Today, indie newcomer Will Winn Games has officially announced the release date for their pirate-themed multiplayer battle fest title, Plunder Panic — headed to PC via Steam on September 17th, 2021, and consoles in Q1 2022.
Plunder Panic pits two rival pirate crews of six against each other in a head-to-head battle for high seas supremacy! The game features multiple modes, a variety of weapons, enchanted items, unique power-ups, modifiers, and customizable team configurations — for hundreds of gameplay combinations. Online or on the couch, pirate crews can prove once and for all who deserves the moniker of the toughest crew on the great blue!
Inspired by classic SNES games, Plunder Panic blends retro graphics, arcadey action, and a boatload of online (and offline) gameplay modes and options to shiver even the most hardened pirates’ timbers. Two teams of up to six players must go all hands on deck and face off against each other, utilizing a variety of weapons, enchanted items, and power-ups. Quick, round-based matches begin as rival teams anchor their ships on the same island. Only the scurviest dogs will prevail once the action starts, with victory within reach if the rival team loses either too much of their gold, their ship gets scuttled, or if their precious captain takes a trip to Davy Jones’ locker. It’s up to teams to decide on an offensive or defensive approach!
