Although Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced remains faithful to the original game and this remake doesn't feature the RPG elements found in recent entries, such as multiple pieces of gear with defense stats and special effects, it does retain a variety of different weapons that you can obtain, equip and customize. Weapons have different attack levels and attributes. Here you'll find out how to obtain them all, along with the stats of each weapon.

Bear in mind that we haven't included DLC weapons or those obtained through special editions, only weapons that can be unlocked for free through gameplay.

How to customize weapon appearance

You can give any weapon the appearance of another. For example, if you like the stats of a particular sword but think it looks ugly, simply apply the skin of another weapon you own. To do this, open the inventory, hover over the weapon you want to customize and press the "Customize" button to change its appearance.

Whenever you obtain a new weapon, you'll also unlock it as a skin that can be applied to any other weapon.
