Skull and Bones Has Less Than 1 Million Players – Rumor

Ubisoft’s second $70 game, Skull and Bones, has seen its price reduced significantly less than three weeks after its release.

Ubisoft has said the recently released Skull and Bones has achieved “record player engagement” since launch, although it has yet to announce how many copies it’s sold or how many players it has.

Ubisoft’s Skull and Bones finally launched earlier this month after years of delays and development issues, but the online pirate game was, predictably enough, met with less-than-stellar reviews upon release. On the commercial front, the full extent of how the game is performing isn’t yet clear, but at least in terms of average engagement per user, it seems to be doing well enough.

Skull and Bones, the oft-delayed pirate game from Ubisoft that finally arrived earlier this month following almost a decade of development, has released its first season of post-launch content on Xbox, PlayStation, and PC — introducing, among other things, new world events, new contracts and bounties, plus a battle-pass-style progression track.

After many years of development and countless delays, Skull and Bones has finally arrived. While the main danger you’ll face in the game are other ships, the ocean itself can also send you down to Davy Jones’ locker. While exploring the open ocean area in the middle of Skull and Bones large Indian Ocean map, the seas will often get rough, and occasionally serve up a particularly large “rogue wave,” which can immediately sink your boat if you don’t handle it correctly. This can be a bit panic-inducing, and you’ll probably go down the first time you encounter one, but if you know what to do they’re not actually that dangerous. Here’s how to survive a rogue wave with your ship intact.

After many years of development and countless delays, Skull and Bones has finally arrived.

After many years of development and countless delays, Skull and Bones has finally arrived. One somewhat odd thing you’ll quickly realize when playing the game is that your ship has a stamina bar that determines how long you’re able to sail at top speed and whether you can brace against incoming attacks. Stamina can honestly be a bit frustrating, but there are ways to manage it, so it doesn’t have to be a big issue. Scroll on down for everything you need to know about stamina…

After a long voyage filled with delays, Ubisoft’s Skull and Bones is finally out. The multiplayer pirate game sailed through troubling waters in order to get to where it is today, but its launch hasn’t been smooth sailing. It’s earned a mixed reaction so far, despite its combat and visuals impressing. Those highlights couldn’t turn the tides of criticism against it, as some reviewers aren’t as impressed with its narrative and repetitive missions.

After many years of development and countless delays, Skull and Bones has finally arrived. Ubisoft’s new open-world pirate game is very much a live service exercise, which means the game features a somewhat baffling array of different currencies – no less than six of them.
