Skull and Bones Friend referral program

Our friend referral program will kick off with the release of Skull and Bones on the 16th of February. Invite your friends to play the game for all of you to earn rewards!

The Friend referral program is available on PC, Xbox Series X|S and PS5.

Once you purchased the game and started playing, you are eligible to invite your friends.

You will be able to invite those among your friends who have not yet played Skull and Bones. Invites can only be sent once to someone – if they have already been invited you will not be able to invite them again.

The more friends you invite, the higher the number of rewards. Your friend will need to have sunk 2 ships in game and purchased any version of Skull and Bones for you to receive the rewards.
