You can see the level of the opposing ship, as well as a health bar. You will captain your ship and target your weapons with colored indicators showing where your cannons will fire. On the base level, it looks a lot like the naval combat from Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag, which makes perfect sense. Oh, and you can obviously ignore the “releasing in 2019” bit at the end, too.
From this trailer, though, we can see some gameplay mechanics and systems that look very interesting. Now, take this trailer with a grain of salt since we have no idea how much of what was shown off here still remains part of the game in its current form. Skull & Bones: E3 2018 The Hunting Grounds | Gameplay Walkthrough | Ubisoft Īgain going way back, this time to E3 2018, we have one source for a gameplay overview. Again, that’s just speculation, especially since the game has undergone many changes since this brief announcement trailer. Perhaps taking a cue from Sea of Thieves, there won’t be an overarching main plot, but rather just smaller missions and mission chains, as well as dynamic events, that fill in the gaps between PvP naval combat. Since Skull and Bones is supposedly an online experience, it may be the case that there isn’t a story in a traditional sense. In terms of plot, story, and characters, there’s nothing to really go on. The trailer ends, as a crew is hauling up their loot from the waters, with the foreboding threat of a Kraken-type creature of incredible size just below the surface. However, when two new pirate crews show up, the real battle begins. Cannonballs rip through the hulls, splintering wood and shattering masts as the pirates cripple the target ship.
We see some beautiful, although obviously pre-rendered, shots of pirate and cargo ships engaging on rough seas. This announcement trailer sets the game in 1721 on the Indian Ocean, which is both the prime time period and location for historical pirate activities. Here’s your blast from the past, since the only official trailer for Skull and Bones is the original reveal trailer from way back at E3 2017.
