We won’t have many opportunities to explore on two feet, but at least there will be supercell storms, and the water physics won’t be weak in Skull & Bones either.
You’ll be able to get out of your ship to search for treasure at the outposts. Still, once you get back on the water, the physics will be reasonable, as Ubisoft has worked on the physics for the water and wind, which will affect the speed at which your ship travels (but it isn’t a hardcore maritime simulator). We should also be aware of the weather: if we’re not careful, we could get a leak in a big storm while sailing into a supercell. After the video, we continue with the system requirements.

The PC version has an unlimited frame rate, support for multiple monitors and ultra-wide displays, customizable controls, and the ability to tune multiple graphics settings individually. You can adjust the field of view (FOV), but there will also be a built-in benchmark testing option. DLSS, FSR, and ray traced global illumination can also be used for those with powerful enough hardware. There will also be crossplay with PlayStation 5, Xbox Series and Google Stadia (no Luna?).
Although you can play the game alone, Ubisoft suggests playing with two friends. It uses our reputation (infamy) and PvP settings to put us with other players. With the built-in reporting system, we can report disruptive behaviour. Anti-cheat software BattlEye will also be used in the French publisher’s game, and we’ll be perma-banned the first time we’re caught out in the game, which arrives on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, PC (Epic Games Store, Ubisoft Store), Google Stadia and Amazon Luna on November 8.
![However, an anonymous GOG employee paints an even darker tone of the internal situation: „We were told it’s a financial decision. GOG’s revenue couldn’t keep up with growth, the fact that we’re dangerously close to being in the red has come up in the past few months, and the market’s move towards higher [developer] revenue shares have, or will, affect the bottom line as well.](https://thegeek.games/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/the-gog-1-302x180.jpg)
