Wondering if Ubisoft’s next game, Skull and Bones, will be available on Xbox Game Pass? So here’s everything you need to know.
Although Xbox Game Pass already offers a pirate game with Sea of Thieves, Skull and Bones is going to offer a very different experience, focusing on different aspects of pirate life.
Skull and Bones, originally planned as a DLC for 2013’s Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag, focuses solely on naval warfare, with Detailed ship construction and combat.
So fans definitely wouldn’t want to miss this, especially since there aren’t many AAA pirate games out there currently.
So, if you have an Xbox Game Pass subscription and are wondering if Skull and Bones is available on this service, here’s everything you need to know.

Skull and Bones takes place in the Indian Ocean in the 17th century.
Is Skull and Bones on Xbox Game Pass?
No, Skull and Bones will not be available on Xbox Game Pass when it launches on February 16. Ubisoft has its own subscription service, Ubisoft+, and if you subscribe to Ubisoft+ Premium (priced at €17.99 per month), you will have access to the Premium edition of the game.
The fact that Ubisoft+ is available in Xbox Game Pass also reduces the chances that Skull and Bones will be available on day one on Xbox Game Pass.
However, it is extremely likely that Skull and Bones will be available on Xbox Game Pass in the near future. Most of Ubisoft’s biggest blockbusters that are around two years old, like Assassin’s Creed Valhalla and Far Cry 6, are available on the service.
So while Skull and Bones isn’t yet announced as part of Xbox Game Pass, we can reasonably expect it to eventually arrive in the subscription, but it could be a few years away.
