Skull and Bones is an upcoming open-world multiplayer action-adventure title developed by Ubisoft Singapore and published by Ubisoft. The title was announced in 2017, but we’re finally getting our hands on it this year. It’s certainly been a long time, and so far, the footage has shown some naval combat, exploration, and the various PvP and PvE modes available. With the title up for pre-purchase, additional details have also been revealed. Here are the official Skull and Bones System Requirements.

Ubisoft has been releasing these detailed requirements for some time now, and it’s one of the better ways to set expectations for interested PC players. If you’re targeting 1440p and want to crank up the settings to the Ultra preset, you’ll need a Ryzen 5 5600X paired with an RTX 3070 with 8 GB of VRAM.
This is a reasonably demanding title, especially at this resolution, but at 1080p, you’ll be okay with an RTX 2070. If you want to go further and target 4K, you will need a pretty beefy GPU like the RTX 3080 with DLSS enabled and a Ryzen 5 5600X. The addition of DLSS and FSR is always welcome and gives players with budget GPUs to target higher resolutions at a minimal loss of visual quality.
Apart from these, you’ll need 65 GB of free space and 16 GB of RAM. We highly recommend that PC users upgrade to 16 GB and consider moving to SSDs to ensure modern titles run smoothly. The SSD is a requirement across all presets.
