Are There Still Awaiting Souls? Skull and Bones to be Offered at the Onset of 2024 Following Prolonged Malady Onset

The legendary game that was announced in 2017 but has yet to be released, Skull and Bones, has once again been brought up in Ubisoft’s semi-annual financial report for 2023-2024. It has been revealed that the game is being pushed for a release within the first month of next year, after facing long-standing issues that have caused multiple delays. The most recent delay pushed the release date from November 22, 2022, to an indefinite timeframe.

Furthermore, Ubisoft has also acknowledged the delayed development of other games, preventing the release of any new AAA titles in the final quarter of this fiscal year. However, Ubisoft did not specify which games were affected by this delay, with Star Wars: Outlaws being the only AAA game that has provided a glimpse of its gameplay.

Skull and Bones recently had its closed beta released just last week, bringing the game one step closer to its playable state. In this game, players assume the role of pirate adventurers, sailing through an expansive sea, with multi-player capabilities. The game is built upon the ship mechanics in Assassin’s Creed IV Black Flag and developed by Ubisoft Singapore. However, an official release date has yet to be announced.
