In Pirate Blast, players must defeat Captain Greasebeard and his evil robotic Henchbots who are determined to take over Vile Isle amusement park. To avoid walking the plank, players must destroy as many of the Captain’s Henchbots and defeat Greasebeard in time for the park’s grand opening.

The game features eight chapters based in various environments, including a village, jungle, pirate cove and pirate ships. Each chapter features new villains to defeat as players work their way towards the final battle against Greasebeard. Along the way, players can discover bonus rooms and collect booty stolen by the pirates, such as health kits and special keys to replenish health. The special edition blaster bundle brings even more excitement to battles against Greasebeard and his Henchbots as players target their enemies with rapid-fire precision.

“Pirate Blast delivers the action-packed adventure and ruthless villainy that pirates are known for in a humorous storyline that’s appropriate for all ages,” said Mark Seremet, Zoo Games CEO. “When paired with the Blaster peripheral, Pirate Blast offers an even more unique and accessible shooter game experience.”
