King of Seas tasks players with becoming king of the pirates in a world “filled with battles, lost islands and treasures.” The game features quests, procedurally generated locations and a dynamic world that “reacts to your every action” and adapts the difficulty to “give you a more challenging time.” From the looks of the trailer below, it seems players will be in command of a single vessel as they explore and battle.

King of Seas also features a branching skill tree, with over 20 skills to choose from, environmental hazards – such as rough seas and strong winds – that affect gameplay, and five types of ship that are all customisable through equipment and skills.

​The new partnership with Team17 will allow 3DCloud to work on “enhancing the gameplay” and also implement some quality-of-life features, such as a wider range of language support.

The King of Seas release date is this May, though no exact day has been specified just yet. It’s scheduled to release on PC, Xbox One, PS4 and Nintendo Switch with an RRP of £24.99 / €24.99 / $24.99 / $39.99AUS.
