Ubisoft has announced that its upcoming pirate game, Skull and Bones, will now release on February 16th, 2024. To celebrate this announcement, the French company has shared its TGA 2023 trailer, as well as a gameplay deep dive video.
Skull and Bones lets you play your way, starting as a nobody and working your way up to become the most feared pirate. You can create different kinds of ships, and make surprising alliances. You’ll also be able to join exciting naval battles to beat the odds and cause chaos on the seas.
In August 2022, Ubisoft claimed that the PC version will support Ray Tracing Global Illumination (RTGI). Now I don’t know whether this is still the case. After all, this game has been in development hell for a while. Furthermore, Skull and Bones will support both NVIDIA DLSS and AMD FSR at launch.
It’s also worth noting that Skull and Bones is available for purchase on Epic Games Store and Ubisoft Connect. Right now, there isn’t any Steam store page, so we can assume that it won’t be available on Valve’s store at launch. This falls in line with all of the latest Ubisoft releases.

If it have denuvo, it really wont be true pirate game…
hmmm the game has already been delayed 6 times. Will it get delayed again?
Not one of the ones that’s looking forward to playing the game but I have to wonder how many are left that still do care about a real release.
ubishit? Edgy…
That said, don’t like Ubisoft much but they have done some great games, with terrible launcher and other decisions that negatively impact their legitimate customer base.
Ironically one of the only good trailers on The Game Awards.
There were tons of mobile games, tons of indie that didn’t look very fun.
And Kojima the talentless hack was there of course, to present his latest walking simulator.
Skull and Bones was the only game that looked half-decent in the 4 hour awards slogfest.
Like fr, how tf does it take so long, when they already have black flag, all they had to do is do multiplayer portion of that and expand on ship system
obviously because black flag from woke perspective is problematic and have too much toxic masculinity and must be fixed to be suited for modern audience first before they add multiplayer to it.
I still don’t get a solid feel for how involved are the different elements or activities shown in the Deep Dive video.
It feels like the trailers are concealing that they only have half decent naval combat where you can’t board the other ships, extensive ship customization, and they added a bunch of filler shallow activities to plump it up if you ask me.
Black pirates mostly spending their time getting drunk and messy around. Female ship captains running aground in stormy weather due to incompetence. Actually quite realistic. Joobisoft giving gen-Z a great history lesson.
nearly 7 years ago bro. Absolutely INSANE!! Expect another delay, mark my words.
its gonna be their finnest IP to date, NOT lol
Are they serious right now?
So, first, GTA VI, and now Skulls and Bones putting black people literally everywhere in the trailer?
SERIOUSLY?
What, it’s now required by law or something?
I mean, if they want white MEN to disappear from the face of the earth completely, I’d rather they come out and say it once and for all.
On the other hand, white women don’t have anything to worry about, cos developers sure LOOOOVE to fantasize about us being pounded in every way possible by black men. We have a bright future in the gaming industry.
Having the opportunity to read everything in one place is a delight for me; this is my very first, brief visit.
