Sharpen your cutlasses and ready the rum—Republic of Pirates is charting a course for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S on 25 September 2025. Already flying high on Steam and Epic, the swashbuckling city-builder with real-time naval battles is about to drop anchor on console.
Build a Pirate Utopia
Set in the Caribbean during the Golden Age of Piracy, Republic of Pirates drops you into a world where fractured pirate crews battle for dominance. Starting with just one ship and a chip on your shoulder, you’ll avenge your father’s murder and rebuild a new republic from the ground up.
Construct production buildings, meet the needs of your unruly citizens, and expand your archipelago empire across docks, depots, and distant islands. From simple shacks to sprawling hubs of industry, every choice pushes your pirate society further toward glory.
Take the Fight to the Seas
Of course, a republic without cannons is just a holiday resort. You’ll recruit heroic captains, assemble a fleet across eight unique ship classes, and test your tactics in real-time naval battles. Raid merchants, smash rival strongholds, and expand your influence—just don’t forget, betrayal is always one broadside away.
