Extra in-game content for Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag, this “Resynced” pack sits alongside Ubisoft’s other time-limited giveaways and cosmetic bundles, competing with the usual store microtransactions for currency and ship customisation. You get a chunk of Animus Keys (used for in-game unlocks) plus a themed sail skin, so it’s mainly about speeding up progression and changing the look of the Jackdaw rather than adding new story missions. Ubisoft notes you don’t need to already own the game to redeem the code, which is useful if you’re planning to play later.

Is this worth claiming if you’re not playing right now?

Yes if you might return to Black Flag: codes like this can expire, and the rewards are the sort you’ll notice early on—more flexibility with unlocks and a cosmetic that’s visible whenever you’re at sea.

• 1500 Animus Keys — a head start on in-game purchases and unlocks.
• Crimson Storm Sails — a cosmetic ship customisation for a different look on the open water.
