“Skull & Bones” Game Faces Leadership Shakeup Amid Union Campaign

Ubisoft’s highly anticipated pirate game, “Skull & Bones”, has experienced yet another leadership change with its third creative director stepping down. This comes at a time when the game development team is gearing up for a union campaign.

Creative Director Exits Amid Development Troubles

The latest setback for “Skull & Bones” is the departure of its Creative Director, Elisabeth Pellen, marking the third time that the game has lost a creative director in its four-year development period. The reasons behind the departure remain unclear.

Employee Unionization on the Horizon

The team behind “Skull & Bones” is preparing for a union campaign, in a move that could shake up the game development industry. The unionization effort comes amid reports of a toxic work culture and managerial issues at Ubisoft.

Impact on “Skull & Bones” Release

The game, which has already faced multiple delays, is now without a creative director and is dealing with the potential unionization of its team. This could further impact the game’s release timeline, which is currently slated for 2022-2023.

The departure of the Creative Director and the potential unionization of the “Skull & Bones” team represent significant challenges for Ubisoft. The company will need to navigate these issues carefully to ensure the successful launch of the game.
