10 Upcoming Video Games We Still Know Nothing About
2. Skull & Bones
Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag is known for being the Assassin's Creed game that's more about being a pirate than being an assassin. Turns out that people actually like being pirates. So much so that Ubisoft decided to make a game where you can just be a pirate; no hidden blades required.
Skull & Bones was revealed at E3 2017. It's a game that allows you to sail the Indian Ocean as a pirate captain that you get to customize. You can play with friends, engage in ship battles, and take advantage of a whole arsenal of pirate weaponry. While Ubisoft has explained the gist of the game, we still don't know what the single-player campaign will entail besides sailing the ocean and sinking any ship that crosses your path. Can a AAA game survive off of that concept alone?
Not to mention that the game isn't coming out anytime soon. It was originally slated to release in 2018. Then it was delayed to 2019. Just recently, it was delayed again to sometime after March 2020. The game may never come out at this rate.
The issue with the game is how little Ubisoft talks about it. A YouTube search of it pulls up videos that are eleven months to a year old. Combine that with the constant delays and it seems like things aren't looking good for this pirate simulator.
