Skull And Bones Pirate

AAA games? Ha! We on that AAAA shizz now.

According to VGC, Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot defended the $70 price tag for Skull and Bones, despite its shift towards a live service model. During a conference call discussing Ubisoft's Q3 sales, he emphasized the upcoming game's expansive scale — going so far as to brand it as a "quadruple-A game."

Responding to concerns about the pricing strategy potentially limiting the game's player base, Guillemot asserted that Skull and Bones merits its full-price status due to its extensive content and long-term potential.

Skull and Bones is set to launch on February 16 (after numerous delays and development challenges).
