Kalypso Media and Gaming Minds have released their seafaring trade management sim, Port Royale 4, on Windows PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.
This new installment in the long-running trade management series once again allows players to build a merchant empire across the 17th century Caribbean.
Advance the colonial agendas of France, England, Spain, or the Netherlands in the New World, all while making a hefty profit on the side. In addition to setting up trade routes and managing budding port towns, players can also take a more illicit path to accruing wealth by hoisting the Jolly Roger above their heavily armed private fleet.
