Possible AC5 location (France) analyzed by a fan.
This guy also predicted the AC3 and 4 location before its release and he even got the attention of devs.

Anyway, its a good read to anyone interested. or lets just wait until end of feb or early march for the reveal.

Much bleh
Very not interesting article in my opinion, and thats not because the writer seems to share and mimic most of my opinions that I had a year ago

Spoiler!

[RANT]yes I'm big headed and always right obviously, like did I call french revolution mhm, did I call ac3 location back when ACR was released Mhm, does anyone care, nope. Its assassins creed, most of us will buy it what ever the setting, then we will complain and say that it was not as good as the last game and then throw more money at it and hope it gets better
I'm more interested to see how they will introduce Co-op play and multi ancestor games that are faster passed with not one central ancestor that you play as but instead 3 or 4 in order to tie up lose ends and well a lot of people say it won't work, I find it interesting that whenever I post publicly about it I get almostly instantly dismissed by multiple devs from different continents and dev teams being told various excuses as to why I am wrong, but they don't respond to other speculation of future game settings,
Its easy to write an article that conclusively proves the next setting to be France, Japan, Egypt, South/Middle America (Not the USA)
I think its very clear that all of these locations will be visited via the animus at some point,

Rant over

Ok so I read her entire article and most of it is just highlighting hints at all possible future locations but focusing primarily on IV: Black Flag and not cross referencing any of that information with earlier games other then once or twice she mentions III but does not mention any of the hints hidden in I II B R or their DLCs and greatly ignores most of the hints hidden in III, and then immediately dismisses all the hints at Egypt or Asia saying they are too obvious and they are just as obvious as revolutionary France,
So my review of her review is that her evidence does not prove very conclusive and a lot of her comments can easily be passed off using the same excuses she uses for Asia or Egypt and they could actually be pointing into wards VI and not V
But I don't perticularly care where in the past as its the modern day story and the first civilisation mythology that I keep coming back for

Assassin's Creed® IV Black Flag™: Blackbeard: The Lost Journal - Hardcover







Few moments in history have proven as timelessly fascinating as the lawless Golden Age of Piracy, which was largely played out in the Caribbean of the sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries. In this time of rebellion, fortune, intrigue, and adventure, Blackbeard stands as one of the most fearsome captains to have ever sailed the seas. Now, as the latest historical figure to take center stage in the Assassin’s Creed® franchise, Blackbeard joins the ranks of Edward Kenway—father of Haytham Kenway and grandfather of Connor—as they navigate troubled island waters and carve out their destinies.

Thoughtfully crafted to resemble an authentic pirate artifact, this illustrated journal delivers a unique insider’s view into the world of the game through fascinating entries that provide a firsthand account of the day-to-day lives of the characters. This one-of-a-kind graphic novel — featuring beautifully etched illustrations and portraits, a wanted poster, removable Letter of Marque, torn pages ripped out by Blackbeard himself, and more — brings the bold worlds of Blackbeard and Kenway strikingly to life.
