  • Ubisoft Announces Skull & Bones; It's Like Black Flag without the Boring Bits

    Today, Ubisoft announced Skull & Bones, a game where you are a pirate. It's essentially a multiplayer version of Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag without the boring Assassin's Creed part. A drawback, at least for me, is that it seems like it's only going to be a multiplayer game.

    You can sign up now for the beta by visiting the Skull & Bones website. The final game isn't slated to be released until Fall 2018.
    It is the Golden Age of Piracy. A time when renegade captains command the most powerful weapons on Earth, warships. You are an insatiable, upstart pirate captain who refused the King’s pardon. Having nothing to lose, you sailed from the Caribbean to the Indian Ocean, an exotic and untamed frontier full of lavish riches.

    However, these rich and idyllic waters are also a battleground where far-reaching colonial empires, powerful trading corporations, and ruthless pirate gangs are fiercely competing for their share of these valuable treasures.

    During your journey to become the ultimate pirate kingpin, you will build a fleet of ships you can customize, prey upon lucrative trade routes, and take down rival pirate captains, memorable characters or players. In order to survive in this ruthless ocean, you will have to ally with other pirate captains to form the most influential pirate gang, becoming too big to fail and joining the endless struggle for supremacy of the Indian Ocean.

    Ubisoft released three videos for this today. The videos include a cinematic trailer, a multiplayer and PvP gameplay video, and a "what you need to know" video.
