Look what the CEO said when Ubisoft’s new game received criticism!

Skull and Bones , which was first announced by Ubisoft in 2017 and has been postponed several times until now , will finally be released after long waits. The countdown game is currently on pre-order and will be playable when it is released upon purchase. However, the price set for Skull and Bones attracted a lot of criticism from players. Today, the company CEO responded to these criticisms.

Ubisoft CEO defended the price of Skull and Bones

Skull and Bones, which will be released from the pre-order process on February 16, is sold for 999 TL on the Epic Games Store in Turkey, while its international price is 60 dollars . This price was found high by the players. The reason for this is that there will be elements such as additional items you can purchase in the game, battle pass, seasonal events and currency. So, if you want to make extra purchases in addition to the main game price of $ 60 , you will still have to pay.

For example , Red Dead Redemption 2 , which is considered the world’s best story game , is sold abroad for $59.99 . Moreover, it offers hundreds of hours of playable world. Although foreign players consider the price of RDR 2 normal , they do not think the same for Skull and Bones .

The reason why they disagree is not the price of the game, but the fact that extra items will be sold within the game after purchasing the game. As you know, players do not like to make additional payments after purchasing the game. However, Ubisoft CEO defends this price.

Company CEO Yves Guillemot defined Skull and Bones as “AAAA” when asked why the game was sold for money, even though there were additional contents that could be purchased for money . In other words, he tried to say that the game is of higher quality than even games in the AAA category such as Red Dead Redemption 2 , The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt and GTA 5 .

Guillemot , who is quite ambitious for Skull and Bones , said, “ You will see that Skull and Bones is a full-fledged game. It is a very big game and we think people will really see how broad and complete this game is. So this is a real triple-A, quadruple-A game that will really pay off in the long run. ” said.
