Which Assassin’s Creed game follows Edward Kenway, a pirate in the Caribbean?

Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag follows Edward Kenway, a pirate in the Caribbean.

Released in 2013, Black Flag is set primarily during the Golden Age of Piracy in the early eighteenth century. Edward Kenway is a Welsh privateer who becomes involved with both the Assassins and Templars while pursuing wealth and a better life. His actions also connect him to the wider Kenway family featured in the series.

The game emphasizes naval exploration, ship-to-ship combat, boarding actions, and island travel. Players visit locations including Havana, Kingston, and Nassau, while encountering historical pirates such as Blackbeard, Charles Vane, and Anne Bonny.

Edward is the grandfather of Ratonhnhaké:ton, also known as Connor, the protagonist of Assassin’s Creed III. Black Flag is therefore linked directly to that game’s family storyline, but its Caribbean setting and pirate focus make it structurally different from the earlier American Revolution entry.
