There are many Letters in the form of messages in bottles in the newest launch of Assassin's Creed, that you can find and read. They are scattered along the shorelines of the islands throughout the game. In this guide, you'll find the locations of all Letters in Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced.
Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced Letters Explained
There are many Letters scattered throughout Black Flag Resynced. These are collectibles that give you more information about the game's lore and history.

So unlike other busywork collectibles in past Assassin's Creed games, Letters actually reward you with narrative context. Some of them hint at the backstory of side characters you meet on outposts. Others explain why certain settlements exist in the first place. It's a small touch, but it makes the world feel a lot more lived-in.
They're also easy to grab. Most of them sit right on a beach near a Viewpoint, so if you're already climbing towers to reveal the map (which you should be doing anyway), you're never more than a short swim or walk away from a Letter.

Tips for Hunting Down Every Letter
- Reveal Viewpoints for fast travel first. Almost every Letter sits within a short sail or walk of a Viewpoint, so climbing those towers early makes tracking down Letters way faster.
- Check shorelines, not open water. You won't find Letters bobbing in the middle of the ocean. They wash up on beaches and small, detached islands, so keep your ship close to land while exploring.
- Look for visual landmarks. Shipwrecks, broken rowboats, haystacks, and bent palm trees show up again and again near Letter locations. Once you notice the pattern, spotting them gets a lot easier.
Letters in Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced are considered a Secret Collectible and won't earn you a trophy, but they add a surprising amount of depth to the world if you take the time to read them. Grab a few during your next voyage and see how much they change the way you look at the story.
