Publisher HeroCraft and developer Lion’s Shade have announced that after eight months of adding an array of content updates, refinements and improvements, Tempest, their Open World pirate RPG will be receiving its full release on PC and Mac on August 22nd priced at $14.99/€14.99/£10.99.
As the press release reads, Tempest is set across three vast open world regions, and will focus primarily on the most exciting elements of being a pirate – captaining your own ship and engaging in intense sea battles. Players will be able to create, customise and upgrade their sea vessel and take to the open seas to plunder treasure-laden merchant ships, go cannon-to-cannon with enemy galleons, and storm land based fortresses with your crew.
“As you navigate the deep and dangerous oceans of Tempest, the earthly challenges of heavily defended merchant vessels and rival pirates are not all that you will be faced with. Sinister disciples of a mysterious cult and fearsome mythical creatures including the infamous Kraken and monstrous Leviathan will provide completely different challenges on your travels across the oceans.”
Enjoy!

Its quite hard to make out how it plays. But I do love sailing the open sea, one thing that annoyed me about ACIV was too high encounter count.
Good thing i hate pirates because every game with that setting turns out to be garbage.
Sid Meyer Pirates?
Monkey Island?
Sea Dogs?
Pirates of the Caribbean? (not related to the movie)
Moot since you hate pirates, so I really don’t know why am I doing here.
lol looks just like old Pirates of the Burning Sea and that came out centuries ago. Ill give this a try but dosnt look like it will beat Port Royal.

“and will focus primarily on the most exciting elements of being a pirate – captaining your own ship and engaging in intense sea battles.”
pretty sure those arent the most exciting elements of being a pirate. otherwise being a captain would be the same lol
