Ubisoft’s continued support for Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced shows how strongly the pirate adventure has connected with players after surpassing the publisher’s sales expectations. The next patch is not the major New Game Plus expansion many fans want, but Update 1.0.7 will add a small community-requested activity, more customization options, and a broad collection of technical fixes when it launches on September 1.
Update 1.0.7 release time and download sizes
Update 1.0.7 will become available at 7 a.m. PT (10 a.m. ET) on September 1. Ubisoft lists different download sizes depending on the platform: 1.53 GB on PlayStation 5, 3.86 GB through Ubisoft Connect, and 15.26 GB on Xbox Series X|S. The patch is relatively modest in scope compared with a content expansion, although its fix list covers gameplay, quests, presentation, accessibility, audio, and stability.
A new rescue and more control over Edward’s appearance
The most noticeable addition is a rescue opportunity involving a lonely dog found on an unnamed island. Players who locate the animal can bring it back to the Hideout, giving the Caribbean a small new story beat shaped by community feedback. Ubisoft has also added an option to hide Edward’s pistols, extending the existing ability to conceal his blowpipe. Players can separately disable the visual effects attached to trinket perks, which should make stealth-focused outfits less conspicuous without removing the perks themselves.
The patch targets ships, stealth, quests, and crashes
The update addresses numerous edge cases across the campaign and open world. Fixes include ships spawning outside the map, enemies failing to appear correctly in Eagle Vision, problems during boarding, animals behaving unpredictably, and Edward becoming trapped in animation or stealth states. Ubisoft is also correcting issues involving Principe fast travel, fort completion and region visibility, Photo Mode, Kenway’s Fleet, the Store, and several crash scenarios, including a rare PlayStation 5 crash after entering an out-of-bounds area. Other changes cover missing sound effects, captions, menu narration, color-blind settings, HDR on Steam Deck, graphical loading, and quest-specific progression bugs.
New Game Plus remains under development
New Game Plus is still absent from Update 1.0.7, despite being one of the most requested additions for Black Flag Resynced. Ubisoft has told the community that work on the feature is continuing and that it will share more information when there is a concrete update. The publisher has not provided a release window, so players should not treat September 1 as an indication that the mode is close to launch. Ubisoft has also hinted at further additions to the world without identifying what they are.
Key points
- Update 1.0.7 launches September 1 at 7 a.m. PT and 10 a.m. ET.
- Players can rescue a dog and bring it to the Hideout.
- Edward’s pistols and trinket perk visual effects can now be hidden.
- New Game Plus is still being developed and has no confirmed release date.

Expert View
Update 1.0.7 signals a maintenance-focused support strategy rather than a major content push. The dog rescue is a meaningful example of Ubisoft responding to player feedback, while the visual toggles address a practical concern for fans who want cleaner stealth presentation. However, New Game Plus remains the feature most likely to influence long-term replayability. Until Ubisoft confirms its timing, the patch should be viewed as a quality-of-life update that keeps the Caribbean active rather than a new phase for the game.
