To go from underdog to pirate king, you must master sailing and naval combat while building powerful alliances no one can take down.

SAIL INTO AN OPEN WORLD OF MULTIPLAYER CONFLICT
• Test your pirate skills by competing against both powerful factions and rival players for the riches of the Indian Ocean.
• It’s your choice: hunt solo as a lone wolf, or team up with a pirate gang and dominate across different game modes.

EXPERIENCE NAVAL COMBAT REDEFINED
• Become the ultimate pirate with Skull & Bones' RPG-like progression system. Choose the ship best suited to your playstyle & upgrade it, using the loot you have plundered. Make the best choices for your equipment, weapons & crew.
• Harness the innovative wind system in order to  approach combat your way with a wide number of tactical options at your disposal.

FORTUNE FAVORS THE BOLD
• As you venture forth, you’ll discover the Indian Ocean is never tranquil and that the PvPvE shared world of Skull & Bones is systemic and ever-evolving.  
• Fortunes will give insight into changes in Weather, Conflict, and even upcoming Cataclysms.

Skull and Bones: E3 2017 Multiplayer and PvP Gameplay | Ubisoft

This gameplay video depicts two teams of players in a 5v5 multiplayer mode called Loot Hunt, which gives us a look at a few ships. The powerful frigate, the close quarters brigantine (with a nasty battering ram), and the long-range sloop of war. While there's a lot of ship-on-ship combat, the goal here is to collect treasure scattered around the ocean play area.

What sets Skull & Bones apart from Sea of Thieves? Being more of an action-RPG and having enemies who can actually put up a decent fight, for starters, going by a new gameplay explain-o-trailer for Ubisoft’s upcoming shared-world multiplayer pirate shipfight sandbox action-RPG. It gives a broad overview of customising your ship’s loadout, ship class special abilities, engaging in shipstealth to slip past watchful NPCs, plundering booty, teaming up to fight real big ships, backstabbing piratepals, and making your pirate ship just look real cool.

Skull & Bones is on our release radar with hints of possible release in March 2020; if all goes well in the Ubisoft camp. Closed Beta is already underway to make sure the game is the best possible experience for everyone. We are currently waiting for our own beta key and will keep you all posted on the upcoming title.
