Ubisoft's upcoming multiplayer pirating game may be a bit late to the party finally, but everything about it is as modern as current AAA titles, including many supported features that PC players will be happy about. Unfortunately, that means the PC specs are also in line with other major titles at the moment...
Skull and Bones may just be Ubisoft's own version of Sea of Thieves, but the PC system requirements are much more demanding than Microsoft's own venture. Fortunately it will launch in November 2022 with uncapped frame rates, widescreen support, DLSS and FSR support, as well as ray traced global illumination.
So without further ado, here are the official Skull and Bones PC system requirements...
Skull and Bones Minimum system requirements - 1080p/30fps/Low graphics
- OS: Windows 10
- CPU:Intel Core i7-4790 or AMD Ryzen 5 1600

- Storage: 65GB SSD
Skull and Bones Recommended system requirements - 1080p/60fps/High graphics

Your PC will need a graphics card that is as powerful as an RTX 2070 or RX 5700 XT which should then be paired with either a Core i7-8700K or Ryzen 5 3600 processor to match the Skull and Bones recommended system requirements. This setup will then deliver 60fps performance on High graphics settings at 1080p resolution. 16GB of RAM is also recommended.
Skull and Bones needs a GPU that is at least as powerful as a GTX 1060 or RX 570 coupled with a Core i7-4790 or Ryzen 5 1600 CPU in order to match the minimum system requirements. This will then achieve 30fps performance on Low graphics settings at 1080p resolution. The minimum amount of system memory needed is 8GB.
Overall, looking at the specs above, Skull and Bones will need around a 3 year old PC in order to play at its best.

Such a shame this game have no story.
And therefor forking over 60 bucks for the pc version and presumably even more for the consoles...
Im not so sure about it being an honest deal, cause you have to make your own adventure, which can be a hit or a miss.
So all in all i think im waiting it out and grab it on sale, or maybe im not grabbing it at all.

Please pirate all of Ubi's games till they learn to develop properly for PC. Please and thank you.

Such high requirements to play a game with PS3 graphics? Only Ubisoft can manage something like that.

2070 for 1080p is steep and interesting. Of course if Ubish!t removes Denuvo then I am sure it will run on a 750 Ti.
PC Specs
Its not really Denuvos fault but Ubisofts. They didnt optimise any game so requirements were always sh1t and will be.

I mean Ubish!t are sh!t. That's an established fact. Hence I didn't point it out 😁
