Pirate Twist Sets Sail July 15 — Early Access in Two Weeks

Two Weeks to Early Access

Captains — set your charts. Pirate Twist sails into Early Access on July 15. It's been a long haul to get the ship seaworthy, and you've been aboard for the worst of the weather. Now the date is fixed and the horizon's in sight.

What's aboard at launch

  • The full loop — Sail, fight, survive the storms, dock, upgrade, and sail again.
  • A 3-sea campaign — Conquer three seas with your captain, then climb the New Game+ ladder as the threat scales to meet you.
  • Real naval combat — Broadside arcs, stern rakes that reward the bold, ammo that changes the fight, and a hull-bash ram for when the guns aren't enough.
  • Your ship, your build — Mount and dismount modules at Port, manage your hull, and rebuild after a sinking instead of starting from nothing. This is Early Access — the foundation is solid and the seas are open, and where we sail from here is a course we chart with the crew.

The one thing that helps most

If you do one thing today, wishlist Pirate Twist. It's not a small favour — a wishlist tells Steam the ship matters, lands you a notification the second we launch, and genuinely shapes how many other captains ever find us. ➤ Wishlist Pirate Twist on Steam Want a key before launch and a seat in the wardroom?
