Below we have the Anti-cheat system the developers have put in place for Skull And Bones:
PC Anti-Cheat System:
Player tooling:
a fair matchmaking system that assigns players to servers according to their PvP preference and Infamy level. A player’s disruptive behavior in the game may also be reported or blocked by another player.
Game servers:
Cloud servers and robust physical servers with modular redundancy work together to reduce wait times during periods of high traffic. North and South America, Europe, Asia, South Africa, and Oceania all have Ubisoft dedicated server locations.
Anti-cheat solutions:
Real-time game monitoring is done by BattlEye. If any cheats have been used and discovered to obtain an unfair advantage, it immediately permanently bans players after the first violation.
The game can be played solo but “is best experienced with up to two other friends.” If you decide to pay with other players you will be matched up based on your infamy level and PvP preference, and a built-in reporting system will enable players to report or block others for “disruptive behavior.”
Skull And Bones is coming to PC, PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Stadia, and Luna on the 8th of November.
