Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced: Life In The Pirate Republic

Assassin’s Creed Black Flag recreates New Providence and its capital, Nassau, in gorgeous detail.

What was life like in the Pirate Republic?

Matt Lewis is rejoined by pirate historian Dr Rebecca Simon to answer these questions and more!
