Skull and Bones Delves into the Features and Design of Its Upcoming Massive Frigate

Ubisoft is steering full speed ahead with Skull and Bones’ Year 2 Season 2 update, prominently featuring the game’s first large-class vessel: the formidable frigate. Following its initial announcement, a new developer deep-dive reveals detailed specs and strategies for this seafaring titan.

The frigate commands attention with 34 cannon ports, double the auxiliary weapon slots, and unparalleled stability in rough seas. Its signature Grit ability bolsters armor while reducing incoming damage for nearby smaller allies. However, captains must navigate tradeoffs: sluggish river traversal, reduced agility, and vulnerable hull weak points that take 30% extra damage in PvP combat. Strategic positioning and precise targeting will be essential for both frigate pilots and their adversaries.

Though constructing this leviathan demands vast resources, its arrival on July 15th promises to reshape naval warfare. As Ubisoft’s blog notes, the frigate stands as both a symbol of power and a tactical game-changer—ready to dominate the high seas for those bold enough to claim it.
