Ubisoft shared the latest of their upcoming pirate action open-world online naval game Skull & Bones during their E3 2018 press conference with cinematic and gameplay trailers.
It is the Golden Age of Piracy. Renegade captains command the most powerful weapons on Earth: warships. You are a pirate captain who has refused the king’s pardon and sailed from the Caribbean to the Indian Ocean, an untamed frontier full of lavish riches. However, these waters are also a battleground where far-reaching colonial empires, powerful trading corporations, and ruthless pirate gangs clash. In order to survive, you will have to build a lethal fleet, prey upon lucrative trade routes, and ally with other pirates in your endless struggle for supremacy.
Here’s a look at some gameplay footage:
Key Features
- Dominate a Dangerous Open Ocean: A shared open world that reacts as you plunder rich trade routes
