Skull And Bones Will Thrive In Year 2!

Story Highlight
  • Another year of support for Skull and Bones has been confirmed, with Ubisoft citing ambitious plans for the title.
  • The team has teased grittier cosmetics, reworked seasonal content, and more for the second year.
  • Ubisoft has also thanked the players for sticking with the game for a whole year.

Ubisoft’s Skull and Bones became the subject of many discussions last year. After seemingly failing to garner a huge player base and rapidly losing its value, the game was expected to fail in the hyper-competitive live-service market.

To everyone’s surprise, Ubisoft’s pirate adventure seems to have weathered the storm, recently celebrating its first anniversary. As the team prepares for year-two content, it has teased ambitious plans for Skull and Bones.

Why it matters: Ubisoft is currently facing a financial crisis. Despite the ongoing challenges, the team is choosing to support its biggest live-service investment, something most fans will appreciate.

According to a new letter from the Skull and Bones producer, the entire team is dedicated to improving the experience for existing and new players. The letter gives fans a small glimpse at everything planned in upcoming updates, including grittier cosmetics.

We have very ambitious plans for the year and beyond.

The letter also teases that Skull and Bones will be supported beyond the second year. As the team navigates these years, it has been confirmed changes will be made to the seasonal content in meaningful ways.

While details on this particular aspect remain limited for now, the letter teases more extensive seasons that go beyond existing content updates. Moreover, changes to systems like inventory management will be introduced in the near future.
