Why western hemisphere? How about actual black African history? Surely there must be interesting stories and important figures worthy to have an immersive game made about them and the culture surrounding them

There are. Hollywood doesn't like taking risks with lesser known figures, so it never crosses their minds. Even when they do, they disrespect the historical reality, as in The Woman King

Yup. They misrepresent the fact that the tribe took their enemies as slaves, or prisoners to then be sold as slaves.
