Does Skull and Bones have crossplay?

Despite being in perpetual development hell for the last decade or so, Skull and Bones is finally coming out in a few short days. Developed by Ubisoft Singapore, the upcoming game is essentially a multiplayer spin on the naval combat and exploration segments of Assassin's Creed 4 Black Flag, albeit on a much grander scale.
