Skull & Bones will feature single-player narrative campaign

Ubisoft’s announcement of their new IP at E3 2017, a high-seas pirate game Skull & Bones, focused primarily on the online side of experience. However, the publisher confirmed, as written by PC Gamer, that the title will offer a proper story-driven single player campaign for those who don’t fancy roaming the seas with other players as treacherous and cunning as themselves. While enjoying a pirate story, the fans will meet a cast of “iconic characters and memorable rival pirates”.

Interestingly, the campaign will not be separate from multiplayer – although you will be able to play it alone, the narrative is said to be “integrated into the game”, perhaps in a manner similar to Watch Dogs, letting others join you on the fly, for example if you need help to win a big prize. As for the demo showed at E3, Ubisoft assures the fans that it was just one out of many PvP modes, called Loot Hunt. “We like to say that this is just the tip of the iceberg of what we have to show for Skull & Bones”, a Ubisoft representative said.

Skull & Bones is planned to arrive on PC, Xbox One and PlayStation 4 in the fall of 2018.
