Is Skull and Bones coming to Steam Deck?

Skull and Bones, the newest title from Ubisoft, has launched, bringing pirate-themed gameplay to PlayStation, Xbox, and PC. Steam Deck owners are now curious whether they’ll be able to join the adventure on Valve’s handheld console. We’ve gathered the latest information to answer this query.

After enduring numerous delays, the much-anticipated pirate-themed game has finally launched, captivating players globally with its debut. This marks a momentous occasion for fans who have eagerly awaited its release, promising a thrilling adventure on the high seas.

This open-world RPG is set in the Indian Ocean, around the 17th century, during the Golden Age of Piracy. The game was inspired by Assissin’s Creed: Black Flag’s naval warfare and will put players in command of a ship to make them sail around the sea, scheming and stealing.

Due to the game launching only on new-gen consoles -PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S– as well as PC, players are wondering if they will be able to become the ultimate pirate kingpin on the Steam Deck.

Can you play Skull and Bones on Steam Deck?

No, Skull and Bones is not available on Steam Deck. This is probably due to the game not launching on Steam, but mainly because it’s not set to release for past-gen platforms, which includes Valve’s console.

Lately, Ubisoft has been leaving its big titles out of the Steam Deck’s possibilities, as recently happened with Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown. The reason behind this could be because developers are starting to let go of older consoles, but also due to the games requiring stronger hardware to work.

If Skull and Bones eventually makes it to the Steam Deck, it will need the proper adjustments to keep a good performance and not ruin the players’ experience. If that happens, we will update this guide.
