Black Flag Resynced Templar Hunt Bug: How to Avoid Losing Progress

A reported Black Flag Resynced bug is tied to leaving a Kingston Templar Hunt chain unfinished and then moving on to other progress. Treat the issue as real enough to avoid risky play, but do not treat any workaround as a guaranteed fix.

Bottom line

If you start the Kingston Templar Hunt chain, finish that chain before moving deep into other missions. Ubisoft has not published a public patch note for this issue in the FrameReady source set yet, so avoid risky progress until a patch is confirmed.

What has been reported

Reports say the problem can block progress or force players to roll back after a Kingston Templar Hunt chain is left unfinished.

  • The reports center on Templar Hunt side content in Kingston.
  • The risky pattern is starting the chain, leaving it unfinished, then returning after other progress.
  • The reported damage is lost time or a rollback, not a verified full save deletion.
  • FrameReady labels this as inferred because the public evidence is reporting and player posts, not a Ubisoft patch note.

Ubisoft confirmation status

Multiple reports say Ubisoft acknowledged the issue and is working on a fix. FrameReady did not find a public Ubisoft patch note confirming a released fix during the July 11 review.

  • Issue state: Acknowledged.
  • Patch state: no public patch available in the FrameReady source set.
  • Official product pages confirm the game is available now, but they do not resolve this bug by themselves.
  • Do not call a community workaround official unless Ubisoft publishes it.

Safe steps players can take

The safe move is to avoid creating the reported quest conflict. Do not delete progress and do not assume a reload is guaranteed to fix every save.

  • If you have not started the Kingston Templar Hunt chain, consider waiting for a patch before starting it.
  • If you have started it, finish the active chain before leaving for unrelated missions.
  • If your platform supports backup saves, back up before continuing risky side content.
  • If you are already blocked, stop making more progress on that save and check Ubisoft support or patch notes first.
