'Man O' War: Corsair' Early Access Update Adds Custom Battles Mode

by Rainier on March 23, 2017 @ 8:20 a.m. PDT

Man O' War: Corsair is a naval combat game that explores the Warhammer world’s Great Western Ocean.

Man O’ War: Corsair is a video game of high adventure, naval combat and exploration based on the Games Workshop classic Man O’ War table top game. Play as a rogue Captain of the Empire or Champion of Chaos, personally navigating your vessel in third person across the Great Western Ocean while plundering enemy ships, visiting ports, trading and making legends of your deeds across the land and sea! Engage in boarding actions, with direct control over your Captain and take the fight to the enemy.

In Man O’ War: Corsair, players will explore a vast continent featuring over 50 unique ports. Featuring customisable characters, fleets of sailing vessels, cannons, spells and mystical creatures all clashing on an epic scale, but beware the very waters beneath your bows…

Here there be monsters....


We’re really excited about our new update,” said James Carroll, Director at Evil Twin Artworks. “We have been working hard throughout Man O' War: Corsair's development to get everything we promised into the game, as well as build as many of the features the community has asked for as we can. One of the features we have had planned from the beginning is finally here! In Custom Battles you can pick any fleet you want, choose the enemy of your choice and battle!
