Why you might like it

  • Ubisoft's naval pirate-life MMO, letting players rise from outcast to infamous pirate captain, commanding customizable ships in a persistent, always-online shared pirate world.
  • Naval combat and ship customization form the core of a genre with relatively few dedicated large-budget entries, making it a notable pick for players specifically wanting pirate-ship-focused MMO gameplay.
  • Backed by ongoing Ubisoft live-service support, with an official server status page maintained for real-time uptime and maintenance tracking.
Before you play

Things to consider

  • The game is always-online by design with no offline mode — if Ubisoft's servers ever shut down, unlike single-player games, there's no way to continue playing, a real consideration given Ubisoft's history of sunsetting some live-service titles.
  • It launched to a mixed commercial reception and had a long, well-documented troubled development history before release, which is worth researching if you're deciding whether to invest in the game long-term.
  • As with most Ubisoft live-service titles, expect an evolving roadmap of seasonal content — the game you'd play today may differ meaningfully from its launch-state reviews.
