Reviewers highlight the lack of polish in the game, citing simple and boring quests, technical issues, and a lack of standout features in the face of other live service games. While the game offers interesting ship customization and a beautiful open world, the overall experience falls short of expectations.
Despite Ubisoft’s vision for Skull and Bones as a long-playing live service game, critics have expressed disappointment in the multiplayer features, noting limited player interaction. This has led to concerns about the game’s potential for success as a AAAA-level release.
