Ubisoft claims a lot of things... Also, I'd be shocked if that game actually makes them any money considering the amount of time it's been in development, and what is at this point a complete lack of interest for this game. |
On that I agree, Skull & Bones is for sure going to lose them money. I see very little interest in it, pre-order numbers are shite, and it has been in development since like 2014, so basically it has 9 years of a AAA sized dev team's yearly salaries as part of it's budget, plus pay for the voice actors, pay for localization teams, pay for the marketing campaign, costs of printing and shipping discs to retailers, etc. At this point Skull & Bones would need to bring in something like $200m+ in revenue to break even most likely, I can't see that happening.
Which is all the more reason why they needed more than just AC Mirage this year as a AAA capable of actually making money, they needed a Far Cry spinoff in 2023 and it seems they don't have one.
