It’s not all bad news though, as all the disappointment surroundingSkull & Boneshas led to an enormous increase of players forBlack Flag. The game’s concurrent players onSteamhave reportedly tripled, which is the second time a brand-new game’s failure has led to a surge of players for an older game, which isn’t a lot but it’s weird that it happened twice.

It’s the same story forSkull & BonesandBlack Flag. One game restricts you to your ship with dull combat and no option to board other vessels when sailing the seas, and one is an action-packed adventure that lets you freely roam the Caribbean on land or at sea.
Fans have been calling for a remake ofBlack Flagfor years now, and it’s believedone is in development for current-gen consoles. A sequel for the game does exist, just not in the way you’d expect. Edward Kenway’s adventure continues in thewebcomicAssassin’s Creed: Forgotten Temple.
As forSkull & Bones, it seems the game is cursed to slowly sink into obscurity, like a ship would sink at sea. It doesn’t seem like anyone is going to throw it a lifesaver either.
