Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag is a game that works in a way where if essential files like .forge (even if they are never used) are not exactly what the executables require, it will be practically impossible to make the build functional unless modifications are made. In order to avoid creating several prototype files that are unplayable, it was decided to put all these builds in a single article. It is worth noting that a prototype can exist in several devkits that may have a chance of completing the incomplete build; however, until these builds are not functional, they will remain here.

Note 1: Keep in mind that multiplayer versions will not be playable for obvious reasons, however, if they are not corrupted and thus allow you to access the menu, they are not considered "unplayable".

Note2: In edits, to avoid the download links being moved to the end of the page, use only "Edit source".

These unplayable prototypes are the ones mentioned below.
