Just in time for the holidays, Ubisoft is going to give two of its biggest titles on PC. The video game company is giving away "World in Conflict" and "Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag" for free in celebration of the two's big anniversaries.

"Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag" was released in 2013.

The title is said to be based on a true part of an iconic era that will delight fans and new players.

Here, gamers will play the role of Edward Kenway. Edward is a pirate who is trying to make a name for himself. He will be doing this by sailing his ship on the Caribbean seas, searching for plunderers, enemies, and diving deep into the ocean to look for lost treasures.
