On 7th July 2022, Ubisoft finally revealed the release date of their upcoming pirate, open-world action-adventure title, Skull and Bones as 8th November 2022. The developer also opened up registrations for upcoming Skull and Bones "live tests" or betas.

In this article, we outline how prospective pirate captains can join in for a chance at Skull and Bones beta/live test access, the platforms supported, and the expected release dates for these tests.

First and foremost, the Skull and Bones live and beta tests are not the same as the Insider Program, which runs separately and is ongoing, only available for PC gamers.

Those on PC (Via Ubisoft Connect), Xbox Series X/S, and PlayStation 5 can sign up for a chance at joining one of the upcoming live tests or betas for Skull and Bones.

At the time of writing, the exact release dates for the beta or live tests for Skull and Bones is not available just yet.

We do, however, know that the Insider Program for PC gamers is ongoing. With the wording of "tests" we assume there will be multiple beta/live test periods.

Skull and Bones releases on 8th November 2022. Therefore, our guess is you will see betas or live tests (possibly a weekend test or two?) to begin between early September and late mid-October.

Please note that these are just guesstimates on the Skull and Bones beta/live test release dates.
