Press Release
Ridgewood, NJ, May 8,
2012 – In Port Royale 3: Pirates and Merchants, the
upcoming empire-building game from Kalypso Media, players can choose
to rule the world in two campaigns – the Merchant or Adventurer (or
mix both for a third, hybrid play style). To succeed in either
campaign, players will need to be shrewd traders and politicians, as
they deal with a realistic economy and local governors. In today’s
walkthrough video (#3), we’re giving players an introduction to
both economics and politics in the game, showcasing the depth and
accessibility of both, in Port Royale 3. Kalypso will
release Port Royale 3: Pirates and Merchants, this summer for
console and Windows PC.

In Port Royale 3: Pirates and Merchants, players will embark upon an epic adventure through the Caribbean during the turbulent 17th century where the naval powers of Spain, England, France and the Netherlands all fight for supremacy in the colonies. Players take on the role of a young captain trying to build his fortune and reputation in the new world colonies. The campaign consists of two different paths for the young protagonist to follow: adventurer and trader.
Following the path of the adventurer will lead the player on a naval conquest where they must gain notoriety through raids, piracy, bounty hunting, plundering and conquering cities as they strive to build their new Caribbean empire.
The route of the trader sees the player using their economic know-how to become the most powerful trading tycoon in the New World by setting up trade routes, building production facilities and developing cites.
In free-play mode, the player crafts a combination of the two paths, creating a unique and challenging scenario on the path to increase wealth and power.
Features of Port Royale 3 Pirates and Merchants:
- Two different single player campaigns: Adventurer and Trader
- Naval battles, raids, plundering and invasions await the Adventurer, while the Trader will develop trade routes and the economy to earn glory, fortune and power
- 16 different ship types, such as powerful Galleons or versatile Frigates
- Organize trade with 60 different cities such as Port-au-Prince or Tortuga
- A comprehensive trade system, with supply and demand dynamically setting the price of goods and wares, like in the real world
