Just yesterday we got a look at some exciting gameplay footage from the upcoming video game Grand Theft Auto V, and today Ubisoft has unveiled an extended look at this fall’s sequel Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag.  The game moves the series to a naval-based setting, as players control a protagonist named Edward Kenway, a British privateer-turned-pirate.  This new gameplay trailer shows off the fantastic features of the game, as you are the captain of your own ship, the Jackdaw, and you spend your days hunting for treasure and commandeering other ships.  Assassin’s Creed III's naval features are expanded upon, as you wield a greater amount of control in not only bringing down another ship, but also navigating how you board it and what you do with its remaining crew members.  It's also necessary to upgrade the Jackdaw as you go along, and the ship is described as the second most important character in the game.

Hit the jump to watch the trailer.  Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag will be released on PlayStation 3, Wii U, and Xbox 360 on October 29th.
