'Sea Of Legends' Is A Lighthearted Pirate Open-World Beck-building CRPG By Shadowrun & BattleTech Creator, Kickstarter Soon - Trailer

Sea Of Legends is a deck-building, open-world, role-playing game by a bunch of seasoned game designers known for Shadowrun, Deus Ex, and Darkest Dungeon.

Shadowrun, BattleTech, and Crimson Skies creator Jordan Weisman has revealed today his new video game, Sea of Legends, a deck-building, open-world, computer role-playing game in which the player charts a course of infamy developing their character from scallywag to pirate king in the Caribbean contested by the Crowns of Europe, the denizens of the deep, the undead, and worse.

Sea of Legends is being created by a team formed by seasoned adventure game storytellers and game developers including; Andrew McIntosh, Lead Writer of BATTLETECH, Shadowrun: Dragonfall, and Shadowrun: Hong Kong, Jeffery Campbell, Narrative Designer on Darkest Dungeon, Dead Rising 4, and Deus Ex: Mankind Divided, Kate Cruz, Senior Concept artist on Ubisoft’s Skull & Bones, Justin Gray, Design Consultant, and designer of Ascension, and Jordan Weisman himself. This is the first-ever video game based on the popular tabletop franchise that successfully crowdfunded two projects. 

Players’ pirate adventures will span the Caribbean Sea as they seek ships to plunder, towns to raid, ancient treasures to discover, lovers to woo, and nemesis to vanquish. Their character development and the crew they recruit will develop the card decks that drive naval combat, boarding actions, bar fights, deadly duels, and tactical combat against other pirates, Royal Navies, and the unnatural creatures they have aligned with.

The title, based on the narrative open-world board game created by Zach Weisman and Ryan Schapals, will launch a Kickstarter campaign on October 1, 2024. Players can now register their interest in the crowdfunding campaign.

The open-world deck-building CRPG is powered by Adventure Forge, the accessible, no-code video game authoring platform that aims to empower game masters, storytellers, authors, and artists to create their own narrative-rich video games. After three years of development and a successful closed beta, the platform will be available on Early Access via Steam this year, including assets and in-depth free guides and video tutorials to help game creators in their journey. 


Key Features:

  • Navigate the deadly politics waters, currying either favor or earning the wrath of the Kings and Queens of Europe.
  • Sail the waters of the Caribbean engaging in sea battles and boarding actions. 
  • Canvas the taverns of port towns for crew, rumors, gambling, and maybe romance. 
  • Raid towns for loot and information
  • Woo Lovers and defeat Nemeses 
  • Fight one-on-one duels of honor 
  • And beware of strange tides which bring all manner of strange creatures, ancient curses, and angry gods to the surface!

Sea Of Legends is in development for PC (Steam).
