Ubisoft’s Skull and Bones is an upcoming pirate RPG in the open world that has been in development for quite some time, but it looks like it may finally be released this year. The game is rumored to be out this year and the release date is believed to have been leaked via an Xbox Store listing.

According to Aggiornamenti Lumia, and later confirmed by Tom Hendersonthe game is slated to release on November 8, 2022. Ubisoft hasn’t made any official comment or confirmation as to a release date yet, but Henderson has built up a pretty strong reputation when it comes to leaks and launch dates.

Skull and Bones has had a notoriously long development cycle in which the game was canceled and brought back. Earlier this year, gameplay footage of a demo of the game leaked onto the internet, suggesting that the game is almost ready for release this year.

Skull and Bones could finally be released this year, leaks suggest

The early concept of Skull and Bones came about after the success of Assassin’s Creed Black Flag and its surprisingly fun naval combat mechanic. The idea was initially that the game would be an expansion for Black Flag, which later evolved into a standalone MMO title, but eventually gained a foothold as an independent project.

The game went through several iterations and became one of the most infamous game titles stuck in “development hell”. Finally, after several delays, the game is finally launching this year and it looks like Ubisoft will be announcing a release date for the game soon.

It will be interesting to see how the public reacts to the game and if it will have the same impact as Black Flag at launch. Skill and Bones is the first game to be developed by Ubisoft Singapore, a studio that has previously helped with games like Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag and Valhalla.
