The release of Skull and Bones marks a milestone for Ubisoft, bringing an open-world pirate adventure to the gaming landscape on PC, PlayStation, and Xbox. With its launch, questions arise about the possibility of navigating its vast seas on the Nintendo Switch.

The long-awaited pirate-themed game, previously hindered by multiple delays, has now arrived. Players from around the globe are diving into its immersive world, embarking on a new swashbuckling saga.

Originally inspired by the ship-to-ship combat in Assassins Creed IV: Black Flag, Skull and Bones will see players controlling all elements of sailing and engaging other vessels on the high seas, including ship navigation, crew management and combat.

Set during the ‘Golden Age of Piracy’ in the late 1600s, the game claims the Indian Ocean as its main setting. Players begin as a lowly swashbuckler scad with big dreams of becoming the High Seas most infamous pirate captain.

It’s taken a while for Skull and Bones to make it out of harbor, but the game sets sail February 16.

Will Skull and Bones be coming to Nintendo Switch?

As of writing Skull and Bones is not coming to Nintendo Switch. Skull and Bones is currently available on the PS5, Xbox, and PC.

There’s no word on the possibility of a future port yet. But, developer Ubisoft has been a big proponent of spreading the love across all current-generation platforms. They’ve released a slew of fantastic ports for the Switch, including the Assassins Creed Ezio Trilogy and Rebel Collection.

That said, the Switch is a console nearing the end of its shelf life. If Ubisoft wants to bring their pirate adventure to Nintendo players, they may just wait until the next generation console arrives.
