Ubisoft's naval action title Skull and Bones has received a new seasonal update, Eye of the Beast, which brings large cephalopod encounters into the open-world pirate sandbox. The game continues to get fresh content even as it struggles with a small concurrent player base and middling critical and user feedback.

  • Eye of the Beast introduces massive sea-monster skirmishes that change how players engage enemy warships and world encounters.
  • The title remains in active development and receives seasonal content rolls despite recent corporate restructuring and studio cuts at Ubisoft.
  • Skull and Bones currently shows a very low count of simultaneous players on Steam, and its community sentiment sits in the mid-60s percentile range.
  • Early exploration still leaves some players in the starting zones, but the new update promises more ambitious late-game threats and emergent encounters for crews that push onward.
