Skull and Bones is a game that has been stuck in development hell for around a decade, so it is kind of a miracle it has finally been given a confirmed release date: Feb. 16, 2024. Not only that, but the game also has several different versions available to pre-order right now.
As is usually the case when upcoming games have different editions available for pre-order, each has a different set of bonuses. Let’s take a closer look at the bonuses you can get with the various Skull and Bones preorders.
What are the pre-order bonuses for Skull and Bones?
There are only two versions of Skull and Bones available for preorder: the standard edition and the premium edition. You only get the base game with standard, but you get several pre-order bonuses with the premium edition.
These premium bonuses are as follows:
- The Premium Bonus Pack: In this pack, you will get the Ballad of Bloody Bones Collection. This collection includes the Bloody Bones Captain Outfit along with a mast trophy, a ship wheel, helm decor, and eight other Ashen Corsair Ship Ornaments.
- Artbook/Soundtrack: This includes the official soundtrack alongside the official artbook in digital form.
- Missions: There are two additional missions available when you pre-order the premium edition. These missions are called “The Ashen Corsair” and “Bloody Bones’ Legacy.”
- Smuggler Pass Token: Finally, players will receive a smuggler pass token if they choose to pre-order the premium edition of Skull and Bones. This token will unlock the premium smuggler pass, which is a token that is useable once during any season.
If you pre-purchase the game on the Epic Games Store, you will also get the Highness of the High Sea Pack, which includes the Notoriety Garb and the Coronation Firework.
