TapTechNews August 12th news, Ubisoft launched the game Skull and Bones on February 16th this year. It has been half a year since then. This game is promoted by Ubisoft as a 4A-level game, but it is far from meeting expectations. Many fans think this game is not worth the $70 (Note: 318 yuan in the domestic area) price tag because it doesn't even have boarding actions and sword fighting.
Due to the unsatisfactory sales situation, the game has received a 30% discount just two weeks after its release, and now Skull and Bones has dropped to a historical low in the promotional activities of the overseas third-party e-commerce platform Best Buy, where both the Xbox and PS5 versions are only sold for $10 (TapTechNews note: currently about 72 yuan).
Although Ubisoft hopes that Skull and Bones can remain popular in the coming years, it is really not a good sign that such a high discount is offered by the third-party e-commerce platform just half a year after the release of Skull and Bones.
According to IGN's evaluation, Ubisoft's Skull and Bones got 7 points. The reviewer believes that the plot of this game is thin and not very dramatic. The waves, ships, and light effects are great, but the NPCs look quite mechanical.
In addition, Skull and Bones will be released on Steam on August 23rd (click here to visit), and the game product page shows that this game uses D encryption technology. Players need to have a Ubisoft account and a stable network connection to play this game on Steam.
In terms of configuration requirements, the minimum requirement for Skull and Bones is an Intel Core i7 4790 or AMD R5 1600 processor + GTX1060 6GB or AMD RX570 8GB graphics card. It is recommended to use hardware at the level of i7 8700k or R5 3600 + RTX2070 or RX5700XT. 16GB of memory is recommended, and 65GB of hard disk space is also required.
