Ahoy, pirates!

The playtest has only just dropped anchor, and while we’ve had a quick moment to celebrate (and maybe down a bottle of rum), the work never stops! Before the prints on your booties even have time to fade, we’re gonna SLAP you with a fresh dose of content!

As you’ve already figured out (mostly because we’ve mentioned it about 67 times now), the Demo is coming... And for a Demo to be truly legendary, it needs a massive haul of new stuff, my little pirate. This content is currently being hammered into shape, right alongside a mountain of bug fixes and plenty of other surprises.

Here’s a sneak peek at what’s coming to the Demo:

~~~🏴‍☠️

Rum & Tonics: What’s a pirate without a bottle of something strong? We’re adding drinks that grant Status Effects. Some will make you run faster, some might make your arms grow longer... and some might have "unfortunate" side effects. Drink responsibly!

~~~ 🏴‍☠️

Booty Upgrades: Your "assets" matter. Want to run faster or survive a Howler’s bite? You’ll need a sturdier rear end. We’re introducing Booty Stats. (P.S. Who can guess what the Golden Booty does?)

~~~ 🏴‍☠️

More Weapons: We heard you loud and clear - you want more ways to cause mayhem. We’re adding new "tools of violence," each with unique physics and features.

Steam post imageWe can’t show you a sneak peek just yet, but trust us: when the Demo drops, you’ll definitely have plenty to do BETWEEN your sessions on the island. We're brewing a system that will make every coin you loot count toward your legacy.

The Official Demo is set to drop in mid-May!

As you can see, there is a treasure chest full of improvements currently in development. Also, Demo will contain:

  • A Pinch of Lore

  • Major networking and online stability improvements

  • Full in-game localization for all supported languages

There’s still time to share your thoughts in our Feedback Form or join the chaos on Discord. Tell your friends, share your clips, and keep the hype alive!

See you on the island in May!
