"Pirate Bay" Campaign announced
Paradox Interactive and Nitro Games are thrilled to launch the official pre-order pack for East India Company™. The “Pirate Bay” bonus campaign will be included in all pre-orders via GamersGate, Steam, Impulse and Direct2Drive.
The “Pirate Bay” campaign starts in 1650 and gives players control over a frigate and level 2 pirate captain (commander) with the skills “Feared” and “Rout.” At the start of the game, the player fleet is located in the pirate port in northern Madagascar.
"East India Company did not originally have pirates as a playable faction as we wanted to concentrate on the actual companies. However, we received an incredible amount of feedback from people who told us how much they would love to play as pirates. It became clear that the best way to implement pirates as a playable faction was to make a separate campaign for them. The best part about the campaign is that you can actually compete against other players and find out who's the best pirate by uploading your points to EIC homepage afterwards,” said Kim Soares, lead designer of Nitro Games.
So hurry over to your favorite download site to secure your copy and bonus goodies now!
