Ubisoft has released Skull and Bones update 1.000.008 on all platforms today, and this is to bring a minor fix involving a firework. This patch has been rolled out during the game’s server outage, which lasted for an hour.

Skull and Bones Update 1.000.008 Patch Notes:

Here’s what got fixed per Ubisoft:

• Fix deployed for the firework ‘Plague Eater’ not displaying correctly upon triggering.

As far as we’re aware, that’s about it. No word if this brings crashing fixes which has been an issue on all platforms, but mostly affecting Xbox gamers.

For new content, we just got patch 1.5 last month, which introduced a host of fixes as well. There are also events players can look forward to, which we’ve included below for reference.
