The Sea Of Thieves We Wanted: Ubisoft's Skull and Bones Sets Sail With Beta
By Jesse Collins ·
The much-anticipated Skull and Bones brought a ton of information during Ubisoft's E3 2018 presentation and they intend to conquer the seven seas.
Justin Farren, Creative Director of Skull & Bones, came out on stage after the story trailer ended and confirmed customization, multiplayer, and gameplay for the anticipated pirate game. This is clearly more than just Assassin's Creed: Black Flag, but has a lot of inspiration from their previous pirate game.
With different things affecting gameplay, like "cataclysm", "weather", and "conflict", the game is bound to be ever-changing as players face off. The way players play is up to them, though, as they can ally, rival, deceive, or even head-on ram their enemies. "Will you fight or will you ally?" Farren asks during his presentation.
Customization includes things like the helm, figurehead, and even the style of the wheel on the ship, as well as other things. Every ship is different and is catered to the play styles of whoever's ship it is.
At the end, the beta was announced for the game at Ubisoft's official website. For more competitive news and Ubisoft, check out what they have in store for Rainbow Six Seige.
