Skull and Bones, the oft-delayed pirate game from Ubisoft that finally arrived earlier this month following almost a decade of development, has released its first season of post-launch content - introducing, among other things, new world events, new contracts and bounties, plus a battle-pass-style progression track. Raging Tides, as Skull and Bones' first live-service season is officially titled, predominantly focuses on new antagonist Philippe La Peste (AKA the Plague King) and his Fleet of Pestilence. Unfortunately, I wasn't a huge fan of the core game when I reviewed it last week, and I'm not sure Season 1 is going to do much to enliven a disappointingly dull pirate-themed live-service grind that - despite some entertaining combat and an often beautiful world - sinks amid boring busywork and tedious traversal.
