E3 2017: Battle The Kraken in Ubisoft’s Pirate Adventure Skull and Bones
Ubisoft really hit it out of the park at this year’s E3. In addition to a new Assassin’s Creed, Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle, Beyond Good and Evil 2, South Park: The Fractured But Whole, Starlink: Battle for Atlas, and some brutal Far Cry 5 footage, they also showcased a new pirate-themed IP called Skull and Bones.
In pure Ubisoft-style, Skull and Bones will be set in a huge open-world environment with countless hours of gameplay on offer. In addition to the multiplayer modes, there’ll also be a dedicated single-player campaign to appease us old school gamers who actually care about story. We also see from the end of the trailer that the game will also feature naval battles with giant octopus creatures,
This isn’t Ubisoft’s first open-world pirate adventure, as they previously bought us the marvelous Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag back in 2013. Looks like Skull and Bones is in good hands.
