Message from the Devs - Year 2
Captains!
Today we’d like to give a long overdue update on our plans for Skull and Bones Year 2, Season 1. We know many of you have been eagerly waiting for more details, as Season 4 is scheduled to end very soon.
To cut to the chase, we have made the difficult decision to extend the duration of Season 4 and delay the launch of next major update for Skull and Bones. The new release date for our Year 2, Season 1, is now set for April 15th. While we understand this news will be disappointing to many of you, we hope you understand this decision was made after careful consideration and was also strongly influenced by the feedback we received from the community since the launch of Season 4 as well as in recent weeks.
We have very ambitious and exciting plans for the future of our game - some of which you might have caught a glimpse of in the teaser we've shared with this message. Our team has been working extremely hard to deliver on our ambitions, and we believe that this additional time will allow them to refine their work, ensuring we deliver all Y2S1 content at the best quality. We can’t wait to show more about this and our plans for Year 2 during our Showcase event, scheduled for April 14th.
In the meantime, we will be extending our Year 1 Anniversary Celebration Event “The Founding” by another week until March 25th, followed by a return of our Azure Solstice Event until April 15th. The release of our Year 1 Original Soundtrack will also be postponed from the initial March 6th release date to March 24th.
We’re also aware many of you still have questions on what to expect when it comes to your Helm Empire, when the new season launches. We are actively reviewing our plans on the matter and intend to share more details in the coming weeks – both on the changes you can expect in the game, and what it means for you as a Pirate Kingpin.
As always, your feedback is crucial to us so please do let us know your thoughts! And out of curiosity, what do you think might be revealed during our upcoming showcase?
Thanks again for your support and see you all very soon on the high seas!
The Skull and Bones Development Team.
