Never content without a challenge, we wanted to tackle an entirely new genre for us\u2014vehicular locomotion\u2014and then, of course, we settled on high-seas combat like the masochistic nerds that we are.

Each is a figure of myth and might, fiercely devoted to their plundering way of life and the riches it brings in both spirit and treasure. You\u2019ll find out more about each Pirate Lord\u2019s unique backstory and magics in future features!<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the heat of battle, along with captaining an upgradable ship stocked with weapons such as flak cannons, ballistae, and axe-throwers, you can also channel the Pirate Lords\u2019 ancient powers to stir up exhilarating and devastating chaos. Turn the tide in your favor with massive ultimates: unleash mighty tsunamis, send enemies\u2019 ships flying in maelstroms, destroy hulls with bone spikes, and literally release the Kraken.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh6.googleusercontent.com\/9ZyCxkIAD1UgEgNse7oNxD05ypY1GTbolVn7PaF16dUUBG7tg0A4uvuGUv9BqPj7Og3TAcAatn6CaHfHcPixmj-iHDGHhLRVIHtFVqQXOdkYL07JukUdGJdtIk3CQNF_oXBSBT9v\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Battlewake <\/em>has several game modes to satisfy every kind of VR gamer.
