GeForce Now comprises multiple membership tiers, but at the base level, you can play some games on the cloud with several restrictions in between, such as limited playtime, scant server access, and barebones graphics. In case you’d like to go higher up the ranks on this front, consider upgrading to Ultimate, which is thoroughly decked out.
On a side note, in case you missed all the drama that has ensued in the context of Skull and Bones, the title has been delayed half a dozen times now, with the development of the tactical action-adventure being in rough waters over the years. It’s only now that Skull and Bones has officially seen the light of day, coming off as an inspiration project of Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag.
Additionally, Skull and Bones has gotten off to a poor start, though, with heaps of negative reviews piling up on aggregate review platform Metacritic. Ironically, the title has been flagged as a “AAAA” game, priced at $69.99 — which is a full premium — and has Ubisoft defending its live service stance, but to no proper avail, evidently.
The title came out on February 16, 2024, for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. If you’re a new player, here are the 5 best ships in the game that you shouldn’t sleep on, followed by this guide on these 7 high-quality ship armors for better defensive stats.
