This new Assassins Creeed is more or less set in the Carribeans, with Connors father, Haytham Kenway's father. So Connors Grandfather named Edward Kenway. I think hes more of an Ezio kinda guy. It's about 60% on land and 40% on sea, your home and trophy room will probably be your ship. It should be released on October?
Instead of Desmond, the modern day will be centered around the players themselves who act as a 'research analysts' working at Abstergo Industries and reliving the memories of Edward Kenway through the Animus

Dual-wielding weapons has been implemented with Edward being able to have four pistols and be able use them all together, chaining up to four gunshots into his normal attacks to take down more enemies. Full-on underwater combat system is also developed for Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag including animals such as sharks.
Players will also be able to upgrade Edward Kenway's vessel the Jackdaw with new weapons and abilities through pillaging, taking over enemy ships and completing missions. The crew of the Jackdaw can also be upgraded with new outfits allowing for even more customization. The game will so have different enemy archetypes at sea that all behave in vastly different ways and require you to have different upgrades to deal with them.
Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag's combat has been upgraded to include free aiming. With the previous installments relying on the game's built-in auto aim, in Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag players will be able to just aim and fire, like in any other third-person shooter.
About 60% of the game will take place on land. Players can explore 50 locations ranging from fisherman villages, plantations, jungles, forts, islands, Mayan ruins and exotic Coconut Islands. Other activities include hunting, harpooning and exploring underwater environments. The game aims to blend between its land and
aquatic experiences seamlessly, to the point where players can simply dive off of his ship, swim to the shore and explore the land.
