Ubisoft doesn't have high hopes for Skull and Bones

According to Axios journalist and former Kotaku editor-in-chief Stephen Totilo, Ubisoft does not have high hopes for the pirate action Skull and Bones.

Sources inside the company say that the management does not hope for big sales, taking into account the mixed reviews from testers.

Nevertheless, the game needs to be released, and preferably in not the worst condition, so the producers decided yesterday to postpone it again — this time until March 2023.

The media has repeatedly reported that the production cycle of Skull and Bones turned out to be very problematic, but Ubisoft could not simply cancel the game, since it initially had certain obligations to the government of Singapore, where the main core of developers is based.

As part of the business development in Singapore, with the support of the authorities, Ubisoft was obliged to hire a certain number of employees and demonstrate the result of their work by the deadline approved by the end of 2022.

In exchange, she hoped to get good subsidies.

If you believe Kotaku, the company went to another transfer after devastating reviews on the progression system — testers scolded pumping and called the process monotonous and uninteresting.

Skull and Bones will be released on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and PC.
