Plunder Panic, the 6v6 pirate-themed multiplayer arcade title from Will Winn Games, has received a suite of updates so enticing that legendary pirate queen Zheng Yi Sao herself wouldn’t be able to resist.
The latest Plunder Panic updates include:
New Game Modes:
- Rival Crews: Prove your crew of crusty corsairs are the kings of the seven seas with a tournament-style battle in a “best of” format. Players can choose between a best of 3, 5, 7, or 9 rounds, with no limits on victory conditions!
- Conquest: Pick from a selection of victory conditions and the first team to win — according to the selections — can claim victory! But beware: victory conditions cannot be repeated, which means each crew will need unique victories to win the day.
Some of the New Modify-Arrs Include:
- Dead Man’s Switch: When a pirate dies, a bundle of TNT appears to take revenge on their enemies — or become a handy tool for their continued domination
- Burning Man: Upon death a pirate will drop a Molotov Cocktail, ensuring a fiery demise for their foes
- Free Rum!: A swig of rum before battle certainly settles the nerves, but it also makes those sea legs a bit more wobbly than usual — each pirate begins the match drunk as a skunk
- Anger of the Gods: Each island will spawn a never-ending Cursed Idol, where lava rocks will never cease to spawn. The Idol can’t be thrown into the water, but you could throw it on the enemy ship…
- Poseidon’s Revenge: In a classic Uno Reverse Card move, the god of the sea has decided enough is enough and changes the direction of the lava rocks — now coming out of the water and shooting up into the air
- Low Gravity: “We’re whalers on the moon, We carry a harpoon, For there ain’t no whales. So we tell tall tales. And sing our whaling tune.” — turns the gravity down low for a floatier firefight
- High Tide: You can’t control the whims of the sea — this modify-arr raises the water level past the bottom of each island, making avoiding the salty deep more difficult
