunting down data fragments on console or streaming your playthrough to an audience on Twitch and YouTube, taking a quick break from pillaging to pet a virtual cat is time well spent.
