Back in 2017, we recall that Ubisoft announced that pirate adventures are waiting for you in the new game Skull & Bones, but since then we have been hearing news of development problems, as it was said that it has been reworked from scratch several times.
In 2019, the release of the game was postponed and will not be present at E3 2019, and Ubisoft remained silent about setting a release date until yesterday when it shared its financial report with us.
The company’s chief financial officer, Frédérick Duguet, confirmed that the development process has been progressing at a steady pace since it was announced that the Skull & Bones game was completely redeveloped and since zero in 2020, and it will be released in the next fiscal year, which begins in April 2022 and ends March 31, 2023.
It is a very promising new title that focuses primarily on multiplayer, so it is very consistent with our strategy to bring team competition and co-op first in a large open world, with a wonderful and engaging imagination.
This is of course a long development time for this game, but we are very pleased with the new technical direction and the progress the game has made so far.
In 2020, a media report spread revealing the new direction of Skull and Bones and its relationship to Fortnite, 5 years ago, and when the game was first revealed, Ubisoft said that it would allow players to discover the Indian Ocean individually or with a group of players within a single-player story game, But then, specifically in 2020, it was announced that the game would change direction to become a Destiny-style direct services game, whose support will continue for a long time. It is said that in the game you will start with a small boat and then collect items and money from tasks to build your ship. It will contain survival game elements.
