Create an unstoppable fleet of ships when you add and invite your friends to play alongside you in Skull and Bones.

Skull and Bones is quite the maritime adventure. The notoriety of your pirate character is completely up to you. And of course, that can garner the attention of others. So, why not add a friend or two, invite them to a group, and play Skull and Bones as a party?

You can't be on the same ship, but you can become quite the powerful fleet. If you come across a player or have a friend jumping into the game, set sail alongside them. That will help you overwhelm and overcome just about any obstacle the Indian ocean sets in front of you.

How to add to friends and invite them to play in Skull and Bones

This is the most obvious method in the game. Here's how to do some from simply walking around and spotting another pirate:

  1. Approach another player while on land, such as Sainte-Anne, a treasure map location, or an outpost
  2. Alternatively, you can use the spyglass while sailing to spot another player-manned ship
  3. Hold the interact button to open Player Options
  4. Select to Send Friend Request or Invite to Group
  5. Simply press the Interact button beforehand to invite them to a group right away instead of opening Player Options

Through the Social menu
