Skull and Bones is a video game developed by Ubisoft Singapore and published by Ubisoft. It was initially envisioned as an expansion of Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag but was later spun off as an independent project due to its initial technology becoming outdated. The game revolves around piracy and naval battles in a fantastical setting during the late 17th century. It was released for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One on February 16, 2024, after multiple delays and developmental difficulties. The game features ship-to-ship combat, looting forts and settlements, and a "Loot Hunt" mode where two groups of players compete to accumulate riches. [1][2]
