Skull & Bones Game Director Leaves Ubisoft After Nearly 15 Years

Skull & Bones started out as a multiplayer expansion for Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag nine years ago in 2013. The expansion grew to the point it became its own game. It was officially announced in 2017 and had a second demo in 2018. However, since then we haven't heard much from the game other than it getting delayed multiple times.

In July 2021 Ubisoft announced production on Skull & Bones has just passed into the Alpha stage and the team is excited to share more details on it when the time is right.
