📋 About This Mod
The outfit this mod replaces requires the Gold Edition of Assassin's Creed Black Flag in order to be obtainable, as Gold Edition unlocks all of the ULC content. Once installed, you can find it in a chest in the treasure room of Great Inagua's mansion.
Replaces the Haytham Kenway's Overcoat outfit with Haytham Kenway's real overcoat, as seen in Assassin's Creed Rogue. For whatever reason, in the base game it's just Edward's default robe dyed red and blue, despite literally being called an overcoat and its description claiming it was passed down to Haytham. I don't really know why they did this, probably to save time considering that 90% of the game's outfits are recolours, but regardless this mod fixes that by replacing it with Haytham Kenway's outfit from Rogue. This mod also fixes issues that may be present in other mods that add Haytham's outfit, such as the interior of Haytham's cape being black or his glitchy hidden blade showing. In these cases, I've removed Haytham's hidden blade completely and replaced it with Edward's hidden blades, while I corrected the interior of his cape so that it's now red as-intended.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Directly addresses a lore-breaking recolor, giving Haytham his proper Rogue look.
- Lightweight cosmetic change—no gameplay impact, just visual authenticity.
- Fresh update (August 2025) means it's likely compatible with current game versions.
⚠️ Cons
- Small niche mod with only 13 endorsements—community feedback is limited.
- Only affects one outfit; if you wanted more Haytham variants, this isn't it.
For Assassin's Creed Rogue players who care about character accuracy and want Haytham to look like his Rogue self instead of a palette-swapped Edward. Skip if you're fine with the original recolor or want broader outfit changes.
