A few weeks after the Ubisoft CEO defended the co-op pirate game’s price, several shops have already cut the price of the company’s latest product, Skull & Bones.
As our friends at VGC pointed out, stores are already selling the game for up to $25 less than what it cost when it came out on February 16 for $70.
VGC: “It hasn’t taken long for retailers to slash its price, with Best Buy currently offering the PS5 and Xbox Series X/S versions for $44.99, and UK retailer Hit pricing them at £49.85.”
Former Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot said the price was fair because it was a “quadruple-A” game that was “vast and complete.”

Last week, the publisher also said that the game had “record player engagement.” However, stories from outside sources say that it’s actually off to a pretty slow start, even with a free trial.
