    Assassains creed black flag has such a good pirating mechanic they tried making an entire game focusing on it.

      The mechanic was developed for AC3 so I’d say they successfully made an entire 4th game revolving around it

    Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag. Also, the sea battles in Assassin’s Creed: Odyssey are fantastic.

      Yup - Black Flag - half tempted to even purchase the remaster if that actually comes to fruition.

        I’d like a spin-off. Less land stuff and more sea stuff. Instead of the ‘armada’ thing, how about being able to buy or capture larger ships for personal use? Or being able to directly control 2-3 ships? Or fight large scale coordinated naval battles?

        That concept has so much more potential and I wish somebody would do more with it.

          They’ve been trying with skull and bones but it’s both in development hell, been delayed multiple times and even changed play styles over the years. I’m not hopeful sadly.

            And somehow Skull and Bones is coming out this month! Not getting it (cos its Ubisoft) but excited to see how the game will be taken in by the players, if at all…

    Its not quite a pirate game, but if you’re willing to expand your seach to include a nautical mystery game aboard a trading ship in 1807, than Return of the Obra Dinn is worth a look.

    Sid Meier’s Pirates! is a wonderful mix of exploration, sea battles, romance, swordplay, trade, and subterfuge.

    Tropico 2: Pirate Cove is one that I’ve only played briefly, but I remember it having such good style that I want to try it in depth some time.

    I sunk a lot of hours into Port Royale 2 many years ago. I’m not sure how well it holds up today or on its sequels. I think 3 was well received and 4 poorly.

    Age of Booty.

    Very different than what others are recommending. It’s a fun arcade game.

    Windward is pretty fun and under the radar.

    Sid Meier’s “Pirates!” is old as hell but still a great game.

      Pirates! is amazing

      • Capturing ships to make your own fleet
      • Searching for lost treasure
      • Many different ships and upgrades to choose from (go war canoe)
      • Sword fighting
      • Wooing governor’s daughters (somewhat similar in gameplay to sword fighting)
      • (mediocre) stealth and land battles
      • Free your family from the grasp of Baron Raymondo (Evil!)
      • Battle famous pirates and take their ships

        I played this on Xbox when it came out. It was a lot of fun but once my pirate got too old I couldn’t bring myself to start again.

    I read that title and thought you were asking where to download cracked versions of games.

      Nah :P I might be sailing the high seas from time to time, but never when it comes to indie games.
