How to Sign Up For the Skull and Bones Beta

If you’re like me, you’re probably chomping at the bit to get your hands on the latest pirate offering from Ubisoft, with their reveal of the upcoming game Skull and Bones. Conquering the seven seas is on the top of our to-do list, so here’s all the information you need to know to get a chance at trying the game out before the official release.

The beta itself did not get a start / finish date, unfortunately, though it is possible to register your interest in the game by heading to the official website, here.

The game itself has been a long time coming, with delays pushing back the release date until at least 2019. In a development update post, Creative Director Justin A. Farren revealed that “Here in Singapore, this is our biggest game yet, and it is a project filled with immense passion. Many of us have been working on it for the last few years, and want to make this game right in order to achieve our ambition to deliver the ultimate pirate game set to thrill players at launch and for years to come.”

“We also are building a world rich in lore and stories, where you’ll come across memorable characters and have the canvas to create your own stories.” Farren would go on to say, “We aspire to create a game where the act of attacking and robbing ships at sea -- and where every single decision you make -- requires you to carefully assess the risk versus reward.”

For now, we’ll have to be content with the gameplay footage released during the Ubisoft press conference earlier today.
