Flashback

Skull & Bones has been in development for about a decade now, and with each new trailer, gamers' scepticism only grows. Nobody expected the game to make it to beta testing, but Ubisoft showed a fair share of persistence and proved that its ship won't sink so easily.

And even though testers refused to play Skull & Bones, Ubisoft continues to push the game through to release, whatever it apparently turns out to be.

The game is due out by 1 April 2024 on PS5, Xbox Series and PC, but that, as they say, is not certain.
