Skull and Bones
Ubisoft’s long awaited pirate game Skull and Bones is just about two months away after multiple delays and workplace culture issues, and at this point, it’s a question of if the game is going to be any good after all this drama. The game originated as a spin-off to Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag, which had pirate ship segments in the midst of its usual assassin antics, and they were a surprise hit for fans of the series. So Skull and Bones could, in theory, offer a place for those nautical adventures without having to shoehorn them into Ubisoft’s kill-’em-up franchise. We’ll see if any of that comes to fruition when it launches on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S on March 9.
