In their recent earnings call for the latest fiscal year, Ubisoft told investors they were “very happy” with the progress being made on Skull and Bones.

For those not in the know, Skull and Bones is Ubisoft’s awaited piratical adventure game that was announced all the way back in 2017. After the game’s announcement it was delayed, and delayed, and delayed, and… you get the picture.

However after the most recent delay it seems the game is apace for its release date, whenever that is. The most recent claims are that the game is finally coming this fiscal year, so it could be anywhere from next month to next April.

It shouldn’t be unexpected for Ubisoft to be happy with the game’s progress, after all it was only a few months ago that they had a new build of the game that was too good to even show anyone.

If you prefer your pirate adventures more silly and exciting (and most of all actually released) then check out our review of Sea of Thieves.
