We still don't really know how far away we are from the game's actual release - despite word on the vines that it would be 'early' this year (early financial year for Ubisoft, that is). In-engine footage has slowly trickled out in the months and years since its announcement, but the overall state of the game is not yet verifiable at this point in 2023. Skull and Bones has had several betas since its initial unveiling, the most recent of which took place in January of this year with a 6-hour play window. At this year's Ubisoft Forward event, no in-game action was shown, only a live rendition of the title's theme song with some cutscene shots. It has now been over a year since the publisher revealed the overview trailer highlighting the open-seas warfare. For those interested in the long-awaited, severely-delayed upcoming game, you can sign up for closed beta access at the game's official website.
