E3: Pirates II Announced

posted by Thunderfall at 10:10 PM

Atari and Firaxis announced Pirates II at E3 today, as expected. The sequel will adhere to the open model of the first game and will feature a full 3D engine.

“The main reason we decided to bring pirates back to life was because of the game players,” Sid explains. “Every time we talked to gamers over 25 years of age, they asked when are we going to do another Pirates!”

The game most likely will be a single player game and is slated for release sometime next year.

Aww yeah!
