Skull And Bones Open Beta Progress Will Carry Forward To Release, Year 1 Roadmap Detailed
Skull and Bones will receive an open beta February 8-11, with progress and exclusive rewards earned during the beta period carrying forward into the full game when it releases February 16, 2024.
Beta players will be capped at Infamy Tier 6, but can earn five exclusive rewards that will also carry over to launch, including a unique ship cosmetic, emote, weapon, and Lemur pet. The beta, just like the full game, will feature cross-play and cross-progression between Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and those playing on PC via the Epic Games Store and Ubisoft Store. Those looking for even more of a head start can subscribe to Ubisoft+ to play the full version of Skull and Bones three days early on February 13.
Ubisoft has additionally lifted the veil on what the open-world pirate RPG’s endgame will look like. After finishing the game’s campaign, players will go from working for various pirate Kingpins to becoming one themselves, as they look to build their illegal empire by controlling trade routes, manufacturing and selling goods like rum and opium, committing heists, and engaging in hostile takeovers of rival pirate lords. Each season will add new endgame features, according to Ubisoft.
