New Skull and Bones leaks suggest forced PvP coming to PS5 and Xbox. Ubisoft is still pitching Skull and Bones as a single-player RPG with co-op, but it sounds more like PvP will be unavoidable.
I could take or leave the land bits. I just wanted more ships and more upgrade paths and tradeoffs, with something like the bit where you send ships in your fleet out on jobs.
It shouldn't be marketed like that if its not. But I must say I am of the minority that feels more immersed in the game when another pirate gang comes along and wants our loot.
