East India Company: Privateer Released

Paradox Interactive announced that "East India Company: Privateer" has been released, an expansion to Nitro’s naval strategy game "East India Company."

"The expansion introduces players to the nebulous world of the privateer, who forges alliances based solely on a thirst for fortune and will go to any length to see that his job is fulfilled.

Featuring new campaigns and commander skills, East India Company: Privateer offers players even more intense action on the high seas.

East India Company: Privateer Features:

• Two new campaigns in which you play the game as a privateer and complete missions for different nations.
• New missions, including destroying forts, locating and either sinking or capturing enemy ships, blockading enemy ports and escorting friendly fleets.
• New commander skills to fit the life of a privateer, such as ‘False Colors’, which allows the player to get close to the victim without them perceiving a threat, and ‘Critical Hit’, which gives the player a chance to hit an enemy ship’s magazine, causing the enemy ship to explode.

East India Company: Privateer requires the original game East India Company, which is available at 50% off during a limited time at most digital download portals. The expansion East India Company: Privateer will be exclusively available for digital download at all major digital download portals for a suggested retail price of €9.99 and $9.99."
