Ubisoft has announced an open beta for the game Skull & Bones, signaling further delays. The game was supposed to enter production in 2013 and was publicly showcased at E3 in 2017. Since then, the release date has been repeatedly pushed back, leading to uncertainty about its actual launch.
One former developer stated that “nobody knew what the hell they were doing,” but Ubisoft is now sticking to a confirmed release date in February 2023.
The studio has now announced an open beta for the Skull & Bones game. It will be available from February 8th to 11th via the Epic Games Store, the Ubisoft store, and on PS5 and Xbox Series X/S consoles. Cross-play and cross-progression features will be enabled, and players will be able to reach level 6 and obtain exclusive items such as emotes, weapons, companion animals, and ship cosmetics.
According to information from the developer’s blog, players will have the opportunity to participate in the main campaign, which is the most “direct” way to progress in the game, build reputation, and discover more about the world of Skull & Bones. Ubisoft also added that even though progress in the main campaign will be blocked, players can continue exploring the game world throughout the entire duration of the open beta. Any progress made during the beta will be transferred to the full version of the game, which will be released on February 16th.
