Skull and Bones review: "Too much of a grind for too little reward"

In Skull and Bones you are a ship, not a pirate.

But this is really where the grind in Skull and Bones begins.

You’ll need to find and purchase blueprints for almost everything in the game.

Skull and Bones is a stunning game, and a pleasure to explore from the water.

The same goes for the naval combat itself, but then that shouldn’t really come as a surprise.

You also can’t call for help on anything except for the plunder missions.

In fact, the longer you play the more frustrating Skull and Bones becomes.

The same quests are dished out on repeat, and Ubisoft is yet to squash some pretty frustrating bugs.

Skull and Bones is being reviewed on PS5 with a code provided by the publisher.
