Pirates Republic Game Survive the Caribbean, rescue your crew and build a ship

Pirates Republic celebrating the game with a brand new trailer. 

With the wind in their sails again, the team is also excited to announce that they are hard at work moving the game into Unreal Engine 5 and that they have plans to open alpha testing for members of their Discord. Pirates Republic is a survival sandbox where you can play solo or team up in online co-op to gather supplies, build a settlement and work towards launching your own ship.

Set in the Caribbean in 1714, Pirates Republic puts survival at the heart of the pirate adventure. After a disastrous voyage leaves you shipwrecked, getting back to sea means starting over: finding food, crafting tools, recovering materials and bringing a scattered crew together. Every shelter you build and castaway you rescue brings that goal closer.
