Playable on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, Amazon Luna, and Windows computers, Skull and Bones allows players to embark on adventures solo or with friends. Developed using the Ubisoft Anvil engine, the game boasts realistic visuals and immersive gameplay. Although initially planned for release on Google Stadia, the game’s availability on the platform was affected by the shutdown of Google Stadia. If you enjoy adventure games and the thrill of naval battles, Skull and Bones promises an exciting experience worth keeping an eye out for.

Skull and Bones Development

Skull and Bones is a video game made by Ubisoft Singapore. They got the idea from the cool naval battles in Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag. They started working on it in 2013, thinking it would be an add-on to Black Flag. But then they decided to make it its own game because the technology they were using got old.

Making the game wasn’t easy. They kept changing their minds about what it should be. At first, they wanted it to happen in the Caribbean, but then they thought it would be cooler in a made-up place called Hyperborea. Eventually, they settled on East Africa and Southeast Asia. They also couldn’t figure out what the gameplay should be like. They tried focusing on exploring the sea and fighting with ships, but they ended up scrapping that idea. Instead, they went with a survival game style, kind of like Rust.

The development process had lots of problems. People had different ideas, managers had trouble keeping things on track, and the game didn’t have a clear direction. Because of all this, they spent way more money than they planned – over $120 million! They first showed off Skull and Bones in 2017. They said it would be available for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One, with special stuff for PlayStation 4 Pro and Xbox One X. They also announced a program called “Keepers of the Code” to get feedback from players.

But the game kept getting delayed. It was supposed to come out in 2018, then 2019, then 2020, and then it got pushed back again and again. It finally came out in 2024 after many delays.Even though it took a long time to make and cost a lot of money, Ubisoft said it’s worth $70 because it’s a big game with a lot of extra stuff to do, even though they don’t think they’ll make all their money back.
