Skull and Bones release date finally secured
Skull and Bones, Ubisoft's beleaguered pirate adventure, finally has a release date.
It is set to arrive on 16th February, across PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S. As is becoming custom, if you pre-order the premium edition, you will be able to play the game three days ahead of everyone else.
