Which Assassin’s Creed game follows Edward Kenway, a pirate in the early 18th century?

Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag follows Edward Kenway, a pirate in the early 18th century.

Released in 2013, Black Flag is set primarily in the Caribbean during the Golden Age of Piracy. Edward is a Welsh privateer who becomes involved with both the Assassin Brotherhood and the Templar Order while pursuing wealth and reputation. He is also the father of Haytham Kenway and the grandfather of Ratonhnhaké:ton, the protagonist of Assassin’s Creed III.

The game emphasizes naval exploration, ship combat, boarding actions, and visits to Caribbean ports. Edward’s ship, the Jackdaw, can be upgraded with new weapons and equipment. Historical pirates including Blackbeard, Anne Bonny, and Charles Vane appear in the campaign.

Assassin’s Creed III takes place mainly during the American Revolution, while Rogue follows Shay Cormac. Black Flag’s maritime focus makes it distinct from both games.
