Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced: 30 Treasure Maps Guide

Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag Resynced sends players back into the Caribbean with a familiar pirate mechanic: treasure maps that lead to buried chests. This time, there’s more to dig up than in the original, with 30 treasures total tied to those map finds.

The key requirement stays the same—treasure doesn’t show up just because you walk up to it. You must first locate the corresponding map, and some locations only become reachable after you push far enough through the story.

Quick facts

There are 30 treasures to find using this system.

Update dated 20 July added images for the “yellowed” map location and filled in German labels for the final rewards.

Restoring and “recovered” treasure maps

Not every treasure hunt starts with a pristine card. Black Flag Resynced also includes map recovery entries—items that need restoration before they can be used to track down the chest they describe.

In the list, those map states include “Verdaute” (digested), “Zerfledderte” (shredded), “Verwitterte” (weathered), “Vergilbte” (yellowed), and “Erhaltene” (preserved) maps. As noted in the 20 July update, additional images were added specifically for the “yellowed” map location, and German naming was expanded for the last rewards.

Treasures that connect to ship upgrades

Six additional treasures are singled out because they’re connected to “ultimate plans” for improving the ship. The named entries are Mariguana Island (Andreas Island), Tortuga (Matanzas), Petite Caverne (Tulum), Cayman Sound (Petite Caverne), Santanillas (San Juan), and Ambergris Key (Misteriosa).

Tips before you start digging

Plan your route around story access first: several locations in the map list aren’t available from the start. Once you’re able to reach more areas, unlocking as many fast-travel points as possible becomes especially valuable, since treasure hunting pulls you across different corners of the world map.

Finally, keep an eye on trophy requirements—some of the treasures in this system are also used to satisfy trophy objectives.
