• Create crew from 8 playable races, unlock 34 classes, learn & upgrade 150+ abilities, and equip 100+ passive abilities
  
• Build a devastating combat fleet of Ice Reavers and Sea Serpents – or sail past trouble with a small but swift fleet
  
• Serve under one of three factions, amass wealth as a trader, or become a reviled pirate
