Every owner can grab the Jackdaw's Crimson Storm sails and 1,500 Animus keys with one code before the window closes.

Every owner can grab the Jackdaw’s Crimson Storm sails and 1,500 Animus keys with one code before the window closes.

Ubisoft is handing every Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced owner a free gift bundle, sent out as both a thank-you for pushing the pirate remake past two million sales on day one and a make-good for the rough spots at launch. The package drops the Crimson Storm sails onto the Jackdaw and adds 1,500 Animus keys you can spend in the in-game Exchange.

Quick answer: Redeem the code ACBF-PHGN-SYBJ-RTRF while signed in to your Ubisoft Connect account at redeem.ubisoft.com. The rewards attach to your account and appear in-game shortly after.


What the free code gives you

The bundle is the same for everyone who owns the game, regardless of platform. There is no watch time, no purchase, and no season pass involved. You just enter the code once.

Even if the sails aren’t your thing, the Animus keys alone make the code worth claiming, since they carry real value in the Exchange.


How to redeem the Crimson Storm sails and Animus keys code

Open the Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced code redemption page on Ubisoft’s website. This is where the code is registered to your account, not inside the game itself.
Sign in with the Ubisoft Connect account you use to play the game. The rewards link to whatever account you log in with, so use the correct one if you have more than a single profile.
Enter the code ACBF-PHGN-SYBJ-RTRF exactly as written, including the dashes, then confirm. The whole process takes a few seconds.
ACBF-PHGN-SYBJ-RTRF
Launch Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced. The Crimson Storm sails and 1,500 Animus keys should be waiting on your account, though it can take a short while for them to show up in-game.

How to confirm the rewards worked

The redemption page shows a confirmation once the code is accepted, and the reward is tied to your account from that point on. In-game, check your Jackdaw’s sail customization options for the Crimson Storm design, and open the Exchange to see your Animus key balance climb by 1,500.

If the items don’t appear right away, give it a little time and restart the game before assuming something went wrong. Rewards delivered through account redemption often lag behind by a few minutes.


Why the reward exists and how long you have

The remake sailed past two million sales within its first day, and Ubisoft framed the giveaway as thanks for that milestone and for players sticking with the game while early problems get patched. The team said it is following feedback closely and working on fixes for issues like localization and voiceover problems in some regions, plus a 30fps cutscene bug on PC.

Producer Justin Ng described the bundle as available for “a limited redemption period” without giving an exact end date. No closing date has been confirmed, so treat this as a claim-now offer rather than something you can leave for later. Once you have entered the code, the sails and keys stay on your account permanently.

Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced is a full remake of the 2013 pirate adventure, rebuilt on the Anvil engine with new story content, revised combat and stealth, ship and base upgrades, pets, and a photo mode. It’s available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC through the Ubisoft Store, Steam, and the Epic Games Store, so the same free code applies no matter where you play.
